Ciao, welcome to my blog!
My name is Eleonora Baldwin, I am an American born and Italian raised, global citizen. As a food and lifestyle writer, journalist, blogger, and wanderlust addict based in Rome, I divide my time between writing food and lifestyle stories, guiding foodie adventures, and designing culinary vacations in Italy.
The 3rd edition of Frommer's Day by Day Guide to Rome, has already sold over 1 million copies since its release in January. In the complete Frommer's Italy 2013 I share insider tips and local knowledge. In the Holiday Goddess Handbag Guide, I provide interesting advice for bon vivants in the Rome chapter.
I started the blog Aglio, Olio e Peperoncino in January 2009, and you can read more about it on my FAQ page. I am the author / editor of several other blogs:
In these I write about Italian culinary customs and way of life, review restaurants, provide useful tools for parents traveling with kids in Rome, and capture the Eternal City's essence in my amateur photography.
