‘A story should be remembered for its soul, and not the bells and whistles.’
Storytelling and traveling go hand in hand, and my site is about being able to retell my experiences, my way.
About Following the Rivera — local italy travel tips
I began this site as a niche for flashpacker travelers.
It’s a niche of travel that enjoys boutique/luxury boutique hotels and glamping and looks for the best local food and wine experiences.
As my site has progressed, its focus has changed to local Italy travel and lifestyle content. Living in Italy, I have plenty of tips and knowledge to share with other travelers.
5 things to know about me
1. Rivera is my middle name. Rather than choosing something travel related, I wanted to make this personal to me.
2. I live in Italy, primarily north and part-time in Sicily. Saying that, expect plenty of local Italy content.
3. I’m a homebody. For somebody that likes to travel, there’s nothing I love more than being at home. I’m more ‘homad’ than nomad in this respect.
4. I love gelato and green peas — just not together.
5. Japan is my dream destination.
