Living the Italian dream
Ciao! I've been living the Italian dream this week ... from right here in my office in North London. Italy is a truly captivating place and holds some very fond memories for me, such as devouring fresh seafood in charming coastal villages, making handmade pasta, and tasting my way through endless local delicacies. I can easily say it's one of my favourite food destinations.
If you love Italy as much as I do – or long to visit one day – then I've got lots of treats in store for you over on Khoollect this week. As a country famed for their delicious down-to-earth cuisine, haute couture fashion, talented designers, cooks and creatives, I'm excited to share lots of Italian inspiration with you – including, of course, some delicious recipes and the chance to win a copy of a wonderful new Roman-influenced cookbook.
So pop over to Khoollect and check out what the team and I have been working on from afar. Or, you can delve into some of my favourite features below:

You can also read Eleonora's tips on touring Rome or try your hand at her tasty Tortino Verdure recipe.
