Ciao, I’m Debbie.

I have always strived to live by the premise: ‘Live an ordinary life in an extraordinary way.’

I am a travel, food and lifestyle writer and, of course, I am always willing to write about wine. No coincidence then that I found myself smack-bam in Italy’s SLOW green heart bursting with vines.

It is a great honour to be able to share the magic of Villa Gioiella with you. I will do everything to make your holiday experience as local and as real as possible by sharing with you all my top tips and handy hints for travelling around the Umbria Tuscany border and beyond.
