The Italian Experiences

Italian Experiences Curator

As an established food stylist and lover of all things Italian, I have curated several exclusive cultural experiences in Piemonte and Florence.

Piemonte

After producing one of several episodes of an International Lifestyle TV programme in Piemonte, the home of ‘Slow Food’, I fell in love with this heavenly and relatively unknown region in far northwest Italy. Imagine spending 6 heavenly days in Italy with a renowned food stylist and a local Contessa, an art historian, as your guides.

5 magical nights will be spent in a glorious 16th-century villa surrounded by beautiful tranquil gardens. We have planned extraordinary experiences each day whilst leaving time to restore and explore on your own.
The experience includes a variety of uniquely curated activities such as visitations to private art collections & historical gardens, artisans, a classical concert, wine tasting, truffle hunts, a cooking class and more…
Limited to only 12, this travel treasure is designed to be intimate – exclusive yet relaxed. There will 2 Piemonte experiences in 2023 both of which take place in the gentle Autumn climate of September.
2024 tour – 20-26th September

Florence

My love for Florence began as an au pair with the Screti family in the heart of Florence where our lifelong friendship was established. The eldest daughter Contessa Nina Giusti de Marle is a passionate art historian. The Contessa and I will run a unique guided insight into Florentine art, architecture, culture and history.

We will be staying in a magnificent 16th-century villa just minutes from the historic city centre, surrounded by the most exquisite & tranquil gardens with vistas of Florence and the soft gentle rolling hills of Tuscany.

Together over 4 full days and 5 nights we will indulge in the ultimate sensory experience; opening your eyes, ears, hearts and appetites to all the delights this wonderful birthplace of the Italian Renaissance has to offer.
