CHI SONO?
My name is Donna and I live in the Piedmont region of Italy. I am a freelance writer working on a couple of books. In addition to what is on this site you can read some of my published work here, and some other writing here.
I also run the tour company
TourPiedmont.com. We do cooking classes with some amazing chefs and a couple of grandmothers. We visit farms and cheese makers, wineries and sometimes when the season is right we go in search of truffles. My focus is on great food and of course wine.
I work with small groups to be able to show the side of the Piedmont that only a local can.
Hopefully your travels will bring you to this beautiful corner of Italy

Salute!
