I’m coming to Rome and would like to book a private culinary tour with you, do you do that sort of thing?
Yes, I do! Visit my Food Tours page to find out more. I work with a lot of chefs and restaurant owners. This means be in for some serious ‘research.’ (Yes, I mean eating and drinking)
I’m coming to Rome, can you recommend some restaurants?
With pleasure! You’ll find all of my favorites on my apps, Eat Italy. If you’d like me to devise something more personalized, I do that too, for a fee. Just send me an email and I’ll let you know the details.
How do you decide what to write about?
Usually, I just write about what I’m doing on a day to day basis. What I’m cooking, what shows I’m seeing, what shops I’ve visited. But I’m always open to suggestions, so if there’s something you’d like me to cover, just drop me an email.
I have a question, can I write to you?
If it’s a question about a specific post, then just comment. That way I can answer you, and at the same time, other people can benefit. If it’s a general question about Rome, then please do go through my past entries. If it’s a specific question about restaurants, then I invite you to buy my apps. If the question is about planning your trip and narrowing down your choices, I can help you work out an itinerary. See my Food Tours page to find out more.
I have written to you, but you haven’t responded. Is there a problem?
I usually respond to emails within 48 hours. So if you haven’t heard from me, then yes, there may be a problem. Unfortunately, both AOL and COMCAST regularly blocks my emails coming from Europe. So if you have written to be from one of those two types of addresses, chances are that I’ve written to you but the email has bounced back. If you can please write to me with an alternative email address, that should solve the problem.
I really like your photographs, can I use them without asking your permission?
No, you can’t. I don’t like putting those ugly watermarks on my pretty pictures, even though I know that would discourage people from using them. If you really do want to use one of my photos, just drop me a line and ask. As long as you give me credit and it’s something that I’m interested in too, then I’m happy to share.
Do you review restaurants?
I don’t do traditional reviews on my blog. . Instead I usually just write about places I’ve been to and liked.
And what about hotels?
Again, I invite you to download my apps.
Where are you from? How’d you end up in Rome?
See my about page, and – even better – buy my book Restoring a Home in Italy
