I write books for deeply curious Italy travelers who crave more than the typical Italian tourist traps.

For those foodies that enjoy the unique Trader Joe’s experience, I have a book for that too!

“Va dove ti porta il vento!”      Go Where the Wind takes you!  

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

“Polished, professional and thorough…”

“Patty has updated the way we think about traveling. It’s interesting she realized that as we age we travel differently than we did when we were in our 20’s. I know I do! I own a lot of travel books, but Patty’s are uniquely different. Polished, professional and thorough, we sure could have used these when were hosting forums in Italy!”

Patty’s books were written for the experienced traveler with an unquenchable sense of curiosity. Go deeper into the hard-to-understand Italian cities in the way that Patty, who brings 20 years of global history and archaeology to the table, has figured out how to do. Skip the touristy crowds and dive deep into Italy

I have used many of the old-school travel guides like DK and Rick Steves. And I have been to Rome before. Patty’s book is by far the best guide I have ever used. She actually opened up the city to me! This is a whole new way to look at how I travel. I have also purchased her guides to Florence and Venice which are equally excellent.
