Hi, my name is Lucia, but everyone calls me Lucy. I was born in the beautiful region of Campania in southern Italy, in the province of Naples, and grew up between the United States and Italy. These days I live in the lovely city of Verona in the north of Italy.
My passion in life is traveling and sharing my experiences with others. I work as a travel blogger, content creator, and online Italian tutor.
Writing has been my favorite thing for as long as I can remember. I love telling stories about my travels and writing about all the wonderful places I've been.
I'm a very emotional person, so I feel experiences very deeply and they stay with me forever. For me, every journey leaves a little piece of my heart behind.
I started my blog Italia Like A Local because I wanted to share my experiences and feelings, and show Italy through the eyes of those who live here. I hope my stories and advice will inspire you to explore this beautiful country!
