I’m an Italian and I grew up in Naples, where my family owned a renowned pasticceria (cake shop). As a child I would race back from school to watch the pastry chefs making and decorating the cakes, which I would then try to recreate at home.

I am a trained carpenter and landscaper, and I recently moved with my cocker spaniel Olive into a shack on Seasalter beach near Whitstable on the Kent Coast.
I’m currently looking after my neighbour’s vegetable plot (while she is locked down in London), each week I will be sending a ‘vegetable patch report’: what’s surviving & what’s thriving!
I will also be documenting and narrating my coastal meanders with Olive to immerse the listener in our surroundings, describing all that can be seen, heard and even smelt!
