About your host, Sandra: "I grown up in northern Tuscany and I started cooking when I was little with my parents, who were enthusiast cooks. After several years in Milan and Matera, I moved to Rome. Having travelled in many regions, I have a broad knowledge of the Italian cuisine, especially the culinary traditions that characterize the area at the boarder between Tuscany and Liguria. I can't wait to host you in Rome and guide you through the taste and flavors of my country!"
