Melanie Renzulli

Melanie Renzulli has been writing about Italy for more than 25 years. An Italophile is a lover of Italy, an admirer of Italian customs, traditions, and food. When I created Italofile, I wanted to build a resource—a file, if you will—where I could save, share, and write about my passion for Italy travel, art, culture, and living.
