About Me

Welcome readers!  Thank you so much for choosing Not my Grandmother's Italy as your go to guide for fun and practical information about living in Italy.  

​

Annamaria Borelli is a proud Italian American from Long Branch, New Jersey.  In 2010 Annamaria had the once in a lifetime opportunity to study at John Cabot University and from that point on has lived in Italy ever since.  

​

Now, in 2023 with a degree in Italian and a job in Bari, Italy teaching English, Annamaria decided to chronicle her adventures in Italy and inspire other Expats to do the same.
