About me

Flavia Giordano born in Bari (Italy), living in Sweden, is a free-thinker foodie and a nomad pasta artisan between Italy and Nordic countries, where she spreads the love for the Italian food through cooking classes, events, lectures and food trips to Puglia, her native region.

She writes about food and gastronomy for both magazines and publishers since 2005, also coordinating editorial projects for companies and institutions to promote Italian food culture and diversity.

Cheese and extra virgin olive oil taster, she strongly believes that eating (and cooking) is an agricultural act since she worked for Coldiretti, contributing to create the first Southern Italian educational farm network (called masserie didattiche).

In more than 15 years working in the gastronomy field, tourism and communication, she has been cooperating with several companies and institutions, in Italy, the Nordic countries and the world, as:
Lund University, Eataly, Radisson Hotel, Cookpad, Rema 1000, Samsung, Italian National Research Council (CNR), Musée national de l’histoire de l’immigration, Action Aid, Expo Milano, BBC Good Food, Feltrinelli, Giunti Editore, Skånes Matfestival, Medborgan Skolan, San Pellegrino, Coldiretti, Unioncamere, Regione Puglia, Pomì.
