About

Hi, I’m Valentina, thanks for being here!

Born and raised in Northern Italy, I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in November 2015 to follow my UI designer husband who got a job in the most perfect area of the world he could ever get.

I’ve been a ballet dancer and teacher until the age of 22, then I got passionate about food and 5 years later I had the luck to write a cookbook about vegan bowls.

My visa doesn’t allow me to work, so I spend my days writing and Instagramming about sustainable fashion, healthy cooking, green beauty and more.

Since July 2018 I’m a blogger at The Minimalist Wardrobe.
