Naomi Sullivan

A former history professor who left academia when her husband's job relocated their family to Florence five years ago, Naomi began blogging as a way to document their experiences for relatives back home. Her unique perspective as an African American woman passionate about colonial history, combined with her family's adventures rock climbing across Europe and hunting for vintage treasures, attracted a devoted following of midlife travelers and families seeking meaningful cultural experiences. Now she balances tutoring local students in English with leading her family on carefully researched adventures that blend her love of history with her late-in-life discovery of outdoor sports.
