Sylvie Hogg has been collecting and sharing the best travel experiences in Italy for more than a decade. She is the author of Frommer's Italy Day by Day and Frommer's Rome Day by Day and has contributed to numerous other print and online publications about Rome and Italy, including MTV Italy, for which she received in 2007 the Society of American Travel Writer's Lowell Thomas Award. Working as a tour guide in Rome through much of her twenties, she developed an addiction to Italy's well-known history and culture and spent many a weekend exploring the country's best-kept secrets, its fabulous islands. Sylvie now lives in Kansas City, where she writes ( Food Lovers' Guide to Kansas City ), teaches Italian, and is a travel consultant. Her trusty "research assistants," her husband and young son, have also logged many nautical miles on ferries and hydrofoils around the islands of Italy. See less
