About Nicola
At home in France for more than half her life, Nicola lives in a village overlooking Lake Geneva. Hiking, trail running and skiing in the French and Swiss Alps, dining incognito in the next best Parisian bistro, and drinking with Etna winegrowers in Sicily are all part of her work as a freelance writer, editor and destination expert. You'll mostly find her in France, Switzerland and Italy—invariably up a mountain, in an ice-cold lake or on a train.
Nicola has authored more than 100 guidebooks for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¼´Ê±¿ª½± (including Paris, Bordeaux, France, Best Day Walks France, Sicily, Florence & Tuscany, Italy, and Switzerland) and is a regular contributor to its aspirational coffee-table titles (Eat France, 24h Paris, The Joy of Quiet Places, The Joy of Gardens, The Joy of Swimming, You Only Live Once, The Guide to Life). Her work regularly appears in BBC Travel, National Geographic Traveller (UK), Wanderlust and the Telegraph, where she works as a destination expert.
