Florencewalks -- four intimate walking tours of one of the world's most romantic cities -- was my first published book. The idea was to slow down, look around, and be curious. I write articles on art and, most recently, created an immersive walking tour with costumed actors popping up around the street corners of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. I love providing the setting for a walker to become an actor in a theatrical scene where he or she experiences the surroundings in a fresh, exciting, new way.
