About

My travels began early. I think my first plane ride was at 3 months old to Disney World. Needless to say, I do not remember the magic of Disney on that visit.

My passion for travel and writing began a few years later with family vacations across the United States and Europe. Those family vacations expanded my ideas about travel, specifically after a visit to Rome. When Audrey Hepburn’s character in the movie Roman Holiday is asked which city she enjoyed most on her tour, she adamantly responds, “Rome, by all means, Rome.” I developed this absoluteness for Rome, but more specifically for Italy.

The first opportunity I had to go live in Italy came in college, where I spent over a year  studying in some of Italy’s most idyllic locales of Florence, Sorrento and Sicily while becoming fluent in Italian.

SuzyGuese.com showcases people and places from around the world not in the ordinary, travel guidebook sense. I am fascinated by the simple way a story can be told, usually with a little humor.

My ultimate goal is to transport readers into a place, whether they can visit one day physically or just emotionally. It is in this light I approach all posts, presenting readers not just with practical information, but with the stories that follow when travel begins.

More often than not, my travels are laced with hints of a redheaded temperament. Annoyance, temper, sarcasm or passion may weave their way into my articles, enough proof that my hair color is indeed natural.

Currently I write for several online publications while constantly wandering the world in search of stories, sarcasm and spirit just waiting to be placed in written form. Enjoy reading and please let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment.
