I host private walks and slow days on Santorini for people who want to understand the island past its viewpoints: its inland villages, its makers, the rhythms most visitors miss.
I moved here to build a life, not take a holiday. I&#8217;ve learned who&#8217;s behind the doors, which farmer grows what, and when to arrive so a place feels like itself. I started as a translator, and in a way I still do it—I read a place and hand it back to you in words you can use.
I write about the people who make Santorini worth staying for.

Borgo Santo Pietro and the Rise of Luxury Borgos in Italy

Julia DeBari is a travel writer with an essayist&#8217;s instincts, drawn to the kind of cultural immersion that only comes from slowing down. After 25 years as a UX professional, she brings a researcher&#8217;s curiosity to unfamiliar places, paying close attention to how people actually live, eat, and gather. Her essays sit at the intersection of observation and reflection, shaped by traditional accommodations, local food, and the histories embedded in a place. It&#8217;s less about checking off destinations and more about noticing what a place reveals about being human.

Campari Hosting Campari Spritz Square in Nolita this Weekend

I am the idea behind and the co-founder of Mama Mancini’s. I am also a home cook, an obsessed entrepreneur, traveler, foodie, and I love sharing all of it with anyone who wants to listen. I believe passion fuels ideas and there is no such thing as a bad idea or too much passion. I look at the picture of my grandmother, Anna Mancini, holding me as a baby and think wow if my grandmother only knew that all those countless days of me learning how to cook by her side in Brooklyn would turn into this. After 25 years in the garment industry, I decided in 2007 it was time for a change. My idea: real meatballs made the authentic Italian way and sold in real sauce. To me there was no other way they should be offered, that was my big idea and Mama Mancini’s was born. The rest is history. So, I say this to everyone who has an idea: never give up; don’t listen to the people who say it won’t work. No idea is a bad idea and always chase your dreams. Let’s cook.
