I am the author of The Spice Spoon, a food-memoir-style blog based on my gypsy lifetyle and my Pakistani-Afghan-with-a-hint-of-Iranian background. I am a homecook who adores to feed my family and friends.
I recently spent 6 1/2 lovely years working and living in Rome. I grew up in Africa, Asia, America and Europe.
