In the first episode of Roam + Golightly: A Podcast For Creative Adventurers, Ziza Bauer and I discuss her winding road from med student to online managing editor of Darling Magazine, as well our undying love for Italy and slow living. As someone who's had the hugest lady crush on Ziza's wordsmith skills and wandering ways, I can honestly say there couldn't be anyone more perfect to kick off season one's first episode!
