Synopsis

Accompany American Lee McIntyre as she completes her anything-but-routine daily errands in Bolzano/Bozen, Italy. Her story isn't the classic one of an American ex-pat moving to Italy to restore a farmhouse or seek love and romance. But when her husband is given a chance to take a job in Bolzano/Bozen, Lee takes a sabbatical from her high-tech career and sets about to master not only Italian, but also the ins and outs of the language of life in the South Tyrol. In this book, we'll follow Lee on her everyday expeditions to get a taste of Lee's life on a gelato diet.

About the Author:

L. Lee McIntyre is an American photographer born in New Jersey, who went from spending summers as a child travelling up and down the Eastern United States to roaming around the world. At last count, she's been to 5 continents and lived in 5 different countries; she's travelled and taken photographs in at least 20 more. Along the way, she worked as a pianist, musical director, freelance journalist, visiting professor of Linguistics, ESL teacher, and software designer before turning to photography fulltime. Lee currently lives in Germany, where she writes books, takes photos, conducts photography workshops, and gives lectures on the history of American photography, when she's not busy trying to master doing all sorts of everyday expeditions in German -- but without that daily scoop of gelato. To celebrate the release of her book "Life on a Gelato Diet," Lee is offering a free companion photoblog with photos from Bolzano, Italy at http://www.clfoto.net/gelatodiet/.
