…was created to house the musings of Ashlinn Romagnoli. Originally a blog and podcast called Utopia: An Italian Study, Ash decided to rebrand in order to create space for all of her multimedia work on myriad subjects (hence the name).

about ash

Ashlinn was born in the US, grew up in Japan & Germany, and spent her adult life in New York & Nashville before hightailing it to the magical city of Turin, Italy.

She’s a chaos wrangler by trade and indulges pretty much all of her interests as they arise. Past dalliances have led to a book about expat relationships, an AI-powered graphic novel, a podcast about women of history and/or legend, and a brief stint as a voice actor during which she recorded over 25 audiobooks and various commercial projects.

She loves to read more than anything except for her husband (Adam), her cat (Ziggy Stardust), and her daughter (Aurelia).

Current particular areas of interest: chess and parenting. Subject to change without notice.
