Ep. 3 - In the Heart of the Souks: Ancient Herbalism in a Modern World — Marrakech, Morocco
Saison 1 · Épisode 3
mardi 3 juin 2025 • Durée 19:31
In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Hichem, a third-generation Moroccan herbalist whose spice shop sits in the spice markets of Rahba Kedima Square—a vibrant and storied spiced market tucked away in the heart of Marrakech’s Medina, not too far from the famed Jamaa el-Fna square.
We walk together through the shelves of his apothecary—lined with saffron, rose, cumin, eucalyptus crystals, tinctures, and secret blends passed down through generations. Hichem shares the roots of his family’s herbal lineage, the traditional uses of Moroccan remedies, and how travelers can integrate these rituals into their own lives.
He also offers his favorite recommendations for exploring Morocco.
You can find him on the south side of the market, across from Café des Épices and a little east.

Ep. 2 - Brewing a New Chapter of Italian Coffee with Francesco Sanapo of Ditta Artigianale — Florence, Italy
Saison 1 · Épisode 2
mardi 27 mai 2025 • Durée 59:47
This week on the Sapore Podcast, I sit down with the brilliant and bold Francesco Sanapo—founder of Ditta Artigianale, three-time Italian barista champion, and a man redefining what it means to be an artisan in the heart of Florence.
Born into coffee—his father behind a bar in Puglia, his mother with her moka pot—Francesco’s story is one of deep roots and radical re-imagination. In this conversation, we explore the ritual of coffee, the memory it holds, and the movement it inspires—from the first sip of a morning espresso to the global journeys behind each bean.
We talk about:
How losing his first competition set him on the path to mastery
What coffee means beyond the caffeine
Why he trains every team member in craft and culture
How a skeptical Florentine became one of Ditta’s most loyal customers
The future of Italian coffee—and what it means to honor tradition while rewriting it
Francesco shares stories from his travels to origin countries, what it's like to sit down with farmers over beers and meals, and what he’s learned about humanity through the lens of the cup.
Whether you’re a coffee lover, a ritual romantic, or simply someone who appreciates a well-crafted experience, this episode will make you want to slow down, savor, and sip with intention.

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

In this week's episode, I'm joined by the incredible Sana Benzaitar, the founder and visionary behind Studio Sana Benzaitar in Marrakech.

In this conversation, we talk about Sana growing up in the souk surrounded by artisans, the stories woven into each of her rugs, the power of women's hands in craft, and how design can bridge culture, history, and story.
Sana shares her journey of returning to Morocco to reclaim and elevate the artistry of her roots, and how she's shifting the narrative around Moroccan craftsmanship one thread at a time.

Ep. 8 – Scent as Ritual: Perfume, Memory, and Essence with Sileno Cheloni — Florence, Italy
Saison 1 · Épisode 8
mardi 15 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:10:48
In this intimate and sensory-rich conversation, we sit down with Sileno Cheloni, a master perfumer based in the San Niccolò neighborhood of Florence, Italy. A true alchemist of emotion, Sileno creates more than fragrance—he creates experiences, memory portals, and personalized rituals that connect us back to ourselves.
With a background rooted in artistry and a spiritual lineage shaped by a Sufi master in Cyprus, Sileno approaches scent not just as an olfactory craft but as a profound medium of presence, intuition, and transformation.
In this episode, we explore:
The sacred roots of perfumery as emotional connection and presence
How Florence shaped the world’s olfactory legacy (and why it’s still a place of creative birth)
What scent teaches us about slowing down, deep knowing, and living consciously
Why Sileno doesn’t memorize his scents—and how that keeps his work intuitive and alive
His fragrance organ with over 190 notes and how he guides clients to create a custom scent
Ritual, memory, and sensory storytelling through incense ceremonies and dinner experiences
The importance of living your art as a game—with joy, depth, and discernment
A peek into his most meaningful travels, materials, and encounters (from Oman to the silent valleys of the East)
What Florence might smell like—and why he once tried to gift the city its own perfume
Sileno invites us into a slower, more sensory way of living—where scent becomes a compass, a ceremony, and a poetic rebellion against the commercial noise of modern life.
This is not just an episode about perfume. It’s about remembering our essence.
Ep. 7 - Pasta With Pasta: Rewriting the Rules in Florence’s Food Scene: Matilde Pettini of Dalla Lola — Florence, Italy
Saison 1 · Épisode 7
mardi 8 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:17:22
In this heartfelt episode of Sapore, we sit down in the heart of Florence with fourth-generation chef and culinary visionary Matilde Pettini, the founder of Dalla Lola—a soulful, rebellious little restaurant tucked in the Oltrano neighborhood.
Matilde is not just a chef—she’s a force of flavor, feeling, and fierce Florentine spirit. Born into a family legacy that includes the iconic Trattoria Cammillo, Matilde carved her own path by opening Dalla Lola at just 26 years old. What started as a study project quickly became a living, breathing culinary space that celebrates local life, shared tables, tiny rebellions, and the essence of Florence.
In this conversation, we explore:
How Matilde’s restaurant began as a feeling—rooted in memory and transformed into a space for community and connection
Her take on “project vs. restaurant” and why she keeps Dalla Lola affordable for locals
Florence’s over-tourism crisis, gentrification, and what it means to be a conscious traveler
Building an intentional team and cultivating a space where joy, play, and deep care are central
Pasta with pasta (yes, really) and how creative risk keeps the menu alive
Her dream for the future of hospitality: more women, more reverence, less ego
Natural wine adventures and a soon-to-launch collaborative project with a beloved sommelier
What it means to inherit a culinary legacy—and choose your own way
This is a full-circle story of flavor, family, and feminine rebellion. If you’re craving something real and tender and wild—this one’s for you.
Ep. 6 - Light & Lens: A Life of Travel and Storytelling Through the Eyes of Photographer Ulf Svane — Bangkok & Copenhagen
mardi 1 juillet 2025 • Durée 42:12
This week on the Sapore Podcast, I’m joined by Ulf Svane, a Danish photographer and visual storyteller whose work spans the globe—from the rice fields of northern Thailand to the windswept Nordic coasts.
Originally from Copenhagen and also based in Southeast Asia, Ulf’s photography captures the intimacy of food, place, and people with a signature use of rich color, natural light, and deep attentiveness. His images have appeared in National Geographic, Food & Wine, The Washington Post, Bloomberg, and Condé Nast Traveler.
In this conversation, we talk about:
His early love of travel and how a camera became his constant companion
How photography has helped him process emotion, place, and belonging
What he’s learned about slowness, trust, and intuition while shooting across cultures
The importance of quiet observation and bearing witness with humility
Why photography is as much about listening as it is about looking
We also dive into stories from the field—from working with farmers in the north of Thailand to collaborating with editors and chefs across the world—and reflect on the emotional weight that images can hold when they come from a place of deep presence.
This episode is a meditation on global living, stillness, story, and the lens as a tool for connection.
Ep. 5 - In Vino, Vita: The Slow Magic of Natural Wine in Italy with Sommelier Gianni Morosini — Florence, Italy
Saison 1 · Épisode 5
mardi 24 juin 2025 • Durée 01:37:04
This week on the Sapore Podcast, I’m joined by Gianni Morosini—a natural wine sommelier in Florence’s evolving food and wine scene.
After living sober until the age of 40, Gianni discovered the world of natural wine and never looked back. What began as a quiet curiosity has become a full-hearted philosophy rooted in slowness, storytelling, and a reverence for the land.
We first met at a restaurant tucked away in Oltrano in Florence, Italy, where Gianni’s intuitive and enthusiastic approach to wine left a lasting impression—curating wine lists, collaborating with producers, and introducing others to the wild, beautiful world of natural wine.
In this conversation, we talk about:
His unlikely journey into the world of wine at 40
Why natural wine resonated so deeply with him
How he selects bottles based on quality, sustainability, emotional connection, and land stewardship
Why slowness, presence, and care matter more than perfection
The magic of tasting wine with someone who truly sees it as a living thing
In the second half of the episode, we taste a variety of natural wines together—each one carrying a story of land, time, and intention:
A wine aged underground in volcanic terrain
A bottle infused with bee pollen and honey
Producers reimagining what wine can be when we listen to nature
This episode is a meditation on taste, transformation, and the soulful beauty of drinking close to the earth.
Get in touch with Gianni:

Saison 1 · Épisode 4
mardi 10 juin 2025 • Durée 51:44
This week on the Sapore Podcast, I’m joined by the magnetic and multifaceted Molly Molloy—a British fashion designer and creative visionary who has called Milan home for two decades.
From her early days at Central Saint Martins to pivotal roles at Bella Freud, Betty Jackson, and as Design Director of Womenswear at Marni to co-founding Colville, Molly’s career has been shaped by a deep reverence for craft, an eye for color, and a soul anchored in storytelling.
In this conversation, we talk about:
Her journey from a small English village to the heart of Milan’s fashion scene
The early days of London’s Britpop-fueled creative explosion
How working at Marni shaped her love for artisans and Italian aesthetics
Stories of working with craftswomen from Colombia to Bangladesh
What fashion really means as a language of individuality, memory, and meaning
In this conversation, we explore the textures of a creative life in Milan—from global artisan collaboration and ethical fashion to feminine rebellion and the quiet poetry of living and designing with intention.
