Karin Leperi’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

Karin Leperi Pezo is an award-winning writer and photographer who captures a sense of people and place in her writings and visual captures. While the umbrella is food & travel, she feels that culture, cuisine, cruising, luxury and nature define a destination in unique ways that say why you must connect. She embraces color in telling the story, while diametrically seeking chromatic aberrance that screams a different tale.
