Amy Hill

A Forsyth Woman writer since 2020, Amy earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in human resources from Western Carolina University. She has been an avid writer since childhood and currently focuses primarily on travel topics. When she’s not writing, Amy spends her free time researching and planning for her next adventure. During a two-week solo backpacking trip to southern Italy in November 2021, a brief stay in the ancient city of Matera in Italy’s Basilicata region awakened her intense interest in Italian culture, cuisine, and the language. Taking an off-the-beaten-path approach, she aspires to fully explore Italy’s lesser-known parts in the future and share travel tips she has learned with readers along the way.
