Bailey Alexander was born in Santa Rosa, California and raised in Seattle. In 2002 she and her husband Francis sailed across the Atlantic aboard their 43 Nauticat with two small dogs named Colette and Godot. They enjoyed a nomadic lifestyle in Europe in places like Paris, Rome, Geneva and Prague.

Formerly nomadic, she now lives happily on Lake Garda in northern Italy with their next generation of papillons; Gigi and Gastone.

Bailey and Francis have a podcast called “A Couple of Europhiles’ and she continues to document her life through writing and photography.
