Travel through stories, flavors, and cities with Gli Charmen
There's a way to travel that isn't just about the miles traveled, but about the stories you encounter and the flavors you savor along the way. This is what Gli Charmen , a duo made up of Mattia Lorenzetti and Guido Prosperi , teach us. They are two curious travelers, lovers of culture and beauty, capable of transforming every experience into a story.
With Giaconi Editore they have signed two different but complementary books: Ricette in Valigia and Boston – Le Guide di Charmen , both dedicated to those who love to explore the world with an open mind and palate.
Recipes in your suitcase. A journey through cuisines and cultures.
With Ricette in Valigia , Gli Charmen takes us to the table around the world: every dish is a story, every recipe a passport to a new encounter. Through anecdotes, curiosities, and distant aromas, the book becomes a tale of travels experienced and shared flavors, an invitation to discover how cuisine is a universal language capable of uniting people.
It is no coincidence that Ricette in Valigia was included by TGCOM24 among the 10 books of 2024 to save , and the authors also talked about it on Uno Mattina on Rai Uno and X Style on Canale 5 , bringing their passion for discovery and conviviality to TV.

Boston: the first guide signed by Charmen
With Boston , the first volume in the Charmen Guides series, the duo takes us overseas, to one of the most fascinating and multicultural cities in the United States.
But don't expect the usual tour guide: their perspective is personal, narrative, full of authentic details that only a curious traveler would notice. Boston thus becomes a city to explore even from home, through pages brimming with history, innovation, and humanity.
The Charmen also talked about this project to Radio Bla Bla Network , describing how their way of describing places with sensitivity and irony was born.
An invitation to set out – with your mind, with your heart, with your taste
With these two books, Gli Charmen remind us that travel is more than just moving: it's learning, savoring, and telling stories . It's packing other people's stories into your suitcase and returning home a little different.
“Ricette in Valigia” and “Boston – Le Guide di Charmen” are therefore two stages of a single journey: that of curiosity, beauty, and sharing—values that Giaconi Editore is happy to support and spread.
