Karin Charlotte Hvam

My name is Karin Charlotte Hvam. I am a Danish author, journalist, former model, translator and creative entrepreneur living in Italy. I write books across several genres, especially chick lit, children’s books, mindfulness and personal development. My work often explores strong women, reinvention, motherhood, love, humour and the courage to begin again. I have worked for many years in communication, teaching, translation, and writing, and I was also inspired by my work with the well-known Danish family therapist and child psychologist Jesper Juul.
Today, I am developing La Caserma delle Arti in Lacedonia, Southern Italy: a cultural project that will transform a former barracks into a creative B&B, artistic residence, and meeting place for writers, artists, travellers, children, and people seeking beauty, peace, and inspiration.
My dream is to create a place where culture, creativity and human connection can bring new life to a historic building and to the local community.
