Paul Gentile loves to travel. He and his wife have been traveling and exploring all life has to offer . He was in the Coast Guard after college, expanding his world and beginning a life-time love affair with the sea. Paul moved up through various positions in education; teaching, counselling, college admissions, and eventually Dean, and he wrote numerous articles on education and economic development for area newspapers. Upon retirement, Paul and his wife decided to return to Italy, enroll in a cooking school, hike the Tuscan country side, swim the Amalfi coast, and  find Paul's roots. Upon returning, h would write about it.

The result - the book, Dolce Far Niente: Sweet Doing Nothing. Paul speaks at Libraries, clubs and organizations on travel topics and expanding upon the book; working as much as ever, and enjoying every day. He splits his time between suburban Pittsburgh, PA and Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. After over a year and a half of doing research and traveling to the locations where his grandparents lived, he wrote a second book, "Salvatore and Maria: Finding Paradise. It is their story, the story of the immigrant experience, and raising a family through hardship and challenges.
