Wanderer & Wonderer
For as long as I can remember, I have been a wanderer & a wonderer. Since my youth, I’ve wanted to travel the world and revel in all the beauty to be found throughout it. Now I get to do that, and you know what’s even better? I get to write about it!
Travel & Food
To me the two go hand-in-hand. Why travel but to eat new foods in new places? Why not travel to eat? The relationship between food and travel is an exciting one!
Food at Home?
But we can’t always be on the road trying exotic new bites can we? Sometimes I write about food at home, current food & drink trends, and lovely cooking practices.
My Background
I came to this line of work quite organically— pardon the pun. I have formal training in Fine Art and Writing, and I also have an extensive background in the hospitality industry. I have worked in cafes in the Pacific Northwest and the American South. I also have a spot of formal wine training. Over the years, my experience and growth in the food industry naturally led to writing about food. And my passion for traveling the world led to writing about travel.
Photography Though?
Yes! I do take pictures of my food… and my travels. My formal training in Fine Art (a.k.a. that uber-practical college degree) focused on photography. I apply those skills to my work , and often my writing is accompanied by photos I took.
Like this lovely little film photo I snapped at a coffee shop in Orange County this past August.
In Conclusion
I’m so happy you’ve tuned into my little corner of the internet. Stick around if you want to read all things food, travel, coffee, and photography related. Who knows, maybe we’ll even wander off into other subjects I love like classic literature or reality TV. My tastes are varied.
