CURRENT MISSION They always tell me, "Lace, life can't always be fun and happiness," and I couldn't disagree more...they just haven't traveled enough... ABOUT ME Trained in Nutrition. Obsessed with food culture and tradition. Passionate about Old World wines. Been on the road, traveling the world observing people eat/drink for 5 years (30 countries). Most recent adventures were spent living at a B& B/farm in Limousin, France—enjoying food and culture the French way, living the remote life in Alaska and working the wine harvest in Napa Valley. Whether cooking regional dishes in France to hunting the world’s largest rodent in Paraguay to studying Acupuncture in China—I always have stories to share of eating, living and loving well… PHILOSOPHY To make each day count. To experience, learn, grow and love.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I walked three pilgrimages in Spain and Portugal last spring. The experience lives within me everyday. I have seen a lot in my life, but the pilgrimage was one of my truest joys; it had love, community, nature, wine, traditional cuisine, new people, spirituality, tranquilty, challenge, movement, nature.... I dream of having an albergue on the camino one day!
Teach, Learn, Share
I studied natural nutrition and medicine. Have learned a lot during my travels from Chinese medicine, to cooking, to making wine, to making beds... full of ideas and inspiration.
