Cooking and health food blogs-this flowed as a natural progression from my internship on an organic farm. How the food we buy and eat is connected to food security, sustainable farming issues, and climate change. Media-such as journalism and writing, how social media is used and changes perceptions on world issues such as food systems and education reform. Reading and writing-I particularly enjoy fiction and memoirs. My draw towards books and writing is about story telling Music-I absolutely love music and find the way it can help connect people and spread ideas fascinating.
