So the time has come for me to enter the blogging stratosphere, more precisely the well established food blogging world. Many an hour I have passed on food blogs around the web, getting inspired and getting hungry; and many an hour I have passed in the kitchen re-creating what I have seen. So much so I thought I could give it a go myself. So here I will be posting my food ideas, recipes and thoughts and hope to give to those that find this blog a little of the joy that I receive from food.

I am a UK student currently fortunate enough to have spent the past year studying in Valencia, Spain, overlooking one of the world’s greatest food markets – the Mercado Central. It has been a great inspiration and opened my eyes to how good food can actually be; the importance of eating with the seasons; of quality produce; of relationships with suppliers and how it can bring people together in a magical way. Not long remains of my time in Valencia, but I will try to convey my experiences to readers through seasonal Mediterranean cooking in the time I have left there and adjusting to the kitchen and food availability back on home soil.
