Melbourne and North-East Victorian food blog, focusing on making world cuisine on a budget, preferably with home grown ingredients.

I'm a graduate medical student, having been an arts student studying Arabic, politics and psychology in what feels like a previous life. I ponder occasionally why I have chosen the student life for over a decade, but the wonderful experiences and travel that await will make it all worthwhile.

So far, I've spent a few years in Africa, travelled the world a little, with more to come. I'm currently living in rural Victoria with a wonderful fiance and a cheeky husky puppy.
