So watch out Australia we are coming home to open our own cooking school

thus adding another foodie option to what we already love to do.
So see you again Tokyo what an amazing city with an amazing food culture.What an amazing food journey Sandy and I have had since we started our 4 sector “Gap Year” way back in April 2013.

We have visited some 23 countries over 500ish days travelling the world for our ultimate international food journey.
This 1/4 along we have covered by plane, ship, car and on foot over 72,372km.
It is a huge privilege that I have not taken lightly to be able to have had such freedom in our lives to let us have a simply amazing experience.

We have visited so many amazing countries.

United Arab Emiratis, Italy, Switzerland, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, France, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Netherlands, Russia, Germany, Lithuania, Poland, Denmark, Finland, Latvia, Estonia, Sweden, Scotland, England, Japan.

We have learnt about so many different food cultures and for those of you who have followed my blog and put up with all the waffle I thankyou and I hope you too have learnt a wee tad also.

So when we meet again I'm sure we will have just a few food topics to chat about.

Love to you all ...

Most of all to my beautiful Sandy for being the one that had to have a international cooking gap year.
Thanks for the wonderful food memories, the interesting people we have meet along the way, the some 450 kitchens we have cooked in and the fabulous foodie information gathered together.

So it's back to the Retreats kitchen to cook up a storm and put in to practise what we have learnt and ultimately open our own cooking school with all that we have both learnt over the past few years.

My motto.

"If you don't ask you don't get"

So never say never ...

I may just have to have a gap year too!!!!
