This blog is part diary, part photo story, as well as an investigation into my corporal body while getting to know culinary identity of the island. I want to get intimate with the land and the abundant sustenance it grows as well as what people have used traditionally and still use to nourish their bodies.

I have relocated to the land of my ancestors while I pursue in internship in the nutrition field. Thankfully I chose a career path that I am genuinely curious about. This blog serves as an extension of what I think about on a daily basis... FOOD. Where it comes from, how people access it, and how they eat it.

​

The blog posts shared here are meant to be read in order from oldest to newest. They serve as a documentation of my thoughts and questions that arise as I spend more time here and continue to grow on each other. I'm excited to see where this investigation takes me.
