Around the World in Meals

The idea of this blog is to enjoy typical meals with people of different nationalities, touching on cuisine, culture and identity. The project started in the Netherlands and moved with me to the UK, Sierra Leone, Germany and back again to the Netherlands! Both a culinary journey for me personally and a way to shed a more positive light on our multicultural society. Looking for a certain nationality? Use the search bar in the top left corner!
