About Carolyn B. HellerCarolyn B. Heller is an avid traveler and passionate food lover who has eaten on the streets, in fine restaurants, and everywhere in between in nearly 40 countries.
Born and raised in the United States, she has swapped fairy tales with a Druze family in a Golan Heights village, lived with a family in France, and shared chunbing (pancakes) with a family in northeastern China. She has taverna-hopped on Crete and tapas-bar-hopped across Spain, taken cooking lessons on the island of Grenada, and learned to sail in British Columbia. She has crisscrossed the US multiple times, including a six-week mother-daughter road trip with her pre-teen twins, where they ate mashed potatoes with gravy in 14 states while searching for the perfect strawberry pie. When she's not on the road, Carolyn lives with her husband and daughters in Vancouver, BC, where she's trying to learn enough Mandarin to read the specials on restaurant walls.
Carolyn has been a full-time freelance travel, food, and feature writer since 1996. She's a member of the Authors Guild and the Travel Media Association of Canada. For a more complete list of credits, see Carolyn's LinkedIn profile. |
