Some people chase the sun. Instead, Julia chases flat whites, baked eggs and pho. If the sun is there too that's a bonus. Having contributed to various food, fashion and lifestyle publications (both print and online), as well as editing books and magazines, freelance writing allows her the welcome excuse to travel lots, eat more, and continually feed her adventurous spirit for both. Melbourne's food scene is just one reason she'll always call this place home.
