While living in London, Amy traveled extensively across Europe and beyond and was an active member of the original Chowhound community in her ongoing quest for authentic and memorable food.

Amy continues to combine her passion for travel, food, and running by planning trips around the world to compete in half marathons while savoring the best in local food and drink.
