MEET LAUREN FAHRER

I love to travel, write and cook. So far I have been to 51 countries and counting. Each country I go to I try and take a cooking class. You learn so much more about the people and culture when you learn about their food. Yep that’s me eating a bug in Vietnam (I lost a bet). In Paris I’m learning to make appetizers and in Turkey going to the public market then to cook what we bought! The camel ride in the Sahara was a highlight. I have made lifelong friends along the way. One good friend I met in the Outback of Australia in 1986 and we are still friends. They live in New Zealand and we see each other often. Enjoy the video of Milford Sound.

I am a very creative person and sew for a hobby, quilts mostly. We meet once a week in Danville and women from all walks of life take part. I’ve even sold a house or two from this group.

Lastly, I enjoy writing. I meet up with another group of women once a week for a creative writers workshop. I have had one short story published and have been officially turned down by Simon and Schuster Publishing. I have their rejection letter framed!
