SANDRA MARONE
Cook and Natural Therapist
I began to be interested in cooking when I was 4 years old, in my maternal grandmother’s kitchen in Colombia among delicious, fragrant delicacies of all kinds. It was always from her that I began to collect wild herbs to play with, and as I grew up, my curiosity increased, so I began to explore the flavors of various cuisines. Around the age of 19, I encountered Macrobiotic Cuisine, also full of the philosophy of the connection of food with the elements and with the body, mind, and spirit. Food as pleasure, care, balance, and observing popular wisdom in Mediterranean cuisine.
I respect, over time through traditions, and seasonality, the great contribution of Mother Earth, with her gifts, fruits, nuts, and wild herbs inventing new dishes, exploring new and old ingredients that sustain life
