The Traveler's Lunchbox is written and photographed by Melissa Kronenthal. I cook, shoot and write from my home on Bainbridge Island, Washington (a hop, skip and a jump from Seattle) with my German husband Manuel. For the first three and a half years of this site's life, we were living in Edinburgh, Scotland, where I was completing my doctorate in Linguistics, so you'll see a strong European bent in posts from that period (along with a lot of complaining about the British weather!). In mid-2008 we returned to the US, where we are now trying to make a living from our creative endeavors.
