Karen M. Ricks is a Christian wife, Worldschooling mom, and a nomadic chef. Teaching for 25 years, she has been a Montessorian since her own preschool days. She holds Montessori teaching certifications for guiding children from infancy through elementary. She has cooked professionally, in restaurants, commercial kitchens, and private homes on four different continents over the last decade. After 10 years of teaching in central Japan, where Karen founded and operated her own international Montessori school, she sold it all to begin a nomadic life of full-time travel with her family. Karen spreads her message of embracing a Slow Food Lifestyle, a lifelong love of learning, and education for peace by teaching people of all ages how to cook for themselves and why they need to share that gift with those they love. You can learn more about her, her family’s edible exploits, and the lessons they are learning on their Culinary Worldschooling Adventures as they gallivant around the globe over at ourkitchenclassroom.com.Mentioned in the episode:Subscribe to Our Kitchen Classroom on YoutubeMy Nomadic Worldschooling Life - Blaxit Global YouTube channelConnect with Karen:Facebook: https://facebook.com/ourkitchenclassroomInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/karenm.ricks/ (#OurKitchenClassroom);#PLAYwithYourFood Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/WePLAYwithOurFood/Subscribe to Our Kitchen Playground: http://ourkitchenclassroom.com/subscribe-to-our-kitchen-playground/Smells Like HumansLike spending time with funny friends talking about curious human behavior.
