Elizabeth White resides on the Central Coast of California,
where for several years she authored the San Luis Obispo County lifestyle blog,
Elizabeth in SLO. Readers from around
the globe shared her discovery of SLO County's avant-garde, as she explored the
beauty and wonder of this regional Shangri-la.
Elizabeth's taste for adventure dates back to the 90s, when she
taught English in rural Japan. She reveled in discovering the local cuisine and
customs while surrounded by lush fields of rice, stunning tulip farms, and
towering alps. She later served as the media coordinator for the Japan Exchange
and Teaching Program's Alumni Association of Southern California, where she
sourced writers, edited articles, and published several of her Japanese
escapades in Sushi and Sake Magazine.
Her love of documentaries led her to volunteer for the San Luis
Obispo International Film Festival, where for several years she wrangled wine
for Festival events and also served as a board member. This experience kindled
her interest in the budding Central Coast wine scene.
Elizabeth's blog stories chronicled her vino-infused exploits
throughout the rolling SLO County vineyards and culinary hot spots, as well as
her experimentation with recipes influenced by local flavors and products. Her
interviews with local chefs and wine makers have been published in VINO Wine Lifestyle Magazine and Templeton
Life.
Currently she continues to wander, photograph, and write about
the beauty and wonder of the Central Coast, largely as a guest blogger. When
out exploring the local terrain, Elizabeth, camera in tow, captures the
regional wildlife and majestic coastal scenery. She is a published photographer and uses her
photos to bring her stories to life. You can catch glimpses of her work at elizabethinslo.blogspot.com and elizabethwhitephotos.com.
