Jules Torti is the author of Free to a Good Home: With Room for Improvement, Trail Mix: 920km on the Camino de Santiago and Been There, Ate That: A Candy-Coated Childhood. She is the former editor-in-chief of Harrowsmith magazine and has been published in Cottage Life, Coast Mountain Culture, Our Homes, NOW, FASHION, The Globe and Mail and Vancouver Sun. Torti is currently the chief content creator at Wild Women Expeditions and is mostly at-large in destinations like Tanzania, Indonesia and anywhere due south. She lives with her wife on the 45th parallel in Lion's Head, Ontario — halfway to the North Pole and (better yet) halfway to the equator. Her affection for bizarre beers and questionable foods is no secret. Ask her to go on a long walk and she?ll suggest crossing the Pyrenees and hiking across Spain. A lifelong blogger, jogger and egg nogger, Jules Torti insists on writing about the best things in life: burgers, beer, books, birds and beaches — in no particular order. When she grows up she hopes to be an official paint chip colour namer, wine label or beer coaster writer and/or fortune cookie message creator.
