At the age of 18 Tessa set off to travel, to learn all she could about the world’s cultures and traditions and discover new ways of living and eating. She has cooked at London’s The Groucho Club and in Sydney, Athens, and Mexico. On a trip to Italy, to study the Italian language and food, she met her husband Giovanni; they now live in Tuscany with their two children.
