Holly, originally from Austin, Texas but now
living in Newfoundland is hoping that readers of the e-newsletter may
be able to help her research for her doctoral thesis. Her thesis
explores the ways in which individuals experience food as part of
travel in Atlantic Canada.

Holly has a short survey that anyone who has
visited any of Canada's Atlantic provinces (New Brunswick, Nova
Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador) can
complete. There's also a web page that people can
have a look at to find out more about her project, if they wish or,
you can email Holly with any questions. To contact Holly for
preliminary questions, and returning any completed surveys, is drpepper@warp.nfld.net

Interview topics may include: 1) food choices at
home and while travelling; 2) lifestyle considerations influencing
food preferences; 3) extent of travel experience; 4) and expectations
of travel. The data obtained from interviews and observation will
form the basis of the thesis, and may also be used in published
articles and/or book chapters, class lectures and public
presentations. Anonymity will be maintained for any participants who
wish it.
