After a career in architecture and design, Nick is enjoying an early retirement, primarily because it affords him time to make a wide variety of fabulous cheeses. Nick’s Story My wife and I live in a little village called Tingewick, which is near Buckingham, Buckinghamshire – about 65 miles northeast of London and 20 miles east of Oxford. We moved to our very old house
Marwan Abujaber in Amman, Jordan
When Marwan sent us pictures of his cheeses, we couldn’t believe how beautiful they are. We naturally assumed that he sells them, but we were wrong. He is a home cheesemaker, working at developing his own recipes. Marwan’s Story I first got interested in cheese making when I realized I really enjoyed tasting the different types of cheese from all over the world. I come
Vincent D’Souza in Fulshear, Texas
My wife and I are located in Fulshear, TX, which is a suburb, west of greater Houston.

Hilary Elmer in Lowell, Vermont
Almost all of us dream at some point of living in the country and growing our own food. Few of us achieve that goal but Hilary Elmer made her dream come true.

Deborah Eddleman in Edwardsville, Illinois
We live approximately 10 miles outside of Edwardsville Illinois. We have about 12 1/2 acres for our goats and chickens. It took about two years of negotiations with my husband in order to get goats. Before my husband and I were married, he used to raise baby doll sheep. I’m guessing he didn’t enjoy it all that much because he said they were boring and

Marek is a cheese maker from Poland. He told us about his Youtube channel – www.youtube.com/domowyser. (Domowy ser means homemade cheese.) He was hoping we would let you know about it if we thought it was good. It turned out we think it is more than good – it’s amazing!
