Sofia Levin is a journalist and TV host who celebrates cultural diversity through food. Driven by insatiable curiosity, you’re more likely to find her munching insects on the side of the road than following in the footsteps of Nigella. Her #EatCuriously movement encourages people to order outside their comfort zone in order to better understand others and themselves. Sofia has spent 15 years writing and reviewing for publications such as Lonely Planet, Good Food, National Geographic, The Guardian, delicious., SBS Food, Broadsheet, in-flight magazines and more. In 2020 she launched Seasoned Traveller, a website and newsletter dedicated to sharing lesser-known food stories from around the world. In 2023, she was announced as a judge on MasterChef Australia.
