Martina Jamnig – The Sum of Small Things

14 September 2020
Martina Jamnig

In this episode #37, we speak with Martina Jamnig . Martina is lucky enough to work in tourism in London, where she represents her home country Austria. While her professional world naturally evolves around promoting her homeland, the rest of her life revolves around sports, more specifically around football (or soccer for the Americans), and everything that comes with it – the passion, the enthusiasm, the singing, and of course, the community involvement. Originally from the south of Austria’s countryside, Martina is now enjoying her life in the big city.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Why team sports teach useful life lessons.
  • What to do when some of an area’s best food & beverage products are not exported.
  • How a “transition dish” can make some traditional foods more approachable for visitors.
  • What you will discover if you follow the road less traveled.
  • How to make your dreams a reality.

In this episode number 72 of the Taste of Place podcast, we speak with Audrey Kelly. Audrey is the co-owner and head pizza maker at Audrey Jane’s Pizza Garage in Boulder, Colorado in the USA, which she runs with her brother, Peter. After studying pizza-making under Tony Gemignani, she opened her restaurant, and achieved quick success, with the restaurant having been been featured on the Food Network; the Travel Channel; and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Audrey won first place in the Pizza in Teglia competition in Naples, Italy, and has been featured in the New York Times and NPR. As a mother of twin boys, she balances family life with expanding her business, including plans for a second location. Audrey also grew up in a family of bakers, so she knows a thing or two about making dough!
