Lauren Ellis
A self-proclaimed water baby, Lauren grew up on the South-East Coast of England. Whilst studying Psychology, Lauren joined her sailing club at Plymouth University, which opened up opportunities to work as a water sports instructor during her summers in Sardinia and Spain.
Whilst sailing in Croatia in 2019, Lauren started exploring and enjoying the creative side of galley life, developing her culinary skills and spending 4 summer seasons hosting and cooking on yachts in the Adriatic and Greece. During the winters Lauren managed a luxury Bed and Breakfast in the French Alps, teaching herself to snowboard after work. Lauren has spent the past year working in the British Virgin Islands, experiencing the wonderful new flavors and cuisine it has to offer. She will be attending Ashburton culinary school this summer and can’t wait to bring her new skills back to the Caribbean.
Lauren’s travels have taken her through Europe, Australia, Mexico, and Africa, where she has worked in various hospitality roles and encountered many different cultures. She loves talking, laughing, and learning with people from all walks of life, and she brings them together through her food.
Lauren enjoys creating dishes using fresh, healthy ingredients, but also loves spoiling her guests with sweet treats. If not in the galley, you may find her snorkeling the incredible underwater life of the Caribbean, and she will happily show you all the best spots.
