Kendall Hunter has just returned to her native Banff, Alberta, Canada after traveling and spending over a decade in Zurich, Switzerland. She’s the author of two books, "Black Taxi: Shooting South Africa" (a photographic memoir about a year she spent working as a news photographer in Johannesburg) and a guidebook called "Culture Smart!: Switzerland." Kendall's been writing just enough to avoid the “hausfrau” label while raising her two young daughters. Now she's back with a vengeance writing about the things that matter to her. She's been an occasional contributor to Canada’s national newspaper, “The Globe & Mail,” and to other North American periodicals, as well as to
Swiss publications.
