My Other Hats: Non-Profit Consultant and Freelance Writer
Hello, and thank you for visiting.
My name is Carolyn Nantais, and I am the writer and publisher of The Recipe for Travel. I am also a web content provider specializing in web development and writing services for non-profits, small businesses, ESL writers and web professionals. See my new site, The Website Writer, for details.
For the past 20-plus years, I have worked as staff and consultant in various executive, administrative and creative capacities in government, labour, non-profit and web publishing organizations.

Services for Seniors
I have developed, written and edited print and online community and consumer information about a diverse range of topics and products. Web publishing clients regularly revise and update their content, so I do not provide links here to sites that I wrote or edited. However, I am happy to provide samples of my original writing submissions on request.
Client confidentiality provisions also prohibit disclosure of financial specifics, and profitability is relative to a web publishing client's ability to invest in marketing and ad campaigns, but I can take some credit for writing several small sites, (at more than reasonable rates), that net well over six figures annually.
Services for Non-Profits
As a consultant and staff member, I have helped small and growing non-profit organizations with office and financial systems, information and contact database management, volunteer programme development and community outreach initiatives. I have exceptional research, analytical and writing skills that have served in many successful project funding proposals and community development initiatives.
With a background in legal, government and non-profit environments engaged in a diverse range of public policy areas and direct social service and advocacy, I am able to quickly assess operational and communications needs of organizations and make recommendations for meeting them strategically and in sustainable ways.

About the Recipe for Travel
Every so often, I take an opportunity to indulge in what I like to call 'temporary retirement' - simply a 'time-out' after completing a project or contract to pursue things that contribute to both my personal and my professional development: traveling, writing, mastering a new software program or technology, learning to teach English as a Second Language, reading, and exploring new cooking techniques and ingredients.
In the spring of 2005, I decided to invest in developing my own web site, the Recipe for Travel, so that I could share my passion for adventures in traveling, cooking and eating around the world.
The Recipe for Travel, a food companion for travel lovers and a travel companion for food lovers, was launched in May 2005, with articles, travel planning tips, food stories and recipes gathered during my round-the-world adventures in travel and food; the long-term vision is to provide other food and travel lovers with both practical information and inspirational anecdotes and articles about eating and traveling in every region of the world.
The site continues to evolve and improve, with plans for new content and shopping sources for food lovers and travelers, including a shop that will feature my travel photos on products like journals, home decor items, calendars, prints and posters.
