ChefLauren last signed in Feb 09 2010 and has been on Bukisa since Dec 13, 2008.
When I was 18, I planned to open up a restaurant before the age of 30. I am now 31 and I have owned 2 and have now moved on to a new and exciting adventure. I believe that life is to short to live the same day twice so I am combining all of my interests and passions into one career that will take me on a tour of different worlds and cultures. I am an extremely passionate person and everything and everyone I come in contact with will experience this.

Renaissance Art and Artists
by ChefLauren | in Art & Entertainment > Art
Renaissance art has been characterized as an individualistic approach to humanism. The interpretations have been realistically based and emphasis on naturalism was used to persuade onlookers that an object was real-both living and breathing in the eyes of the artist. The standards reflected a focus of the human form and the social, political, and religious aspects of the time.

The Chapel of Bones
by ChefLauren | in Travel > Europe
You may be familiar with the Catacombs in Paris, which is a series of tunnels that are lined with over six million bodies from around the 12th century from the overcrowding of cemeteries during the rise of Christianity. However, the Capela Dos Ossos in Evora, Portugal was constructed around the 16th century, and the likeness and symbolism is uncanny.
I haven't added any favorites yet.

ChefLauren, Thank you for visiting my site. Thank you too, for this wonderful article. I see you have others about your travels through Europe. I am currently writing a book about the world's first detective, a historical biography, and Vidocq lived in 18th century France. The details of real life are the most fascinating of all, I think we are kindred souls.
