I am Marina, the person behind Marina Loves Food.
I grew up in a small town near Munich - in Freising, to be specific.
After graduating from Ludwig Maximilians-University with a Master degree in Italian Linguistics, I decided to do a Master degree of Business in the USA and moved to Providence, RI. That's where my passion for taking pictures of food started.
This passion kept growing, when I moved to NYC for work and when I went on business travels to various cities in the USA. Living in NYC for 4 years made me a NYC girl.
When I lived in the USA, I always took pictures of what I ordered when I was eating out. If I shared them, I posted them on my personal Facebook. At some point I got the idea to use Instagram to share my food pics. As I have reached quite a few followers on Instagram now, it is time to have my own website.
I am back in Germany and I am still taking pictures of what I eat. After moving back to Germany, living in Frankfurt and 2 years of working from home, I have decided to move back to my home town Freising. Working from home allows me to travel more, as I can work from anywhere. I want to use this opportunity to take my work to different places around Europe
.
I want to share all the good food and food places that I find and that I really like. You won't find any restaurants on this side that I didn't like.
My collection on this website is currently reduced to a few food spots in Frankfurt, Munich, and Freising. For more food recommendations please check out my Instagram marina_loves_food.
I hope you will enjoy my food journey and find some inspirations on where to go when you are hungry.
Thank you,
Marina
Yes, I love food. I have always enjoyed eating and especially eating out. I love to explore different restaurants everywhere I go. I love to try different kinds of cuisines - from Asian, European, African to American food.
I eat almost everything. I have tried snails and frog legs in Paris! I love salads, but I also enjoy eating a good steak.
This is just my hobby.
I do not make money with this nor do I intend to make money with my food guide.
I do not ask for free food when I eat out. I just want to take pictures or videos of the dishes I ordered and share them on Instagram.
I also love to get inspired and hungry by scrolling through what other foodies post.
I don't want you to be disappointed when you check out food places I recommended on here or on Instagram.
I don't do promotions or collaborations with restaurants, as I only want to share what I really liked.
I have a good food only policy.
I do not apply filters to my food pictures. I just change the brightness and/or saturation. I want the food to look as real as possible.
Interior pictures are sometimes provided by the restaurants. It is difficult to take good pictures of the interior when it is busy. I am sure not many people like to be in someone else's pictures.

I will do my best to get back to you soon!
