Writing on the Road

My name is Layne Mosler, and I'm an American-born writer and editor based in Berlin, Germany.

I cover food, travel, and human interest stories. You can read many of them at taxigourmet.com, and in my upcoming book, Driving Hungry (Vintage, 2014).
Warning: This book contains serious inspiration for food writers, including lines like: “Call me a cockeyed optimist if you like, but I’ve yet to find a country with nothing, absolutely nothing, that’s worth eating or drinking…In Togo, as in all former German colonies, there is superb beer…In cold-war Bulgaria, I was thrilled to discover that even the Communists couldn’t ruin what was then, as now, the world’s most sumptuous yogurt.” - R.W. Apple Jr.
