If you're looking for inspiration to eat better, without getting bored eating the same thing all the time, then you need to follow Marta – and maybe attend one of her workshops! Always plant-based, she even manages to create recipes from world cuisines, with a wonderful presentation, as Marta is also a food stylist.
You'll see that the beach and the sun often come up throughout the interview, as a place to recharge and enjoy free time, so facial sunscreen and a foot care kit could only be among Marta's essentials – it's always by protecting the skin that we achieve a healthy and beautiful tan, like hers!
Get to know her better in this week's Inside Out.
