Welcome to Vallery’s Galley
Where it begins
Hi, I’m Vallery, creator of Wave Food, passionate cook, and storyteller shaped by nature, culture, and the sea.
I grew up between a small farm and the Mediterranean coast, where I learned early that food is more than just nourishment. It’s about connection, simplicity, and care. After years of cooking on wellness sailing trips, I created Wave Food to share the recipes, stories, and mindful lifestyle that grew from that journey.
Here you’ll find my upcoming cookbook, filled with fresh, local, and Mediterranean inspired meals. You’ll also discover cooking tips, travel reflections, and ideas to bring more well-being into your everyday life.
Wave Food is your place to reconnect with nature, celebrate health, and enjoy food that truly fuels body and soul.
Welcome to the galley. Let’s cook, explore, and enjoy the simple beauty of food together.
A taste of the Blue Zone lifestyle — on board and by the sea.
Captured during our Sailing retreat in Sardinia, inspired by Sardinia’s longevity traditions. Prepared with local ingredients and rooted in the Blue Zone philosophy, these dishes reflect the simplicity, flavor, and balance that define the Wave Food approach.

The Story Behind Wavefood
A Journey in Every Recipe
Wavefood is more than just a cookbook—it's the story of discovery and nourishment. Each dish reflects a memory: a quiet sunrise while anchored in a hidden cove, the playful interplay of light on deck, or the comforting taste of a home-cooked meal after a day of exploration.
Born from my own journey towards healthier living, Wavefood blends local ingredients with long living nourishment to create meals that heal and inspire.
