About Kendall Maycock

Kendall is the author of Culture Smart! Switzerland. Her first book, a photographic memoir called Black Taxi: Shooting South Africa, was written after Kendall spent a year working as a photojournalist in Johannesburg in 1993-94 while also completing her degree in Political Science from the University of Calgary. She is the founder and CEO of Culture Dock, a new video and photo-sharing app that facilitates cross-cultural awareness for tourists and the culturally curious. In 2009, after living ten years in Zurich, Kendall returned to Canada with her two daughters. She now lives in Toronto and is working on her third book while occasionally contributing features for The Women s Media Center.
