Bread! Sourdough Bread!!

[Nugget]

I read an article recently where one sourdough baker travels around the world, and when he goes somewhere he takes a small batch of his starter with him.  His intention isn't to bake with sourdough wherever he goes, but rather to expose his starter to different yeasts of different geographical areas.  He'll take his starter out and set it outside somewhere in a different country and let it be exposed to the local airborne yeasts in that region.

I noticed that whenever I relocated to a different area! 

In Alaska they would carry their starter in their bag of flour. It was alwso used to chink the gaps in their log cabin walls to keep the cold out.
