And just like that the holidays are upon us once again and we’re wrapping up another year.
This November marks the one-year anniversary of the Woolsey Fire, which is still impacting so many us every day. While our community is stronger than ever, many of our residents are still struggling to rebuild homes and coping with re-awakened trauma as we experience this year’s fire season. This issue, Malibu Magazine takes a look at the deep-seated psychological toll that our community has endured as we speak with local psychologists about how Malibu residents are dealing with PTSD from the Woolsey fire. October saw some of the strongest Santa Ana winds in recent history, inciting the first-ever extreme red flag warning and causing fires to break out across Southern California, with thousands of residents losing power due to SCE’s Public Safety Power Shutoffs. MALIBU MAGAZINE investigates why the city doesn’t underground powerlines in the face of such problems. We also speak with Jason Farhang, a local weather specialist about how Santa Ana winds are created.
Next we take a look at a problem that has had Malibuites up in arms for months now: the increasing amount of RVs, trailers and even tents camping overnight along PCH. MALIBU MAGAZINE examines the new signage being posted along PCH in light of the issue as well as some ideas on how to solve it.
Irene Dazzan Palmer, know as Malibu’s ‘Queen of Coastal Real Estate’, graces our cover this issue. One of the most well-known agents in the country, we sit down with Dazzan Palmer to hear more about her upbringing in the San Jouquin Valley, her career and precious family life and her abiding love for her Malibu community.
After a year of delays, Nicolas Eatery finally opens along PCH and we couldn’t be more excited. We got the chance to sit down with Nicolas himself in his beautiful new restaurant and meet the family that inspires many of the eatery’s favorite dishes. MALIBU MAGAZINE also sits down with Malibu Seaside Chef, Gina Clarke-Helm, to discuss her career as one of Southern California’s top caterers and how she juggles her professional life with new motherhood. Clarke-Helm also breaks down how to make the ultimate prime rib, a great recipe for the holiday season.
Next we travel halfway around the world to bring you the best of Bali, Indonesia for our special travel section. If you haven’t been, we couldn’t recommend the island more. Between age-old temples, towering rice fields and pristine beaches there is something for everyone. We also head to the travel favorite Hawaii to showcase the beautiful Montage Kapulua Bay, which offers the ultimate in relaxation.
Saving the best for last, we are incredibly excited to announce our first-ever coffee table book, MALIBU 2020 which will be available this January. It will feature our best articles and photos of Malibu across 400+ pages. The book will be available in stores around Malibu as well as for sale on Amazon.
Wherever you end up heading to this holiday season, we hope you enjoy this magical time of year.
