About Me

I’ve dedicated my life to food and travel. For over a decade, I worked in restaurants, gaining firsthand experience in kitchens and front-of-house operations, and learning about the transformative power of meals in bringing people together. Then, I spent two decades running an online food business with my parents, connecting home cooks with gourmet ingredients from around the globe. These years enriched my culinary knowledge and taught me how food serves as a powerful narrative of a place.

Today, I bring this perspective to my work as a travel advisor, food enthusiast, and writer. I design journeys that transcend the conventional guidebook, focusing on cultural immersion, meaningful connections, and culinary experiences. Whether it’s uncovering hidden gems in local markets, savoring a Michelin-starred dining experience, or participating in hands-on cooking classes, I firmly believe that food is the most captivating gateway to discovery.

When I’m not embarking on new adventures, you’ll find me in my kitchen, experimenting with dishes I’ve tasted abroad, or at my desk, crafting articles about the intersection of culture and cuisine for my website and Substack. Through both platforms, I share inspiration with food enthusiasts seeking travel experiences that linger long after the suitcase is unpacked.

If you resonate with these aspirations, you’ve come to the right place.

If you dream of your next adventure, accompanied by delectable meals, and thrive on exploring destinations through their kitchens, markets, and tables, then you’ve found the perfect travel advisor. Whether you seek a seamless planning process, with insider perks and every delectable detail meticulously crafted, or a travel companion who shares your passion for culinary exploration, I’m here to guide you on a journey that will leave you with unforgettable memories.

Let’s embark on this extraordinary adventure together, savoring each bite, sharing each story, and creating unforgettable trips, one culinary delight at a time.
