I can't stay still for long. Traveling gets me itchy, excited, and expands my confort zone.
Food turned out to be the best lingua franca I've ever spoken.
It brings different people and places together and helps demystify that fear to the unknown and otherness syndrome.
So when I travel, I eat. A lot.
From street vendors, to home-cooked meals to Michelin Restaurants, I try them all.
Food connects us. It bridges us between each other, to our past and to places.
The most joyful childhood memories are around the dinner table. I cooked pascualina with my mom, pizza with la Nona and pasta with my dad. And what's better than cooking and eating while traveling? Writing about it!

I devoured Bourdain's content, took a 3-year course on professional gastronomy in Crandon Gastronómico, studied an anthropology of food course with Prof. Heather Paxon (MIT) and a food writing one with Devra Ferst (Taste, BonAppetit, Vogue, NPR, CondeNast Traveler).
I circumnavigated the word, lived in 7 cities, and visited more than 50 countries.
I find joy in each bun, coffee, slice, empanada and cookie I discover.
I try to creatively write my life on a day-to-day basis, with a touch of salt and pepper given by the awesome people I meet along the way and the great places I end up at.
So please, grab your favorite mug, have a snack, and relax.
