Travel should leave you satisfied and keep you hungry for more at the same time…
I love experiencing new places. I truly get excited with the research, the planning, and the journey but the real treat, obviously, is to get there and delve deep into the local scene.
To feel the vibe, get the lay of the land, and savor the flavors of a village, town, or city, I head to the streets. I usually find a local outdoor market or sidewalk cafe and people watch to see which restaurants the locals chose. The same goes for street food vendors. I watch and wait and learn because the locals will always tell you what’s safe and tasty or not, just by their facial expressions and attention.
Shopping is an art form and watching the locals make their choices of fruits, vegetable, and fresh meat, poultry and/or seafood and then barter for price is something not to be missed (even if I don’t speak the language).
I’m currently planning an itinerary for a young couple who are self-professed foodies and want to celebrate their anniversary in Bali, Bangkok, and Chiang Mai with a long layover in Singapore… so I’m just sitting here reminiscing about the 6 months that I traveled all over Southeast Asia from November 1, 2018 to April 29, 2019 and the mouthwatering meals that I had along the way.
Some of us travel the world to experience a culture through all 5 senses: taste, smell, vision, hearing, and touch. Are you a foodie? Tell me in the comments, how far you’ve traveled for a great meal.
