About

I enjoy eating, traveling and eating while traveling. Based in the Pacific Northwest. I call Seattle home along with my wheaten terrier, Maddie.

Home airports

SEA is my home base, but I feel I've arrived home every time I arrive at any airport.

My travel style

Relaxed type-B traveler here. I prefer to have only flights/train and hotel bookings, and a few restaurant reservations confirmed. The rest of my style includes sleeping in, impromptu adventures and checking out the local (non-touristy) food scene.

Favorite hotels

Recently returned from:

  • Eating my way through hawker centers in my free time on a business trip to Singapore. 

  • Staying at luxurious beachfront hotels, having nothing to do but eat, sleep and relax over New Years in Zihuatanejo. 

  • Relaxing on an eight night Virgin Voyages cruise through Eastern Antilles – I never thought I would enjoy cruises, until I met Virgin who does *not* have buffets or children onboard. 

  • Wandering through London– spending too much money on chef's tasting menus but not regretting a thing.

Dreaming of:

  • Antarctica, for the wild adventure it would be!

  • South Africa, for nature, culture and wildlife.

  • Japan, for all of the sushi, okonomiyaki, ramen and curry.

  • Czech Republic, because one of the best meals of my life was in Prague.

One thing I can't travel without...

A list of restaurants or foods to try.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I took a two day cooking class in Bologna, Italy 

  2. I spent one summer creating and re-creating French macarons until I tweaked the recipe just right in order to get the correct outcome. 

  3. I like my vacations choreographed minute-by-minute, leaving little room for relaxation.
