About
Always in search of the next sip of something incredible and the next conversation with someone new. My travel tends to be spontaneous and my tastes impossible to define.
Travel style
For me, travel is about connecting and understanding the community I am in. I often avoid hotel and restaurant chains and instead search out ways to immerse myself locally. You can easily find me at a Michelin-starred restaurant one night, and a street food cart the following night.
