Intro

Just a girl in her early 20's here who is seriously passionately, inexplicably in love with food.

Little about me:
I am the offspring of Czech and Romanian immigrants, born and raised in San Diego, California.
I graduated from college with a BA in Psychology with a minor in Sociology. While obtaining my degree, I was blessed to be able to study abroad in Italy and Spain (Syracuse in Sicily, Barcelona, and Florence). I always knew I had a passion for food, but once I started traveling more, experiencing food from different cultures while being in their land just set me off.
I have debated starting a blog over food for a while now but kept resisting since I am not necessarily an expert cook or food critique, just an average being with an excessive obsession for food. After taking over my phone's storage with photos of food and always raving on about a new place to try to my friends and family, I have decided to write about my experiences, in hopes that other people will go out and try to do the same.

Here you will not find:
Recipes for food. I love to cook, but I am not a chef whatsoever. I have a passion for enjoying foods from all over, I want to experience and many different types of foods and cultures during my life. I will try anything put in front of me at least once and have yet to find something I hate.

Here will find:
Recommendations for restaurants during my travels and from my hometown. I want to write about my experiences at restaurants, including the food, prices, the atmosphere, and just overall experience. I love outgoing, welcoming, out-of-the-ordinary restaurants.

My goal with this blog is to share the amazing food I try with others, but for people to learn about how important it is to step out of their comfort zone and try new things. Go to your favorite restaurant and order something you have never tried before OR even better, go try a brand new restaurant, and maybe it will just end up being your new favorite. Food has the amazing ability to bring people together and I just am enamored with every aspect of this. I hope over time I will accumulate posts that can serve as a guide of places people should try from countries and towns that I have been lucky enough to explore.

If you have even made it to the end of my intro, I will be basic and end with one of my favorite quotes about food:
I believe that food is one way to make people happy. I also believe that food can unite people from all walks of life and cultures. When we sit together and eat, we promote better understanding and harmony. Food brings love, peace, and compassion to the table
