Stories about slow travel, military life, wellness, and delicious food adventures. I am a storyteller, amateur photographer, and curious explorer.

Readers are not just told stories; they're invited to taste the food, walk the streets, meet the people, and feel the soul of each place visited. I live in Daegu, but I'm traveling all over Asia. Every week you will find posts about my addictions--travel, good food, wine, and wellness. i hope to be entertaining, informative, and inspire you to fill up your duffelbag too.
