Wellness on The Go

Travel isn’t just about seeing new places — it’s about feeling connected wherever you go. Whether I’m exploring a quiet coastal town or hiking through mountain trails, I look for moments that ground me: nourishing food, slow mornings, and places that spark peace and presence. This page is where I share my favorite destinations, mindful travel tips, and little rituals that help me stay rooted while roaming. Let’s explore with intention.

Europe 

One of the most memorable meals I had in Europe was a pesto pizza from a small coastal town café in the south of France. It wasn’t your usual pizza — the crust was light and wood-fired, with just the right crisp, and instead of tomato sauce, it was smothered in fresh, homemade basil pesto. The flavors were earthy, rich, and comforting all at once. Topped with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of pine nuts, it felt like the kind of food that grounds you — simple, fresh, and made with love.

In Barcelona, I discovered a cozy little spot tucked away from the busy streets where I ordered a warm plate of rice pilaf that completely surprised me. The rice was fragrant and lightly spiced, cooked perfectly with tender vegetables, toasted almonds, and herbs that gave it a layered, comforting flavor. It was served with grilled lemon and a dollop of creamy yogurt on the side — something I never thought to pair with rice, but now can’t forget.

Traveling through Europe reminded me how much food can be an experience in itself — not just nourishment, but a way to connect with culture, people, and the moment you’re in. These meals weren’t just delicious; they were grounding, present, and joyful in that simple way that reminds you to slow down and truly savor.

Dominican Republic

In Punta Cana, I had some of the most unexpected and delicious Mexican-inspired food while visiting a local spot that brought so much flavor and heart to every dish. I ordered a colorful plate of rice with sautéed veggies, which was simple but perfectly seasoned and comforting. Alongside it came a crispy taco flat, loaded with beans, spiced meat, and fresh toppings that balanced heat with freshness. The quesadilla was golden and melty, filled with seasoned meat and cheese, and served with a side of warm beans that tied everything together. It was the kind of meal that felt homemade — bold, nourishing, and full of soul — right in the middle of paradise.

Vancouver BC.

While traveling through British Columbia, I made it a point to stick to simple, grounding meals that kept me feeling balanced on the go. One morning, I chose a classic but nourishing option: two eggs, whole grain toast, and crispy bacon — a comforting and familiar plate that gave me energy without feeling heavy. It was a reminder that even while exploring new places, you can still make mindful choices that support your body. Sometimes the healthiest option is the one that keeps things simple, satisfying, and steady for the rest of your day.
