About Me

Hi everyone! My name is Kristina. I am a recent college graduate with a passion for finding the best local spots (either food related or just great places to visit) everywhere I go. I am passionate about travel, and strive to fully immerse myself into my surroundings-wherever that may be!

After spending a semester abroad in Europe, I sort of took on roles as the trip planner, local food seeker, as well as the coffee and wine LOVER. I loved having these roles within my group of friends, and am excited to share that love with this blog!

Here you can find travel tips, guides, recipes with local ingredients, cocktails inspired by scenic views… and more!

What I do

Travel

I have a constant travel bug. I jump on any opportunity to explore- whether that being close to home or far away. I get excited when I stumble upon a beautiful view, a boutique coffee shop, or local landmarks!

Food

Food has intrigued me for as long as I can remember. My father is a Sicilian immigrant, so I have been taught the value and importance of fresh and homemade meals. I love trying to find locally made food in every place I visit!

Drink

A more recent passion of mine comes from the wine and spirits industry. I love to try and guess the notes and flavors on the first sip (lol). I also enjoy learning about how classic cocktails are made, and how the ingredients are often reminiscent of the local surroundings.
