Flavors on the Road
The Road That Tastes Different Travel has a way of changing us, but food has a way of rooting us. Every new city, village, or roadside stop I’ve ever stumbled into had its own flavor—sometimes literal, sometimes figurative.

It’s about kids chasing fireflies with sticky marshmallow hands, parents sipping campfire coffee while swapping stories, and a whole crew snuggling under the same stars.

The tent shivers in the night wind. Beyond its thin walls, you hear the ripple of a river, the distant cry of an owl, and the sigh of pines bending under the stars.
