The Five Things I Miss Most About Living in London

The Five Things I Miss Most About Living in London

It’s been six months since I’ve been back in the States. In some ways my time in London almost feels like a dream. Movie like. There were ups and downs, as is life, but the opportunity to live in my favorite city in the world, one so rich in history, was one of the greatest experiences of […]

Photo Essay: Ten Days in Italy

Italy is one of my favorite European countries. I had the chance to rekindle my love of the country back in April on a class gastronomy trip to the Amalfi Coast. It was magical – the food, the scenery, the culture – it was hard to board the plane to leave. When my family was […]

What Makes a Chef a Chef?

What Makes a Chef a Chef?

It all began one June evening, watching the sunset melt over London at the end of a long summer day. My friend and I were getting ready to enjoy a rooftop film screening. He’s a chef, and I was telling him about the work experience ideas I had for my culinary school course. My plans […]

Churros and Chocolate in Spain

September 1, 2015 by Beth Meyer

Churros and Chocolate in Spain

One of the pastries most ubiquitous with Spain are churros. Traditionally churros and chocolate are a popular Spanish breakfast item, or an early morning snack after a long night out. When I booked my trip, I was on a quest to seek out all of the churros and chocolate in Spain. I mean how could anyone possibly […]

Pastries of Paris

August 12, 2015 by Beth Meyer

Pastries of Paris

My dad and stepmom rented an apartment in Paris for the month of June, and since I’m just a short train ride away in London, visiting my family seemed like the perfect reason for a long weekend in the City of Light. That, and eating all the pastries of Paris. You know, for research. One […]

A Journey to the Northern Tip of South America

June 12, 2013 by Beth Meyer

A Journey to the Northern Tip of South America

I had read about Cabo de la Vela and Punta Gallinas and how they are among those few remaining places that are still a bit of an untouched paradise. I was instantly hooked. Plus, Punta Gallinas is the northern-most point of the South American continent and I love collecting those kinds of stats. I mean, […]

Mother City Love: 8 days in Cape Town

There aren’t many places that you can say, “We got robbed four times in eight days and I had a helluva week! And I can’t wait to go back!” But that’s exactly how I feel about Cape Town, South Africa. I love, love, LOVED it! We got extremely lucky with intros from friends Jeremie Brilliant […]

Thailand: In a Nutshell

Thailand: In a Nutshell

Just writing this post makes me miss Thailand. Thailand may now be my favorite country. Ever. I love the food, the people, the diving, the culture and they have, hands down, some of the prettiest beaches in the world! We spent around a month in Thailand and it wasn’t nearly enough time. I can’t wait […]

Camping on The Beach

Camping on The Beach

One of the most famous places to see in Koh Phi Phi is Maya Bay on Koh Phi Phi Leh, where Leo filmed his 2000 hit The Beach. A few friends I’ve met along the way suggested that the best way to see Maya Bay was to do the overnight camping trip, which allows you […]
