“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”

ABOUT ME

My first travel memory comes from my living room floor on a Saturday morning as I watched Great Chefs of the World” at the age of 8 years old. I remember men dressed in all-white handling thick metal saucepans with a level of care I had never seen before. I witnessed food become art as the chefs murmured instructions in thick accents through foreign words. I imagined the smells, I imagined the taste and the only thing real to me was the thought that one day, this would all be more than just a dream.

Food has been my gateway to travel, but understanding the people behind it all has amplified my passion for both.

Travel Cake Life is the place where I share my experiences of the past, present and future and discuss how these adventurous encounters are blowing my mind and transforming me all the time.

It’s the slap heard around the world and none of us saw it coming. Not even Will I’d bet.
