A Travelling Planet Earth Foodie Experience

At Travelling Planet Earth, we believe food travel is one of the best ways to dive into a new culture. It’s not just about eating – it’s about experiencing the world through its flavours, textures, and spices. Whenever we’re in a new country, if there’s something on the menu we’ve never tried before, one of us is going to order it. Usually, that brave soul is Scott, and trust me, this plan has led to some unforgettable moments – both delicious and… interesting!
Exploring the world through food travel is like opening the door to a country’s heart
From bustling markets in Southeast Asia to tiny cafés in the European countryside, every dish tells a story. Food isn’t just sustenance; it’s history, tradition, and community wrapped up in a meal. Each bite reveals something new about the people who prepared it, and by the end of the meal, you’ve learned more than you ever could from any guidebook. It’s one of the joys of food travel.
What makes food travel so fascinating is the unpredictability. One day, you could be savouring delicate French pastries in Vietnam, and the next, you’re tackling spicy street food in Bangkok. Each experience is unique, and every meal offers a new perspective. Whether it’s an unfamiliar spice or a technique you’ve never seen before, food has a way of surprising you at every turn. Food Travel offers such an adventure!
Food travel isn’t just for the bold; it’s for everyone.
You don’t need to be a world-renowned foodie to appreciate the joys of tasting something new. It’s about being curious, open-minded, and ready for anything. You’d be amazed at what you can discover simply by sitting down at a local restaurant and trying something outside your comfort zone. Food travel is an experience anyone can have, no matter where they are on their travel journey.
We’ve had some fantastic discoveries along the way, but also a few that have left us scratching our heads. Scott, in particular, has been on the receiving end of some truly adventurous dishes. While some meals have been instant hits, others have been, let’s say, more of a learning experience. But that’s all part of the fun of food travel – and it makes for great stories when we return home!
In the gallery below, you’ll find a showcase of our food travel adventures so far. From beautifully presented gourmet meals to the quirky street food we’ve encountered, these photos highlight the diversity and joy of experiencing different cultures through their cuisine. Take a look and let us know which dish you’d be willing to try! We hope these photos inspire your own food travel adventures.

Hey there, fellow Travellers! 🌍
Welcome to Travelling Planet Earth, where we share our love for travel, photography, and the occasional misadventure. Now, before you pack your bags and hit the road, there’s something you should know: Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. Food Travel adds another layer of exploration to our journey.
“What does that mean?” you ask. Well, it’s simple! If you click on one of these links and decide to make a purchase (because, let’s be real, who can resist a new travel gadget or a dreamy hotel stay?), we might earn a small commission. It’s kind of like giving us a virtual high-five for showing you something awesome—at no extra cost to you!
Why do we do this? Because it helps us keep the lights on, the camera charged, and the adventures rolling. Plus, it funds our never-ending quest to find the perfect sunset and the ultimate cup of coffee (we’re still searching!).
Rest assured, we only recommend products and services that we genuinely love and think you will too. After all, your trust is more important to us than finding the best souvenir in a bustling market (and that’s saying something!).
So, thanks for supporting Travelling Planet Earth. You’re the wind beneath our wings, the map to our compass, and the reason we do what we do.
Happy travels and happy shopping!
Scott & Lynn
