Ultimate Food Posts

It will come as no surprise to long-time readers that one of my favorite parts of traveling is the food. Whether I’m sampling something for the first time in a distant country or trying a new restaurant in my hometown, I always like to share my dining experiences and “food porn” photos here on LL World Tour. Now, for your convenience, you can find many of my mouthwatering food posts in one place.

8. Foodie Musings

Clearly, I love eating food, but I also spend a fair amount of time just thinking about it. For example, I like to think about where our food comes from and share tips on how to eat more sustainably.

  • Where Does Our Food Come From?
  • Two Part Series: How to Live Simpler, Cheaper, and Happier! (check out the last section of this post)

I’ve also written about how travel turned me into a coffee drinker, what “American food” means, and some of the odd things I ate during the first year of my round the world trip.

  • Got Coffee?
  • What is American Food?
  • Trip Info, Lists, & Facts So Far

Of course, there’s also the story of how I got a job as a barista in Melbourne with no work visa:

  • Will Work For Food
