Sweet! I was invited to be a Speaker at the 2023 FoodTreX Global Summit
Although I have only been writing for Boardingarea since December 2022, I’ve greatly enjoyed sharing my culinary travel-related suggestions, favorites, and foreign language menu help for whomever is interested.

Even though I’ve flown into Narita many times, in 2012 I had a delayed flight that landed just before the airport curfew — except for […]

Hong Kong Eliminates COVID-19 Isolation For Those Who Test Positive
Until late last year, Hong Kong was one of the last tourism centers that had layers of restrictions heaped upon potential visitors and residents alike.
