Cooking classes, markets, and food tours around the world

Cooking classes, food tours, and local markets make travel amazing because they invite you into the everyday life of a place instead of keeping you on the outside looking in. Food is culture, history, and connection all rolled into one experience. When you shop a neighborhood market, learn to cook a regional dish, or share a meal with locals, you’re not just tasting flavors—you’re hearing stories, learning traditions, and understanding how people actually live. These experiences slow travel down in the best way, create natural conversation and laughter, and often become the moments people talk about long after the trip is over. They turn travel from sightseeing into belonging, and strangers into companions around a shared table.

Tonight, we are going to highlight some of the best opportunities both locally and internationally. You will have a chance to share your memories and show pictures from your travels. Prior to our Meetup we are going to have our "bring a meal...take a meal" exchange. So, join both events if you are interested!
