ASIA
Food, History, & Scenic Views
Travel To Asia
Asia is home to 48 countries and 2,100+ languages spoken. What do I love about Asia travel? Indulging in their spicy, sweet, and savory food; access to exploring the world’s ancient cities; breathtaking scenery; and culturally immersive experiences.
I first visited Asia in 2015 and have traveled to 6 countries since (and counting). Here are blog posts with photos, stories, guides, and reviews of travel in Asia. As I continue to explore the continent I’ll add more posts and guides.
Information To Know Before You Travel To Asia:
- Some cities in Asia are less developed, while others are light years ahead of the US (with great Wifi and urban development).
- Countries with a lot of western tourism often speak English, or offer English signage in popular sites.
- Many countries require proof of onward travel to enter: bring a printed copy of your return itinerary.
- Street food is the best food — don’t miss out.
