About us
Hey! we're Christina and Tyro. High school sweethearts (awww) we have been together a long time (as our friends keep reminding us!) but instead of settling down, and despite Tyro’s initial reluctance, we have spent our mid 20′s travelling around South America and Europe. Choosing to put travel (slightly) higher on the list than nights out at the pub (no mean feat in England) we have managed to visit 35 countries in the last three years.
We are fans of doing it our own way and although we have succumbed to the odd tour here and there our best memories have come from the times we have got off the beaten track and mingled with the locals. It is from these adventures that Ty's dream of owning a menagerie of animals when we get home has come (not to mention Christina's apprehension about his plan for her to be milking the goats to make his cheese!)
Christina's mum is a chef and Ty's mum an avid fan of home cooking so its somewhat inevitable that we both grew up with a passion for food. We love to eat, and think there's nothing better than finding a new delicacy, made with fresh ingredients, that we can take home to spice up our recipe book.
We've set up our Blog to share the highs and lows of our next big adventure and The Best Bites to make your mouth water with the tantalising and tasty dishes we find along the way.
