In the cultural capital of Mexico, there is no shortage of Oaxaca vegan food to try. As I planned our time in Oaxaca, I knew we'd be frequenting the best vegan restaurants in Oaxaca, according to HappyCow and Google. Mexican cuisine is designated as an Intangible...
Known for its robust art, culture, and cuisine, Oaxaca is a charming city that belongs on any Mexico itinerary. It was my absolute favorite place from this entire two-week trip to Mexico. As I write this Oaxaca travel guide two months later, I remember still the...
Last week, I moved From the Aisle Seat from ConvertKit to Substack. If you're new around here, you may not be familiar with From the Aisle Seat. It's the weekly newsletter I write as part of this blog. It has taken years of experimentation to figure out my purposes in...
There are hundreds of Tulum vegan restaurants. If you're only in town for a few days, the prospect of narrowing down where to eat can be daunting. After all, foodies want the best, most authentic food at every meal, especially when we're somewhere new to us. In good...

When making a list of books to read this summer, I had the always-beneficial problem of wanting to read far too many. After all, summers are also full of family time, cooking, and, of course, seeing the world. If you've been around for even a few posts, you've...
If you're anything like me, summers off from school in childhood were all about reading. In the humid Southern summers, I traveled all over the world through books. It comes as no surprise that, as an adult, I both travel and read like my life depends on it. These 12...
