Hey, I’m Jojo — the guy who will fly halfway across the world for the perfect bite, the plushest pillow, and the kind of hotel stay that makes you forget about the rest of the world.
Some people collect things.
I collect experiences — and they start the moment I check into a hotel and ask, “What’s the best dish around here no one knows about yet?”
From luxury suites in Santorini to street tacos in Oaxaca… from ziplining into a rainforest camp in Cambodia to sipping espresso on a tucked-away terrace in Rome… this journey has never been about just seeing places — it’s been about feeling them.
✈️ Where I’ve Been (So Far….)
- Italy — I’ve woken up in Venice with canal views, gotten lost in Rome’s alleyways, and eaten my weight in truffle pasta in Florence.
- Japan — I’ve stayed in minimalist sky-high sanctuaries in Tokyo and soaked in centuries-old onsen towns by moonlight.
- Mexico — My heart beats a little faster for Tulum’s jungle luxe, Mexico City’s energy, and the tacos… oh, the tacos.
- Russia — From the grandeur of Moscow’s Red Square to the historic charm of St. Petersburg, Russia surprised and inspired me at every turn.
- Cuba — Classic cars, rooftop mojitos, and salsa echoing through the streets of Havana — Cuba was pure magic.
- Guatemala — I found beauty in the colonial architecture of Antigua, serenity by Lake Atitlán, and depth in every cultural exchange.
- Malta — A Mediterranean gem with layers of history, crystal-clear water, and vibrant local life that stole my heart.
- Estonia — Tallinn’s medieval charm and cutting-edge cool vibes? Yes, please. Estonia is where fairy tale meets modern edge.
- Finland — I chased the Northern Lights, savored sauna culture, and found calm in the cleanest air on earth.
- Thailand — Floating markets, jungle retreats, rooftop infinity pools, and night food tours on the back of a moped? Yes, I’ve done it.
And that’s just some…..
🍽️ Why I Travel: For the Culture, the Cuisine, and the Connection
I believe in travel with soul. I seek out places where I can eat what the locals eat, learn the stories behind the food, and connect with the culture beyond the resort walls. The heart of travel lives in the hidden gems — the family-owned hotels, the neighborhood cafés, the conversations with strangers who become part of your story.
As Jojo The Flying Foodie, I’m all about finding that perfect balance between luxury and local — the rooftop suite and the hole-in-the-wall food stall.
