Leaving America: The Frustrating, Delicious, Soulful Truth

Hey, I'm Mel!

In 2021, I broke free from the 9-to-5 grind, sold my house, and set off on a journey to discover a new country to call home and a life overflowing with joy. I’m still on this quest, but I feel like I'm getting closer to my dream. Along the way, I’ve explored diverse cultures, savored delectable foods, and captured thousands of mouth-watering & breathtaking moments. I’ve learned that major life changes are messy and magical, and certainly not for the faint of heart.

If you're yearning to escape the daily routine, seeking a place with better weather (or better politics), or looking to experience the world through a creative and soulful lens, you're exactly where you need to be. Welcome to Taste Travel Transform!
