One of the best ways to fully experience a culture while you travel is food! This guide is for the ultimate foodie and for the Builder who likes to stick to the basics. Explore pictures of typical foods you might eat in each location to help pick what is right for you!
Keep in mind the food changes from year to year, and you might not get the exact meal pictured. If you are a pickier eater, or have food allergies, we highly recommend brining some supplementary snacks so you know you have some “comfort” foods as you adjust to the new culture!
◊If you have food allergies each location can accommodate, but some cultures/food vendors are better at understanding allergies than others. In each region we will list the best ones to consider if you have an allergy!
