Foodmadics: travel and taste with Sara and Ale

Welcome to our blog, we are Sara & Ale: we are Italians and we love to travel and taste. We coined the term Foodmadics to describe those who travel & taste like us.

Sara is sweet, quirky, funny and writes all the content in this blog. She is a great travel planner but also disaster-prone and a little bit of a scaredy cat sometimes. Shh, don’t tell her this last part or she’ll put on her angry face..

Ale (like the beer, yes, but pronounced differently!) is cheeky, methodical and sometimes extremely annoying. But hey, he was the one deciding to build this website

Brasil: 10 reasons to visit and their local food

Big cities like Salvador offer a completely different perspective than the main touristic destinations but are unmissable to discover a more real part of the country. You can relax later in well-served beaches in Morro de São Paulo and try the taste of the healthy and rich Açai together with pasteis – thin crust deep fried pies – but before the pasteis, don’t forget to indulge in juggling with the ball on the beach together with the locals..

Why I did not like Bali, at first:

I landed in Bali alone, Sara was back in Italy to spend some time with her family and I did not want to go all the way back and then again head for East. Being by myself could already have been one reason not to like Bali, but it is not what I will be talking about in this post.

I decided for a hotel in an area that could allow me to explore both South and North of the island and I opted for the area of Kuta towards Seminyak.

After landing, I paid the Visa On Arrival fee as I wanted to extend my stay for more than 30 days and then made my way out of the airport

Is Mongolia worth a stop when travelling on the Trans-Siberian?

How many of you have at least once dreamt about travelling to a very remote country, one of those rarely visited?
Pretty sure most of you have, and how many of you had thought about Mongolia?

We included it as a quick stop on our way from Russia to China and in truth, most of the Mongolian tourists pass by via the Trans-Mongolian route. The question we have received many times after we mentioned Mongolia:

Is Mongolia worth a stop when travelling the Trans-Siberian?
