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

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

Brasil Rio de Janeiro: 10 reasons to visit and their local food

From the fantastic central beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema where you can sip the traditional caipirinha, to the nightlife in Botafogo with the taste of churrasco, Rio de Janeiro offers that vibe that you can only experience in South America. In constant development and still full of contrasts, it reminds how different life can be between people living in the same place. You will soon discover that Caipirinha tastes different here, it is always time for having one and that cassava chips could be even better than standard fried chips – if only you knew them when you were a kid!

England: 10 reasons to visit and their local food

From the countryside in Cotswolds that seems to come out of a Jane Austen book, to the traditional English breakfast in the morning, England has changed its past bland food history and in the recent years, many places that offer great food blossomed in the country. You can now experience simple but tasty gastropubs and great restaurants alongside with the traditional afternoon teas and fish and chips or pies. If you are visiting Dorset or Cornwall, we recommend tucking in the fresh fish produce (mussels are a number 1!) at places like Rick Stein’s restaurants. If you are planning a visit, do not forget to put down in your list Dorset, Seven Sisters, Cornwall and get a taste of Wales at Rhossili Bay.
