Galena Foodie Adventures was started out of a passion for travel and cooking. Growing up in the kitchen, I learned that food is an experience. It's what brings families, friends and cultures together and we need to enjoy the flavors our kitchens can produce. Food is a journey and allows us to experience something new, unique or different. Food can and does make us feel emotion and to be happier. On the other side of things, I also grew up travelling the country, being to 32 states by 18, I was lucky enough to create a passion for travel. Life is too short to do nothing! There is so much out there and we are missing it every day! As I got older and started travelling more by myself I stumbled across food tours and fell in love with the concept and since done multiple across the country. Food tours really do allow a person to discover foods they wouldn't try on their own, go to a place they didn't know was there or fall for a place that they end up going to 10 times on a vacation. Combining my love for cooking and my passion for travel I decided to create my own food tour company allowing guests that visit Galena to taste their way through history. This is how I came up with the name, travelling is an adventure and I'm a hardcore foodie showing other foodies how it's done while in Galena!
