I’ve always been a true foodie at heart.
For me, food is so much more than something we need to survive. Yes, it is essential, but it is also one of the greatest ways to enjoy life.
Food brings people together, creates conversations, connects cultures, and turns simple moments into unforgettable memories.
I believe eating should be an experience. It’s not just about what’s on your plate, but about the atmosphere, the people you share it with, the story behind the ingredients, and the emotions a meal can create. A great restaurant can turn an ordinary day into a special memory.
Of course, sometimes a place or dish can disappoint, but that’s exactly why The Bite List exists: to help you discover the spots that are truly worth your time and make sure you can always make the right choice.
Because good food deserves time. Taking a moment to slow down, enjoy a meal, and spend quality time with the people you love is something we should make space for.
Eating together is one of the simplest but most meaningful ways to connect.
Besides my passion for food, I’m also a very active and adventurous person. I love all kinds of sports and I’m happiest when I’m outside, especially close to nature. I could spend entire days in the sea, whether I’m kitesurfing, windsurfing, sailing, or simply enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by water. But I also love the mountains: hiking, exploring new landscapes, and discovering the beauty of nature from a completely different perspective.
My holidays are therefore never about sitting still. They are filled with adventure, movement, discovering new places — and, of course, making sure I recharge with amazing food after all those activities. Because after a day full of sports and exploring, there is nothing better than sitting down for a delicious meal and sharing stories around the table.
Travelling is another big passion of mine. Exploring a new destination is about much more than visiting beautiful buildings or famous landmarks. It’s about discovering the culture, the people, the traditions, and the stories behind a place. One of the best ways to truly understand a country is through its food. The ingredients they use, the way they prepare their dishes, the traditions they preserve, and even the way they grow or source their products reveal so much about their history and their way of life.
With The Bite List, I want to inspire people to explore, taste, and enjoy food experiences that are truly memorable, whether close to home or somewhere around the world.
