I’m Fernando Monte da Silva — a food and travel writer, podcaster, and award-winning
blogger and photographer, with a passion for storytelling that brings cultures to life.
Over the years, my work has appeared in esteemed publications such as BBC Good Food,
Lonely Planet, and The Quint, alongside my editorial contributions to various leading dailies.
From bustling spice markets to quiet mountain kitchens, I seek out the flavors, histories,
and people that define a place. Whether it’s through my lens, my pen, or behind the mic,
I strive to capture the soul of every destination I explore — one bite, one story, and one
conversation at a time.
