Show up to one, and it’s like opening a door into the collective memory of a place. You see how people celebrate, mourn, give thanks, or mark time—not through textbooks, but through food, music,

But between timezone jumps, constant planning, and sensory overload, it can also feel like a slow-burning panic attack. Even the most ‘relaxing’ trips are packed with hidden stressors: delayed flights, unfamiliar food, or just not
Why Healthy Eating on the Road Matters Travel is chaos, even on the best day. Time zones, early flights, endless walking, packed schedules—it’s enough to throw anyone off. Food is usually the first thing to slip. Meals get skipped, protein disappears, and suddenly it’s coffee and carbs on repeat. The effects aren’t subtle. Poor nutrition
