Passionate Baker Travels is a weekly newsletter by me, Victoria. Dental receptionist by day, travel blogger by night, married to the love of my life, pregnant with my first child, and wildly obsessed with travelling the world & experiencing as much of it as possible through food. It’s so nice to meet you!

I like to think of this space as my treasured personal journal. It’s where I come to record memories of perfect travels, exceptionally good recipes, light hearted seasonal bucket lists, monthly life updates, and, essentially, anything that brings me joy. I hope it brings you some joy, too.

I first started Passionate Baker Travels back in 2012 - although, at that time, it was just Passionate Baker; I hadn’t yet started sharing my travels - and I primarily used the blog as an outlet for the stresses of college life. Creating the perfect brownie recipe was a lot more appealing than spending countless hours in the library studying - and yet, miraculously, I still graduated with an Art History & Archaeology degree under my belt.

In 2016, I started sharing travel guides to Passionate Baker Travels, and I cannot tell you the joy this has brought me! I am a meticulous researcher and planner, so getting to share my travel recommendations and knowledge in this little nook of the internet feels truly wonderful. If I can point even one person to the best cocktails of their life in Osaka or the best butter chicken in Florence, then putting the effort into creating this space has been worth it. As an avid blog-reader myself, I’d never share anywhere that we haven’t traveled to and truly loved.
