Let's start here.

The Gastro World Letters n.1

Welcome to Gastro World,

You’re probably wondering… what in the world is Gastro World? Gastro World is essentially my world that happens to have A LOT of food in it. Food is not just a meal to me, food is culture, food is healing, food is my love language. I believe that food tastes so much better when you know the story behind it and through Gastro World, I want to provide the stories and connect with people through it. 

Food shaped me to be the person that I am today, literally and figuratively. It’s a vehicle that I drive through life with, just like my Honda, it takes me places (that would've worked so much better if I had a Toyota lol). Through my journey with food, I was able to find myself and figure out the value that I have to offer the world.

What am I hoping to get out from this?

 My goal in life is to connect with others through food. I’ve been able to pursue this goal by delivering recipes for thousands of people to recreate and follow via my social media channels. But with Gastro World, I am hoping to dive deeper and go beyond the food.  I’m sharing my life journey & stories in hope of inspiring others. If you’re down for the journey, consider subscribing.

I’ve been sending out free recipes weekly to my newsletter subscribers so the weekly recipe will still be $free.99 along with some  articles, but if you want to support me and gain access to my exclusive content the ask is $5/month or $50/year. With the subscription you will have access to the free weekly recipe, all of my articles, an exclusive podcast and more. With your support I will continue to be able to stay my a** in my own kitchen, not work for anyone else, continue making content, create delicious recipes, share useful kitchen knowledge and fund my Vietnam trip ( for research purposes and when the borders open back up, duh!).

It me, living my best life in Vietnam ❤️

Growing up as the oldest child of immigrant parents, I felt like I had to hold a lot in, suck it up and just figure it out, there just wasn’t a safe space for me.  Now, as a creator with a niche I feel so tied down to post only food, but I am so much more than just food knowledge and recipes, I want my own space to create and grow, actually,  I NEED my own safe space to share, create and connect. I created my own-- through Gastro World!

As much as this is for me, I really want this to be a safe space for you all as well. This is a place to feel, heal and eat so as I take you along on this journey with me, feel free to write to (email)  me & share your story. Let’s blast off ! 🚀
