You know that taste is one of the most evocative senses, so for you, food is at the heart of every trip. Like Chef Jen Monroe, you make it your mission to find the most exciting flavors in any destination. It might be a special ingredient you can only get in one place (but you’ll never tell where), the most inventive food truck, a winemaker pioneering a new technique, or just a really spectacular cup of coffee—your appetite for culinary discovery is insatiable, and it’s what make your travel unique to you.
You’re a Travel Foodie!
Congratulations!

Family is your top priority. Much like artist Tyler Thrasher and his wife Molly, you know that exploring the world at a young age is the best education. You’re always exposing your children to experiences that broaden their horizons, from cool museums and new cuisines to connecting with locals who have completely different lifestyles. Traveling may look a little different than before you had kids, but now you have more loved ones to enjoy it with. It’s a win-win!
You’re a Family Tripper!
Congratulations!

You know that to feed your hunger for art, music, film, and food, staying at home simply isn’t an option. Much like Marine Biologist Melissa Cristina Márquez, you’ll travel to any corner of the earth to embrace cool cultural experiences. You’re just as likely to book a reservation at an under-the-radar restaurant as you are to spend the day touring a series of museums or a night hearing a local band. Every interaction is an opportunity to get a more complete sense of place and make your trip as unique as you are.
You’re an Immersive Explorer!
Congratulations!

You know that true bonds are formed through unforgettable experiences, so you’re always on the hunt for new adventures and memories to be made with the one you love. You’re cut from the same cloth as Steven and Emily Grace Acres, a powerhouse creative couple who writes, designs, develops, and photographs and measures success, in part, by the number of trips taken each year. From culture-forward city escapes to excitement-filled excursions that test your teamwork and trips where the main goal is relaxing, you know your one constant will always be exploring the world together.
You’re a Romantic Voyager !

You know that travel means discovery, so you seek out wonder like it’s your destiny. Just like adventure photographer and blogger Paulina Dao, you’re a modern Indiana Jones. Exploration is the only goal—it could be hiking off the beaten path, eating unidentified local delicacies, or totally getting off the grid. You don’t ask friends for recommendations—charting your own course is what makes a trip perfect for you.
You’re a Go Your Own Wayer!
Congratulations!

Practicing with your significant other.
D
Hiring a guide for maximum cultural immersion despite the language barrier.

Winging it. Travel is about being out of your comfort zone!
