Welcome, Traveling Foodie!

Hi! I’m Shelby, a travel and food enthusiast, and the voice behind The Wayfaring Foodie. I was born and raised in Colorado and met my now husband, Luke, in high school. We have always loved food and enjoyed exploring Denver’s food scene early in our relationship. We fell in love with traveling internationally in 2017 when we went to Paris, France with our two best friends. After that, The Wayfaring Foodie was born so I could share our travel and food experiences with you. In May of 2023, we decided to travel full-time as digital nomads for a year. When we aren’t traveling, we are enjoying all that Colorado has to offer with our dog, Kala, friends, and family. My goal is to help you travel more with confidence and ease, if you have a 9-5 career with limited PTO or dream of becoming a digital nomad or anything in between! My intention with this blog is to inspire you to try something new, whether that is trying a unique local dish or traveling somewhere you hadn’t considered before. I hope you will join us in exploring all the world has to offer!
