by Josh a. Greenfield (Author), Jaqueline Z. Yngvason (Author)

Do you dream of traveling the world but feel held back, not knowing what you'll be able to eat, or if you'll get sick due to a long list of food restrictions or allergies - If so, fear not, Tasty Freedom was written for anyone who wants to be a wellness warrior, having the adventure of a lifetime and eating incredible food without the fear. Before meeting Josh, Jaquy spent her life struggling with sickness due to Celiac Disease and severe food allergies, never feeling confident to travel to foreign countries where she didn't speak the language. Over time that shifted with experience and support which inspired them to travel the world together. After a few years of domestic travel, lecturing at allergy free expos and learning how to turn the burden of food allergies into a blessing, Josh and Jaquy planned a month trip to adventure through Vietnam with the intention of creating content that would teach others with food allergies how to safely navigate Asia. With only a week away from their trip Jaquy got terribly sick. Knowing that the problem wasn't food related, Jaquy was thrown into a wave of panic and they nearly had to cancel their plans. After discovering that it was an adverse hormonal reaction to having her IUD taken out, they planned and packed accordingly. With suitcases packed to the brim with protein powders, vitamins, and chia seeds, they took the leap. Their trip was filled with delicious and life-changing adventure at times and plagued by non-food related sickness at others, but the journey and mission were preserved and the memories and tips are stored in this book. Discover how they managed to travel around Vietnam, eating incredibly delicious meals, cooking in hostels and sharing food with locals, all the while never having one food allergy related issue. Follow their journey while learning tips and tricks along the way to travel like a total badass regardless of the limitations you think you are stuck with. Tasty Freedom is the wellness adventure of a lifetime and will completely transform the way you approach travel, whether it be as a solo adventurer, with friends, or with your partner.
