A little about me

Laura Arante, San Diego

Hi, I'm Laura. I live in San Diego, and I'm usually on my way to eat something.

I'm Filipino and Italian, so food was never just food in my family. It was how we showed up for each other. That's still how I pick places: would I bring the people I love here?

My feed is restaurants, coffee, travel, music festivals and the small moments in between. I like places with a point of view, good design and a reason to go back.

If I post it, I'd actually go back.
