Welcome to Culinary Travels by The Sophisticated Life! Culinary Travels are small group trips curated with the intention of learning about a destination’s history and culture through its foods and beverages.

Imagine wine tasting in France & South Africa, doing a tagine cooking class in Morocco, truffle hunting in Northern Italy, dining at Michelin Star restaurants in Spain & one of the top restaurants in the world in Mexico City but also experiencing amazing street food in Thailand. Nothing is off limits when it comes to full immersion into the food culture of our destination. 

I am Nadeen of The Sophisticated Life Blog. After 10 years of travel blogging and content creation, I have decided to take this show on the road! I have visited 6 continents-who is coming with me to Antarctica? :-)-all while indulging in great food & wine. It is a wonderful way to communicate with and get to know other people.

My blog has always focused on travel, food & wine. While traveling, I hunt down wineries, wine tours to wine regions, award-winning restaurants, local markets, food tours..etc..And, during the pandemic I received my 1st wine certification-WSET (Wine & Spirits Education Trust) Level 2 with distinction.

Over the years I have written numerous destination guides and authored 3 best-selling Amazon travel E-books. These E-books cover popular and lesser-known destinations, food and wine recommendations and USA wine regions.

I have often been asked by readers and my social media family-“When are you going to start planning trips?” “I want to travel with you!” If the pandemic taught me anything is that you must seize opportunities when you can. Travel when you are able.

Nadeen

The truth is, I have always planned trips for myself, family and friends. I love doing the research, curating itineraries and I am detail oriented. With Culinary Travels by The Sophisticated Life, I will be able to bring people to the places I love and discover new places. What is better than that?

I have enjoyed building connections in the travel, food, and wine industry. Through these connections and collaborations, I plan to give you incredible and unique experiences. I also plan to support BIPOC, Woman-owned and local businesses and work with tour companies who do the same.

I look forward to seeing you on a future trip! Booking now for Culinary Travels launching in 2023!

Please Like, Comment, Share if you can see this! 
I have 19,000 followers and Instagram is showing my posts to 50 people. Like WTH?!! 
Quality posts with good pictures, videos & travel information and I get 350 views on reels With 19K followers! When I started making reels with no effort I received triple of that. 

I’m being told it’s just a competitive algorithm and nothing is wrong with my account but that is hard to believe. It’s very frustrating as a content creator when working with brands. 

Who else feels my pain? 😣😣

  • Have I mentioned that I hate cold 🥶 weather?!! It’s cold again in Atlanta and I’m miserable! 

The only time I’m ok with being cold is if I’m in beautiful surroundings in a cold weather place with a purpose like Whistler BC! 

I was there last April and Oh M G!!! I ❤️ it! 
Stunning views 🎑
Delicious food & wine 🍷 & unique experiences like the vodka ice 🧊 bar @thebearfoot 
Amazing skiing 🎿 of course 
The luxury indoor/outdoor spa @scandinavewhis 
Cultural stops @slccwhistler 
And of course my stay @fairmontwhistlr who doesn’t want to stay at a Chateau resort in the mountains 🏔️?! 

Have you been to @gowhistler ? If not catch that flight ✈️ this winter!

  • I am so excited for my @culinarytravels_thesophislife trip with @goaheadtours to Northern Italy 🇮🇹 and I will be telling you all about it at 6pm ET tonight! One of the stops is Bologna and we will be taking a pasta 🍝 making class!! 
Each day we will be incorporating fun food & wine 🍷 experiences along with cultural tours. Join us!! Spots are limited. Sign up for my newsletter for details!

Repost from @goaheadtours

Don’t just visit Italy, take a little of it home with you. “The pasta-making class in Bologna is an absolute highlight of the tour. The base recipe for the dough is also so easy to remember and replicate back home,” said staffer Kyle. Book your Food & Wine: Northern Italy & the Italian Riviera tour to start your culinary journey.
  • Did anyone see this video by @oprah over the Holidays? It was hilarious 🤣 

She dropped the truffle she was about to use in her lightly scrambled eggs 🍳 It landed on the floor where her dogs 🐕 had recently been seen in the video. She blew on it before using it and laughed calling it the “30 second rule” 😅😅
I am sure her floors are cleaner than any of ours. 

I credit Oprah for learning more about truffles. I had tried truffle fries in restaurants but I have since had them with other dishes. 

In October on the @culinarytravels_thesophislife trip to Northern Italy 🇮🇹 we will be truffle hunting in Alba with a dog 🐕 and an experienced hunter from a multigenerational truffle hunting family-yes it’s that serious!! 

I can’t wait!! This is just one of the exceptional experiences that are part of the food + wine tour I have curated with @goaheadtours 

Tune in tomorrow LIVE at 6pm to hear all the details. Bookings for this trip start on Thursday!! Remember Morocco sold out in 2 days!!
