Natalie Rodriguez is a professionally trained chef, self-proclaimed poet, wife, dog mom, and full-time traveller from the USA. Growing up in her Puerto Rican grandmothers kitchen, she has a natural affinity for cooking. She attended the Culinary Institute of Charleston in 2013 and quickly started a career as a chef. But after over a decade of the food and beverage grind, she felt a relentless pull to travel and to expand her humanity. She and her wife Abigail quit their jobs, sold all of their belongings, and bought a van to travel around the US. Three years and counting of life on the road, and Natalie has cooked in her van in just about every landscape you can think of from Baja and Mexico, to Canada and Alaska. She does the occasional private chef dinner and shares her life journey on her Instagram page @letsplayrideandseek. There you can find excerpts from her travels, cooking videos and recipes.
