Meet Gary, a self-taught explorer with an insatiable curiosity for the world’s cuisines and cultures. Over the past decade, this intrepid autodidact has journeyed through 22 countries across North and South America, covering more than 15,000 miles by sailboat. From savoring street tacos in Mexico to grilling fresh-caught fish off the coast of the Galapagos, Gary has immersed himself in the flavors and traditions of each region. Beyond his passion for food and travel, he’s a fierce advocate for truth and justice, currently entangled in federal litigation to challenge what he sees as an overreaching U.S. government. For Gary, every mile sailed and every dish tasted is a step closer to understanding the complex tapestry of our world.
