If you plan on traveling south of the border, there are lots of amazing places to eat and depending on what country you’re in, you’ll find a variety of native foods oozing with flavor and well, just all-around yum. We stumbled upon this cool Toronto-based babe named Ayngelina who – bitten by the travel bug – has been touring the world solo, all the while taking tons of photos of food and documenting her trips on her blog Bacon is Magic. Her food photos made us want to put on our travel boots and hightail it! Have a look at some of the delectable meals she encountered through Mexico and South America. We’re hoping to catch up with her to chat about what it takes to travel solo, especially as a female…
