The Foods and my Travels
“There are moments I would rather
just stay at home and watch the
television all day long, but the call of
nature and the call of the Earth is too
strong to ignore,”
Dennis Cunanan writes in his new
journal entry for his Food and Travel
blog.
“I do not travel for writing, but I write because I travel. My parents have long
instilled in me the art of wordsmithing, so that I could share through words
the wonders of this world. Sometimes, though, I get tired, too.”
Dennis Cunanan is the son of two famous National Geographic
researchers and environmentalists. He was hailed as the NatGeo Man of
the World for having lived in almost all continents (yes, Antarctica
included), and for travelling in so many places around the world. He has
inherited his parents’ love for travel, nature, adventure, and the many
varied cultures across the world. In his spare time, he maintains this blog
and thus in his own way contributes to the growing collection of travel
literature.
Below is Dennis Cunanan’s newest article, written during his latest spiritual
retreat in the mountains of Monteluna, Castalone.

The darkness crept up on me as I sat on a lone bench in the park,
blanketed by silence. In my heart, I find no peace, in spite of the stillness of
nature that surrounds me right at this moment. Perhaps, sometimes, we all
question our existence… our purpose. I’ve been doing this for the longest
time—traveling from one country to another, writing about cultures,
discovering hidden places, reporting about delicacies and food. I’ve

probably met thousands of people, and I regret that I don’t always
remember their names, but the moments we spent together will always be
dear to me. The world is my home. All the people who live in it, I consider
my family.But sometimes, I want my own home. A home that is not always
the world. A home that is anchored in a single place, with a single family.
Perhaps a wife that will be waiting for me after a normal day’s work. Maybe
there will be kids playing in the family room, and hot dinner waiting at the
kitchen table. Maybe we will be sharing normal stories over dinner. Stories
that don’t involve almost getting mauled by a lion during the latest shoot for
NatGeo, or eating sun-dried frog legs grilled until I think I’m eating
carcinogen instead of food. I love my life. This is the life I have chosen for
myself, but never once had I imagined that I will get tired of it. I’ve lived this
life for as long as I can remember, which is probably why I’m having these
thoughts now. Thoughts of settling down. Finally.
Thus, Dennis Cunanan writes in his journal. Do you think Dennis should
stop traveling and start settling down? We will be waiting for your
comments.
