My Idea of a Marathon

Posted by Darwin Garza


I plan on spending all Sunday watching Anthony Bourdain No Reservations on the Travel Channel I have recorded on my new DVR I after checking out TV By Direct at TV By Direct. I adore this show and the host is just great. A lot of my friends find him arrogant or smug, but I find him to be intelligent and humorous. He travels all over the world exploring exotic cuisine. The show focuses on the dishes that generations of locals have perfected. It’s never about the tourists beaten path, but the culture and the people who make up each and every country. After browsing my recorded list, I see that I have one episode from Brazil. My family and I are traveling to Brazil in a month and I have intention of indulging myself on the cuisine, culture and tropical paradise. Maybe I will learn of a few places or dishes I must visit or try while I’m there. I certainly want to pick up how to travel like a local and not like a tourist! I think Anthony Bourdain No Reservations offers valuable lessons on how to do just that. You live a charmed sort of life Mr. Bourdain!
