ROAD TRIP (CONTINUED) You can also turn the wine tours and tastings into blended experiences, which can include other elements such as a dinner paired with a tasting and live music. Blended experiences are perfect for a romantic trip for two, a group of friends, a senior adult excursion, group retreats, and corporate experiences. The length of the tour depends entirely on your preferences and can easily be a day excursion, an overnight trip, a weekend away, or paired with previously scheduled special events or retreats. Packages can be as extensive as an all-inclusive, fully managed trip to as limited as having FOCI simply provide the transportation and itinerary for the excursion. Whichever package you choose, these tours are a great way to celebrate any special occasion or just time away from the normal routine. For more information about wine tours and other excursions and experiences offered by FOCI, visit www.focidestination.com. To begin planning your personalized experience, you can call 888-316FOCI, email info@focidestination.com, or fill out the contact form found on the website.

T r avel R ecom mend at ion s for Food ies “Slovenia borders Italy and Croatia, which is to say there are a lot of shared values in and around food; they have really great cheese, dairy, beef, pasta, but very few tourists, hardly any. So if you love Italy, that kind of specific travel and food experience, particularly Northern Italy, because you can see the Alps from where they are. It’s picture perfect, a beautiful place, and also where orange wine is from.” Dennis also highly recommends Costa Rica, Hawaii and Finland. “Most people love the idea of travel, but we tend to pick the same places when we travel, and there is nothing wrong with that, they are amazing for a reason, but when you get off the beaten path a little bit, you learn the difference between vacation and travel.” In addition to travels, Dennis is a huge advocate for supporting local businesses and the connection grilling in your own backyard can make. “Grilling is inherently communal. You talk to your neighbors, they smell it, they ask you what you’re cooking; the whole act of it is a community. One of the most common fears Dennis hears from people cooking and/or grilling at home is, ‘where do I start?’ Dennis recommends cooking the things that bring you joy — things that are on a restaurant menu you can’t NOT order because you’re so pumped that those dishes are on there. “Find the things that you love. Take the stress out of food. Feed people because all they really care about is spending time with you. Bring joy back into the kitchen.” CityLifestyle.com/Evans
