Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara was the final stop on our gluten free Southern Californian road trip this Spring. Santa Barbara is another lovely town and I’m happy to report I managed to find somewhere celiac friendly to enjoy a gluten free meal. I also came across a few other restaurants offering gluten free options so if you’re planning to travel to Santa Barbara for work or just for fun, there are safe options waiting for you! (more…)

Gluten free nachos!

Veggie stirfry

San Diego is an awesome city with a bunch of celiac friendly options for gluten free travellers. Sometimes gluten free travelling is quite the challenge and celiacs have to take whatever they can find but it really wasn’t too much of a challenge at all to find safe places to eat here. (more…)

Gluten Free Orange County

Extremely tasty gluten free lasagna!

On our gluten free Southern California road trip this Spring we spent a couple of days in Orange County. We had fun times  exploring the area with our friends who live in Newport Beach. I thought it would be easier to find celiac friendly places to eat down here than it was but I did find some. Newport Beach itself has True Food Kitchen but as we had eaten here the night before in Santa Monica we wanted to try something new. (more…)

Gluten Free Chile Fried Catfish!

Awe-some!



Portland is a lovely city full of friendly locals and lots and lots of bikes. I spend a couple of days there last summer on the way back to San Francisco after getting married in Iowa. Portland is a fantastic city for gluten free travellers. There are so many eating out options that no celiac headed to Portland will need to worry about finding something safe and delicious to eat. Through research I did before arriving in Portland, recommendations from friends who live in the city and simply walking past and being excited by gluten free menus I found a whole bunch of gluten free breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert places in the city. Thank you Portland, Gluten Free Traveller was very impressed with your selection. (more…)

Gluten Free Labelling Around The World

Gluten free labelling in Argentina

Gluten free travelling and wondering what kind of gluten free labelling legislation the country you’re visiting has? You’ve come to the right place. Gluten free labelling differs hugely depending on where you are in the world so it’s important to know what you’re dealing with before you go somewhere. When you’re celiac you can’t simply rely on looking for products labelled as ‘gluten free’. You must first find out what that means where you are. In some countries there is legislation to prevent companies labelling their products as gluten free unless they fulfill high safety standards. Other countries however are free to label products with ‘gluten free’ without fulfilling any standard at all. (more…)

Tips For Gluten Free Road Tripping

The northernmost tip of mainland Europe


Road tripping can be a lot of fun and a lot of that fun can be not knowing what you will discover and where you will end up. These things are a little more difficult when you are travelling gluten free but not impossible. To ensure our gluten free road trip turns out to be both safe and successful we need to be organised, plan ahead and over pack the gluten free goodies. The best road trip I’ve ever done was a gluten free one. John and I drove 4000 miles in a car we bought for £100. It took us through 9 countries in 10 days. If you’re anxious about your first or next road trip have a read at my simple tips  for gluten free road tripping. (more…)

Atlas Mountains, Morocco

Planning a city break or a long weekend somewhere new? Gluten free travelling to a location you haven’t yet explored can be stressful if you’re aren’t ready for it. Where will I eat? What will I eat? What if I get sick? What if I don’t speak the language?

I’ve been on many gluten free city breaks and long weekends throughout Europe, the States and South America. I always have a great time and I’m always pleasantly surprised at the gluten free goodies I find. You will be too, but just incase you don’t believe me, have a read at my Gluten Free Tips For A Successful Gluten Free City Break! (more…)

Lots of gluten free options!

Australia is one of the most celiac friendly countries in the world. How could Gluten Free Traveller not include information on what it’s like living and travelling in Australia as a celiac. My sister in law is Australian and she and my brother plan to move there with my beautiful niece in a couple of years. I look forward to visiting them and getting in about all the wonderful gluten free products this country has to offer! (more…)
