For many years I've dreamed of traveling the route Phileas Fogg took in Jules Vern's famous novel, Around the World in 80 Days, but with a special twist. My adventure would be a culinary voyage — cooking, eating, and sharing the food of each amazing destination with the people I met along the way!

Of course I couldn't just follow the footsteps of Fogg, there must be a modern-day challenge to keep it interesting. Could I circumnavigate the globe with only 30 days, and an AU$20,000 budget?

To make sure I can experience as much as possible I'm allowed to top-up my coffers by washing dishes, cooking meals and even busking, but I cannot accept travel or money without earning it.
