Hello. I'm Angela White, the creator, blogger and event planner behind Figs and Flights.

Life fueled by food and travel is my motto and what drives Figs and Flights content. My goal is that you, too, will be inspired to enjoy a life filled with great eats and adventures. 

My obsession with food began in very early childhood. One of my favorite memories is the fig tree in my Pap's (Grandfather's) yard. I'd painstakingly wait for the juicy fruits to ripen all summer long and we'd dive into them together. These days I still love figs and have a tree in my own yard! I love to cook and live for finding excellent food on trips. I enjoy fresh and healthy food and seriously sweet treats. I'm a pescatarian: I eat fish and seafood but not meat and poultry. 

Travel is my other true love. I catch flights as often as I can. I'm no stranger to airports and you bet I can pack a mean carry on bag complete with TSA approved liquids. When road trips are necessary I make a terribly sleepy co-pilot. I love an adventure at sea and always keep my preferred sea-sickness medication in my purse at all times.

Now I live in Kailua, Hawaii with my husband "Mr. Figs," a bossy old cat and a playful dog. I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and have also lived in Seattle, Washington. 

My "real job" is event and wedding planning at Angela White Events. 

​At home I'm typically in the kitchen with music blasting, over-planning my next vacation, reading, or watching a movie I've already seen 100 times. ​

I've traveled to 11 countries. 
  1. The Bahamas: Nassau
  2. Canada: Vancouver, BC
  3. Mexico: Acapulco and to Playa Del Carmen
  4. Italy: (twice) Rome, Naples, Sicily, Venice, Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast
  5. The Vatican City
  6. Ireland: Galway, Doolin, and Dublin
  7. Greece: Athens and Mykonos
  8. France: Paris (twice) and Normandy
  9. Portugal: Sintra and Lisbon
  10. Spain: specifically Barcelona
  11. Switzerland: Interlacken and Zurich
