Tom Burson is a travel and food journalist based between the Deep South and Central Europe. He chases oft-forgotten trails, unexpected traditions, and the stories food tells about a place—like driving Mississippi backroads for gas station dining, ambling across Alabama’s barbecue trail, or hitchhiking across the Balkans. His work appears in National Geographic, Departures, Vogue, and more. Follow him on Instagram @tommyburson_.
