Karl Peterson

The Dairy Free Traveler
Founder, President
New York, NY
Karl Peterson is an avid traveler, passionate about food and food-related entertainment, completely allergic to dairy. He is founder, owner and principle contributor to "The Dairy Free Traveler" blog. The Dairy Free Traveler perfectly dovetails two of his greatest areas of interest: traveling near and far, and searching for great cuisine (especially dairy free!)

The Dairy Free Traveler publishes original material about the dairy free lifestyle, eating the best food in the most interesting destinations around the world. Karl's tours take him from thriving New York City, to exotic Marrakesh, to elegant Paris bistros -- (yes! even Parisians have gotten on the dairy free bandwagon.)

The Dairy Free Traveler himself also engages with independent dairy free food producers, highlighting new dairy free product launches and events that support dairy free entrepreneurs.

Peterson is among the top 3 most widely read Trip Advisor reviewers in New York City and is repeatedly cited as a Top Contributor at Trip Advisor. His reviews have garnered more than 140,000 readers -- half in the U.S., and half among the many countries he has visited around the world.

When asked to describe himself, Karl says: "A frequent traveler, I enjoy writing about my experiences both at home and abroad, finding great food that accommodates my dairy allergy. My goal is to engage a community of foodies and travelers in a lively exchange and debate. I learn as much from my readers as I hope they do from me."

Also a trained musician with degrees from Columbia University and Wagner College and an active member of the New York City Continuo Collective.
