Tarneka M. Diggs is the founder and travel curator behind TMD Curated Journeys. Her passion for travel was sparked at an early age by her parents, who spent their holiday seasons cruising to new destinations with friends. They would return home with captivating stories of the countries they visited, igniting Tarneka’s curiosity about the world. After graduating from college, Tarneka finally joined her parents on a cruise, and that first adventure was the beginning of a lifelong love affair with travel. Since then, she has explored over 30 countries, each journey deepening her appreciation for the beauty and diversity of our world.
For Tarneka, travel is more than just visiting new places—it’s a way to learn, grow, and connect with different cultures. She believes that food and wine are universal languages that bring people together and offer a window into the heart of a destination. Her travels have taken her to wineries and vineyards across the globe, where she has immersed herself in the art and culture of winemaking. From savoring bold reds in Tuscany to sampling crisp whites in Austrialia, Tarneka continues to expand her knowledge and appreciation of wine.
Food is another cornerstone of Tarneka’s travel philosophy. She sees culinary experiences as a gateway to understanding the traditions and stories of a culture. Whether it’s enjoying street food in Bangkok, learning to make pasta in Italy, or dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant, Tarneka embraces every opportunity to embark on new culinary adventures.
The idea for TMD Curated Journeys was born in Thailand in 2024, inspired by Tarneka’s desire to share her love of travel, food, and wine with others. Today, TMD Curated Journeys is the realization of that dream, offering personalized travel experiences that allow clients to explore the world in meaningful and memorable ways.
