I’m Harry Pagan Coss, an author, creative, and cultural explorer. I try to bridge my work between the ancient and the emerging.
Born in Puerto Rico and shaped by decades of travel, media, food, and design, I’ve always been a storyteller at heart. To me, presence, beauty, and depth are more than aesthetics. To me, they are a way of life.
Once known as the “World Food Explorer” on television, I had the joy of bringing flavors, stories, and cultures to audiences across Latin America and the U.S. through live television, and the series Guided by Flavors on Turner Broadcasting. Over the years, my journey has taken me through networks like Univision, NBC-Telemundo, TV Azteca, and MTV Tr3s, and to stages and festivals around the world, as a spokesperson for the World Food Travel Association and collaborator with brands like Nespresso and Tequila Origen Sagrado. No matter the project, my passion for connection, culture, and soulful expression has always been at the center.
Today, my focus has expanded from food to the future, from business to the present moment.
My latest book, Digital Decorum: A Guide to AI Etiquette, is a bold, timely invitation to reclaim our humanity in a world increasingly shaped by technology. Through it, I offer guidance, clarity, and grace to those navigating the delicate balance between innovation and authentic connection.
Beyond writing, I weave storytelling into commerce through my ventures like Hariwald Luxury, and my background as a restaurateur. Whether crafting illuminated books, creating an AI-powered recipe assistant, or curating spaces that calm the soul, my mission remains the same: to help others live more mindfully, beautifully, and powerfully.
Whenever possible, you’ll find me in my one-acre garden — a place of quiet replenishment, reflection, and creativity.
I hold a Master’s in Public Health but more than degrees or titles, it’s my love of culture and nature, my reverence for the sacred, and my belief in the transformative power of creativity that shape everything I do.
Welcome to my world —
where every detail tells a story, and every story invites you to live with deeper presence and greater meaning. I appreciate your stopping by.
