Born to Travel.
Gold and orange. Possibly these are the colours that can represent Luang Prabang. Gold from temples and monasteries and orange of monk’s robe. You can see the gold painted stupa on the top of the hill, walk with the monks along the river and pass through temples. Also it’s clean and pleasant. It is [...] Read more »
One of the best things about being in a tropical country is their fruit. How can I resist having mango, mangosteen, and papaya everyday? It is more desirable because I couldn’t get them in my home country; where there are four significant seasons. And of course, they are sweet and juicy, sour and [...] Read more »
Yay, I’m a winner! While I was traveling to Ngong Kiew, a remote village in Laos, the winner of 36th Photo Roulette is announced, and I’m the one. What a great news! I have to thank to the poor little chickens at Gaotian Market in China. The theme for last round was ‘Depth of [...] Read more »
It’s not a budget friendly place for a backpacker. For HK $399 (US $60), I can do so many things. Though, I visited here again. I made myself an excuse; because I like it. Moreover, Hong Kong Disneyland just opened Toy Story Land and it’s their 5th year anniversary. Which means: special parade! Michael [...] Read more »
Happy Valentine’s Day to all of my readers and friends out there! Don’t be shy to express your love to your special someone, to your pet, to your laptop, to your camera, and mostly to the world. I’m celebrating in Luang Prabang, Laos this year. I’m grateful to say it because I was [...] Read more »

As much as Yangshuo is a beloved travel destination, it welcomes travelers with the broad selection of food. I had some hard time to find myself enjoying the area, but eventually I discovered right places with the right food. Even we met a restaurant owner who are interested in showing his kitchen and [...] Read more »
Kowloon was busy. Kowloon was noisy. Kowloon was full of neon signs and people. Kowloon was a big city. And I’ not a fan of a crowed place. What’s so special about that? Eventhough Kowloon was just another big city, some ways, it captured my eyes. Travelers, Indian tailors, locals, fake Rolex dealers… [...] Read more »
Rice terraces are all around Yunnan Province, and Yuanyang is a good place to start. Yuanyang is divided into two: Nansha and Xinjie and we based ourselves in Xinjie for three days. The journey from Jianshui to Xinjie wasn’t easy but not difficult. The bus got us off at Nansha and we took [...] Read more »
While we were having a hard time in Yangshuo, it was even hard to find a place to eat. All the restaurants in town seem like aiming for the big tourist groups, and they didn’t look like having ‘local cuisine’ as they clammed to. Well, it got better eventually. It was just a matter [...] Read more »
