Born to Travel.
Long time no see! After traveling China for a month, I’m back in Wi-Fi heaven – Laos, in this case. So I’m back in the game, catching up. Having a limited internet access made me more efficient in some way, and made me frustrated in other ways. But I liked the feeling that [...] Read more »
Two segregated cultures While walking down the street, it almost felt like I was constantly bouncing two different worlds back and forth. One world with old Chinese people with their markets, electric equipment stores and outdoor food stalls, and another world with tourists attractions and fancy restaurants. Those two exist at the same place, [...] 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 »

It’s been almost a week since I walked over to China. Stayed overnight at Zhuhai, Guangdong and now it’s been four days at Yangshuo, Guangxi. There were many reasons why I choose to travel China from the beginning but I can’t say I’m glad I’m here just yet. Well, the scenery is more [...] Read more »
Dine in Hong Kong, what a joyful time, every single day. Dim Sum, I knew that. But I didn’t think Hong Kong as a culinary getaway destination – other than Dim Sum, but it was, totally was. During about a month I traveled Hong Kong, I tasted different meal every day, found new [...] Read more »
