Yes, we are taking the meetups a bit too serious -not!  Sarj, Josh and I met up to check out the Abe restaurant since Josh was recommending this place for the meetup.  While thinking of a place to have our dessert, we went to Timezone to play a bit :) and here were the pics.

Today, I met the other 2 members of my group...we are not a big group but it is nice. :)  Both seem fairly nice. I spent most of the day wandering around Bombay with the other girl on my tour (who's name I already forgot...oops...I am so terrible with names).  It was fun.  Time went…

It's been more than 2 months since I last went on an out-of-town trip, and after my trip to Sagada was canceled, I wasn't able to come up with any weekend travel plans wherein my friends can come with me. However, as luck would have it, Richard, a friend I met in Instituto Cervantes de Manila, …

6days later,I came back to the Saigon. 12hours flight from Paris arrived at 5am. It was only 20hours stop-over.  Then I got the phone call from Chris. He came to the airport for sending his son to America at the 4am. He is always staying the place where is I can reach easyly it happen spontane…

Met up with TB Holeydel while he stopped by in Singapore on his way to Australia. He was the one who actually brought me to that street selling souvenirs & textiles next to the Masjid Sultan. I never even knew that place existed (what a bozo I am !), and I often purchase stuff in the main stree…

I really dont want to go back to UK....thats how I feel about working over here and all the people I have met and been in contact with.....I hate to have to leave. :-( Wednesday morning I picked up Becky on the way into the office. She is an 18 year old volunteer from UK who will be helping out at…

After breakfast I went with the free Tuktuk of the hotel to Khao San Road. The thai people were setting up there businesses and tuktuk drivers are willing to take you everything. It was for most of the backpackers a little bit early, so it was not very busy. When I a robbed…

Temprano fuimos a recorrer dos jardines y lo que más asombra en ellos es ver a tantas personas mayores haciendo sus ejercicios de Tai chi, ya sea en grupo o solos. El Jardim Lou Lim Ioc es el más tipicamente chino de todos los de Macao y está lleno de puentes, estanques y templete…

First Dutch version then English version below and as last you will find the Spanish version:   We staan vandaag vroeg op. De wekker gaat om 8 uur. Echter worden wij beide veel eerder wakker deze ochtend omdat er eerst een alarm gaat om 4 uur en daarna om half 5 de Moskee. Wij slapen pa…

Last night was another great experience abroad. Brittany and I went over to Nicole's studio apartment and hung out with her for quite sometime. Her studio apartment rocks! It's bigger than the one Britt and I are currently staying in. It even has a loft (which would be my room presumably) and a…

Back in KL to take our flight to Singapore . . . But before taking off, a little stop at Elma's, another contact of ours from CS. What a breathe of fresh air, this woman was!! We weren't too crazy about finding ourselves back in this city, since we'd already visited everything we wanted to during…

I arrived in Japan through Narita Airport. As usual, the customs officer had a serious face on, as he tried to be professional and aloof. But with my excitement, I just smiled at him, refusing my mood to be ruined. My flight from JFK to Detroit to Narita went off without a hitch. I was even seate…

I woke up early today because I wanted to be at the Marine Park and begin snorkeling before the sun rises to its scorching heat temperature. I took a quick breakfast, wrapped 2 slices of white bread, stuffed it in my backpack and walked northwards from Gaya Street to the Jesselton Point Ferry Termi…

"Ketupat sayur" vendor, I think he is the second earliest vendor that passes my house in the morning. *The earliest is "tukang roti" (the vendor who sells bread and buns).* He always passes aroun 6.30 AM. And he always waits for a while in front of my house. Just like today, he waited in front of …
