My dad and I headed out to Chicago this weekend for a quick, spur of the moment trip. Tickets were bought on Thursday, and we hopped on the plane Friday evening. My cousin and her husband live in Buck Town (which i'm obsessed with, by the way), and my aunt was visiting her from Mexico for a few wee…

On Tuesday I decided to take part on a boat tour on the Chicago River. Before I went to Chicago I read a book called "The Devil in The Windy City" by Erik Larsson. Subtitel "Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that changed America". Besides the story of a murderer you can find lots of interestin…

Chicago is one of my favorite cities! I'm fairly certain that I'll eventually end up living there. It's a little cold during the winter but the summers are beautiful and more than makes up for the few months of chill. This trip was made during the winter... ice on the water and all! I think it's …

My favorite city in the U.S.

I grew up just north of the city. "Da Bears" was part of every day conversation and you just might have run into Michael Jordan at the Mall.

Set off with Jesse to travel by car to Chicago because he was going to start his masters there in the Autumn. It was an amazing City, stayed with Jesse's Aunty. Got lost on the El, went up Sears tower and walked round the University and the Zoo.

it's just jazz clubs and skyscrapers...

i went to visit a friend in milwaukee. it was my first time to this part of the U.S. i was fortunate enough to couple the trip with New York Mets games. got to see two road wins, on in Milwaukee and on e in Chicago. sadly i only got to spend the day in Chicago but look forward to going back. it had such a good vibe. it reminded me of NYC which i love.

Jan 13 - Mar 7 2007. From -30C to 30C the next day... One $800 airpass = Kelowna BC (Big White), Miami FL, New York NY, Boston MA, Miami FL (again), Key West FL, St John's NFLD, Chicago IL, Whitehorse YK, San Francisco CA, (Vancouver: brief visit home for Chinese New Year's and to unload winter gear), Los Angeles CA, Phoenix/Tucson AZ and too many YYZ visits.

We went to see Breaking Benjamin, Puddle of Mudd, and Three Days Grace. But ended up seeing so much more. It was a whole lot of fun thanks to our good friend Kim.

Brrrrr, we're not going outside today until absolutely necessary, the wind is registering 8 on the Beaufort Scale, giving a temperature of -23. Argh!! The weather has been doing some very odd things, the beautiful snow covered Lincoln Park turned into a lake when the temperature shot up and it pour…

A week long maraton through some of the most famous business schools of the East Coast in preparation for the MBA application process.

Between Oct 25, 2007 and Oct 24th 2008 I did bunch of traveling. This is just where, as I find them, I will post some of the many (and I mean well over 2000) pictures I have on my computer.

First experience of the big city with my best friends...
