On our last day in Nepal, we were booked at Kantipur Temple House in Thamel Kathmandu. It is walking distance to the shopping center and night life of Thamel, but at the same time, quite situated away from the chaos which was just perfect.
After our long drive from Pokhara and exploring the places on the way like Bandipur and the Trisuli River, Niraj of Himalayan Encounters invited us for dinner and took quickly around Thamel. Here I got to see the markets still alive at night bustling with tourists and people enjoying then night. It was a Monday night though and Niraj said, it is more active on the weekends.
We wanted to get a massage after the entire day’s activities but we decided to head back to the hotel to rest and relax.
First Impressions
I’ve already seen pictures of Kantipur Temple House and I was very excited to stay in […]

You can never go wrong dining in Din Tai Fung if you want authentic Taiwanese food!
Din Tai Fung is a popular Taiwanese food chain that even opened branches in other countries such as Australia, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, the United States and Thailand. I often wonder, when will they ever open one in the Philippines?
This restaurant has been highly recommended by my friends and when I saw the name of the restaurant on our group tour itinerary, I was just ecstatic!
Me, Kevin (thank you for this photo) and Mica
We ate at Din Tai Fung during lunch time. In the morning, we visited the Eslite bookstore known for their great selection of books, opening 24 hours a day. Believe me, 30 minutes to roam around wasn’t enough! I got lost a few times! Then, from here, we walked all the way to Taipei 101. It was a […]

Taipei is a very exciting city! One could appreciate more how the people of Taiwan go about their way of living when you visit some of the temples in the area.
It is inevitable to talk about religion and the Japanese colonization upon visiting the Baoan Temple. Our tour guides asked about the main religion in the Philippines since they also want to get to know us a little bit more. With that, they also shared that the two main religion in Taiwan is Taoism and Buddhism.
I don’t fully understand the main components of Taoism but from what I got from their introduction, Taoism is all about living in harmony with the “Tao” that means path, way, or principle. Their gods are usually people who lived extraordinary lives and made a great difference in their community.
As for Buddhism, I was quite familiar of it when I visited Nepal. Nepal actually is […]

I went back to my hometown in Bacolod and chanced upon passing by our owld Bowling center. Â It was empty! Â I felt sad because bowling is just so much fun! Â It’s a social sport. Â You bowl and hang out with your friends over a few food and drinks. Â Best part is, it is healthy!
I miss those days.
Speaking of old-school bowling bags, my next bag for review is exactly just like that. Â Crampler’s Ultimate Exit bag looks very vintage athletic. Â It’s a one-size-fits-all-needs and genre defying combo of schmick sporty chic and shopaholic strength capacity.
It comes in different colors but my ultimate favorite is the combination of gray and yellow. Â Like the one I have here!
Ultimate ExitP 3,750
It’s a perfect bag to travel for me. Â When I travel, I can’t let go of my SLR, phones and iPad (which I use as map and tour guide). Â These things won’t fit […]

If you’re in the mood for some Korean food at Bonifacio High Street, then you should check out Sariwon Korean Barbecue. I’m not a fan of Korean food, which makes Sariwon all the more special, because I actually enjoyed dining in the restaurant last time I was there. Sariwon High Street prides itself for having […]

I don’t settle with just any bag. Â To me, a bag must be a wonderful partner in my daily life. Â A friend once told me that her mom would reprimand her if she doesn’t bring any bag with her because it’s so “un-girly.”
A girl carries a lot of things: makeup, power planners, gadgets, dogs?
Unlike guys, we don’t wear pants all the time and we don’t have access to pockets mostly. Â Even if we do, we would look like stuffed lumpiang shanghai with all the things we are trying to carry!
On a normal day, I’m a pretty busy chic. Â I carry the above mentioned things (except for dogs). Â I prefer carrying an oversized bag sometimes because I would totally look more petite with it I’m kidding. Â That just means I can stuff many things like umbrella, scarf and other items if I shop around.
So, I was looking for a […]

They say “Do what you LOVE to do and you’ll never work a day.”
I say, “Do what you’re good at.” Work is just work. Â And when you DO what’ you’re good at for a job, work is just gonna be easy.
Â
I’ve been there, done that.
Sometimes, when you do what you LOVE to do as a JOB, it gets political and people, clients and everyone else would dictate how you do your job (which you love). Â It would take its toll on you. Â The great PERIL in this situation is that you would lose interest on the thing you LOVE to do. Â It happens to me quite a lot of times and to a few friends as well.
A friend LOVED video production. Â But when he started doing it as a job, he lost interest. Â
Another friend loved graphic design. Â But, when dictated here and there on how he needed to do […]
