Here’s to a new round of impressions. It’s been a while, I guess I started to be less sensitive to things?
Oribu Gastrobar is located in the trendy district Chueca in Madrid. Food porn ahead! OMG, their food is orgasmic. The ambience, the presentation, the flavour is amazing. Tapas format, but with Asian inspo. The combinations…
The Glass Palace (aka Palacio de Cristal) is an iron/glass architecture found inside the Retiro Park, Madrid. As you know, I am an “arrive first found out later” sort of tourist, so I found this…
I’ve decided to write about my symptoms lol. Even since I’ve passed that 2 years mark, that blog graveyard curse feels real. The more I learn about blogging, the less pleasurable it has become. So…
Review of the Spanish Inquisition Tour by Sandemans, Madrid. Is it worth the money and time?
Followed a local to find these 2 places. No crowd for sure, because there was no one there and NO path for the temple (road was a big ask in this case).
Food porn alert. Beautiful local food from the middle of no where. If you visit Vannes, be sure to check this place out. Found this place north of Vannes in Brittany. So worth the 15min…
Yup, it’s possible. It took me 30min to find my room. LOL Sheradon Cotai has 4001 rooms. Sufficed to say that I was bewildered by this 5 star hotel experience. Welcome to Cotai, Macau!
Travel post focuses on highlights and where to take photos when visiting Musée des Confluences, Lyon
I have passed my 50th post on Japan, but still has not written anything about my favourite business hotel chain. My #1 is Super Hotel, business hotel chain. Many branches have mini-onsens and are located near the train stations. Double bed rooms starts at JPY5,500! They have special rates for 30 days+ stays. (all love from me)
This is a how to bargain hunt type of post. I am a huge fan of “value for money” when it comes to travel. Leisure should never break the bank or be poor value for…
This was a DIY home dish. Super quick. Prep + Cook = 10min
Warm and fussy feeling! Rustic decor, but not the rug and plush sort. Beautiful ambiance for hanging out with friends. It was on the noisy chatter side of things, perhaps not so date friendly despite the dim lighting. We were a group of 6. My friends were previously eating all day long. So it was perfect for trying out tapas without fighting over food lol.
I love pho! There’s magic in the Vietnamese broth and the wonders of rice noodles. After ‘phorathon’ in 13eme, here’s favourite and my worst.
It is OUT!!!!! This travel blogger has gone rogue and got herself on a Canadian beauty podcast. No kidding. Had a fantastic time recording with the crazy Cat Forsley from mylipaddiction.com and my doppelganger Stashy from stashmatters.com. No harm for me to try out some bblogger fun, right?
This was my first Christmas in France!!! Here are 5 things that I’ve observed.
Starting a new chapter in Paris! Never imagined that I’ll land up here. I grew up in South Africa and spoke no French. Ended up meeting my French spouse while working in Shanghai. My hubby…
I have just moved to Paris! No internet at home yet. Living in the dark ages, my friends. Currently using ‘borrowed wifi’. Will reply to your comments asap. Fellow bloggers, I will catch up on…
