Here comes my 6th instalment for the series 10 impressions of Paris. Time flies. I’ve been here for 2 years!!! Do you recognise this landmark? 😉
Highlights of Grand Trianon (winter edition), Versailles Palaces. Is it worth the walk / visit?
La Felicità is perhaps one of the latest excitement in Paris. Highly invested in aesthetic and experience. The production value is so high that it gave me the feeling of entering a theme park. I…
I am a big HK food fan! Curry fish ball, waffle, shui mai, grilled squid, stir fry noodle with sweet sauce, wonton noodle, beef noodle, almond tea… my list rages on :9 yum yum yum. This is a total food porn show down post.
Kyoto, touristic mega town! And this shrine draws even more people. While I work on my blog admin, I realised that I haven’t written anything about Kyoto besides my maiko experience. This place is so…
This place is great for studying, chilling or blogging 🙂 The owner must have gone out of his way to decorate this place. Next to each seat there are miniature models! Toy heaven and a photographer’s playground.
Clue Quest was a live escape room ‘adventure’; aka locked up in a room for 60min. We signed up for the Operation Blacksheep. It was a save the world mission!! That evil professor Blacksheep was trying to take over the world!!! It was up to us to save mankind…
The whole town is themed up to the spooky comedy manga, Gegege no Kitaro (ゲゲゲの鬼太郎). This manga series is a Japanese classic from the 1960s, drawn by Mr Shigeru Mizuki. The story line is based on a collection of Japanese folklore and local superstitions. It essentially gained cult status and hence the crazy town & train line for this manga. Yup, the manga fixtures are all PERMANENT.
The theme runs strong from the moment I set foot onto the Yonago train platform…

That was the 4th trip to Takamatsu, so I didn’t bother to do any research. 20min ferry ride later… Voila, we’re on Megijima 女木島, Island of the Ogres. Er… Where were the vending machines? Where…
This garden is another member of 日本三名園 Nihon Sanmeien, Three Great Gardens of Japan. The other 2 gardens are: Kairakuen of Mito and Kenrokuen of Kanazawa. Unlike my epic weather failed Kairakuen visit, this time, it was…
Let’s do something different and do an airline experience sharing? Nope, this is not a cool first class / business class post. Just plain economy class. Why? I just really enjoyed their food & their value for money surprised me *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 was probably a good thing that I didn’t know about the celebrity status of this restaurant prior to the visit. I had no expectation and knew no hype. It was just a meet up with an old friend. In fact, I suggested let’s do Mc Donald *LOL* I just wanted to hang out.
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.
This was my first Christmas in France!!! Here are 5 things that I’ve observed.
Here is another round of 10 observations that amuses me.
On this beautiful summer’s day, I’ve decided to write about boring admin stuff, namely: how to renew HK passport in Paris. My passport was about to expire (well anything less than 6 months is not…
