Shibuya Station | Tokyo, Japan
Shibuya Station is one of the iconic places in Japan. This is where Hachiko’s statue located, it is near the ever busy Shibuya Crossing, it has the Japan’s version of Jumbotron or those giant electronic billboards and it is the home of various street performers. Well, I’m pretty sure that they also have street performers in the other parts of Japan but the feels in … Continue reading Shibuya Station | Tokyo, Japan
C’est la vie
I’ve seen a couple blog posts, blog titles and taglines with C’est la vie on them. At first, I didn’t know the meaning until I asked one of the technician here on site. I feel irritated because I’m living in a French speaking country and I should know all these catchy French phrases. I know the meaning of vie because our camp on site is … Continue reading C’est la vie
Singgles Bar | Baguio City, Philippines
We frequented this bar when I was in the University. We would go here almost every week and/or after a depressing exam. Yep. Instead of locking ourselves and be miserable with whatever the result of the exam will be, we go and drink the night away. It is a Karaoke bar. The karaoke is not private so if you have the guts to sing in … Continue reading Singgles Bar | Baguio City, Philippines
Bento | Japan
One of the fascinating aspects of Japanese food is their presentation. There’s even an art in making sushi. Whoa! Have you seen their bento boxes? It’s just a lunch box but there’s something in the preparation that creates this magical food specimen. Konbini or Convenience stores like Lawson, 7-11, Family Mart are widespread in Japan. Bento boxes are sold in there. Bento boxes are also … Continue reading Bento | Japan
Kung Jeon Korean Palace | Baguio City, Philippines
I always loved ihaw-ihaws and eat-all-you-cans. I was in town for a couple of days in Baguio so I invited my cousin for an eat-all-you-can Korean dinner at the Korean Palace something. I saw numerous pictures on facebook with those traditional Korean outfits. I was scared. Really scared. I thought you should wear the outfit while eating. It’s just optional. To enjoy that Korean ihaw-ihaw … Continue reading Kung Jeon Korean Palace | Baguio City, Philippines
The Kikay Lake | Lake Retba, Senegal
First heard about this Le Lac Rose or The Pink Lake in a 10H flight from Dubai to Dakar. The Flight Attendants of Emirates Airlines are gushing about this one of a kind tourist destination found somewhere in Senegal. I googled this Pink Lake in Dakar and yes it is really pink. This is because of an algae which produces this pinkish pigment for easier absorption of … Continue reading The Kikay Lake | Lake Retba, Senegal
Sambokojin Experience | Philippines
I’ve been to Sambokojin for a couple of times already. First, last December 2013 at their Eastwood Branch and in March 2016 at their SM Megamall branch. For my both dining experience, it was great. There’s a massive selection of uncooked meats for the yakiniku, good amount of cooked Korean/Japanese/Chinese dishes. They also have desserts. Drinks are not included in the eat-all-you-can price before. But … Continue reading Sambokojin Experience | Philippines

Sunday Breakfast FTW | Mana Mine Site, Burkina Faso
My second favorite meal of the week is Sunday breakfast (next to Saturday pizza dinner). Wootwoot! Well, I love my breakfasts. But Sunday breakfast is special. We have croissants! I don’t even know why they only serve croissants on Sundays. It’s a staple bread in French restaurants next to the baguette. Not just that, I can also take time in eating. Normally during work days, … Continue reading Sunday Breakfast FTW | Mana Mine Site, Burkina Faso
Khmer Street Food | Siem Reap, Cambodia
I never really explored Khmer food that much. But during one of my trips at the Old Market, I tried some of their street foods. Well, just a couple. Jackfruit with Sticky Rice. It’s my first time to try this one. I love jackfruit and sticky rice separately. Most asian does. But together, it’s like a match made in heaven. The sweet taste of the … Continue reading Khmer Street Food | Siem Reap, Cambodia
