Our snowventure and our new resolution

Last month we made a rush out to the mountains to take our Christmas photos. Along the way, we decided to do something we’ve rarely done… set up our tripod. Backstory: Browsing through countless photography blogs with hundreds of couples and their memories captured has made us truly envious. Because of this, with this new [...]

Universal Studios Hollywood

We were able to enjoy a fun afternoon at Universal Studios a few months back so I thought I would post up a few of the pics and thank the thoughtful man in my life who still finds the time to romance me so nauseatingly sweetly. It was my first time at Universal Studios and [...]

Road trip: Napa Valley

Even though I’m not a big wine lover, I’ve always wanted to go to Napa Valley (yay, I can now scratch it off my bucket list) and of course it was as lovely as I’d imagined it to be…never-ending stretches of budding grapes and each winery more interesting than the next. While there we were [...]

Road trip: San Francisco

We’re on a road trip to the Pacific Northwest and hope to share it with all of you! Our first stop? Good old San Francisco. The city reminds me of Chicago… only with a gazillion more bridges and tolls. =p The weather tried its best to ruin our day, but luckily it cleared up just [...]

Portland Asian gardens visit

Last month I was in the Portland area visiting family. In between the rainy days, we found time to visit the Portland Chinese Garden and Japanese Garden. Although the Chinese garden was smaller than expected, it was still rich with beautiful artifacts and very full of culture. The volunteer tour guide was very knowledgeable and [...]

The beautiful city night scape greeted us when we arrived in Shanghai and to top that off we were fortunate enough to have stayed with Mr. and Mrs. cool =) who had the most spectacular view from their balcony. Our first day there we walked around and discovered the city sights and smells…we agreed, “If [...]

another adventure…Dansui Fisherman’s wharf

Here’s a visual walkthrough of our new routine. It starts from breakfast in the hotel lobby, full body massage from their hi-tech cocoon massage chair… off to the subway… then to our new destination of choice. Today, we explored the National Palace Museum of Taiwan and was able to view at a lot of beautiful [...]

City life in Taipei

We explored an outskirt town the other day, so this time we checked out the downtown city life. One thing we noticed right away… there are a lot of scooters, and a lot of 7-elevens mini marts. Here are some pics.
