Favorite Places and People
When it comes to comfort food, apart from Thai food, it’s always Italian, especially pizza and pasta with tomato sauce. So when I heard that there’s a new Italian restaurant located like 500 meters away from my office, of course I checked it out. Open for less than a month, Nonna Nella by Lenzi was […]
Admittedly, I went to Wanghinghoi with doubts in mind. I heard that the concept was to bring the forest into the city with ‘real fireflies’ in a restaurant, plus an art space! At first it seems to have a little too much of everything in once place, but it turned out just fine. You may […]
An amazing cruise trip in Myanmar with Belmond Road to Mandalay
When it comes to summer, Chiang Mai is not the first choice for most Thais. Located in a basin, the city can be pretty toasted diring summer time. But from my last trip, I realized it wasn’t so bad after all. You just have to know the right place to be. This trip, we stayed […]
I have to admit. As a spa lover, I’m very lucky to be a Thai. In Thailand, we take spa and massage very seriously (as you might know the famous Wat Pho massage) and right now there are more and more local spa brands coming up. Not long ago, I have a chance to try […]
As a color aficionado like me, I always love Missoni. And my personal encounter with the brand was actually at Milan three years ago when I visited their showroon during the Salone del Mobile period. The boutique was turned into a space for colorful installations. It’s like a universe of prints, patterns and colors in […]
Just a rustic 200-meters long flower lane and It could make me tremble with excitement. The flower corner at Honiara’s central market was pure joy. Just walk past the busy fresh market and then you will find it hidden in a corner. I don’t know where these tropical flowers come from. People there don’t plant […]
I can claim that this series of photos are the most colorful images of Narathiwat you have ever seen. Try google Narathiwat and you will know. In Thailand, the Deep South has been considered the gloomiest and the most dangerous place because of the ongoing ‘insurgencies’ for decades. But strangely enough, it was in this […]
Funny how life treats us. In one month, I have been to Hua Hin for 3 times. All for work, two of which were one day trips. Just for this last time that I had a chance to stay over for, like, one night. Personally, Hua Hin is not always my go-to choice. It is […]
Research shows that being near water has some kind of magic to calm you down, but that is not the case for Amphawa. Known for the city of floating markets, the Amphawa river can be called one of the busiest rivers on earth. I went there just ten 10 minutes and I can feel like […]
On the first of October 2017, a random guy with a knife walked into Marseille’s Saint Charles train station and stabbed two women to death. The attacker was later shot by French soldiers. He died on the spot. That was two weeks before my trip to Marseille. I didn’t know about this incident at all, […]
Entering the Zero Decibel exhibition by Suntur, a pair of earplugs was handed out to me. The concept was great enough, enough to prime my perception that from then on, all I hear was silence, even the exhibition space was actually covered by light, melancholic tones of music. I didn’t know Suntur before. I heard […]
