Taiwan Touch Your Heart~

Image
I went to Taiwan last October for my vacation this year, it's tiring but worth it! =) I think I was able to experience the best places in Taiwan in my short trip. Too bad we got too little time for shopping that we didn't get to enjoy everything they have to offer in the night market. Day 1 - Upon arrival at Taoyuan airport, we had lunch at the train station while waiting for our train to Hualien. I think we got to Hualien after more or less 3 hours in the train and went straight to our hotel to rest for a while. When our bus arrived, we went to dinner and watched a cultural show of Taiwan Aborigines . It's not so special to me since we get to watch shows like that in my country but a cute boy performer sure makes a difference, LOL! XD Day 2 - Our destination is the Taroko Gorge . It took us another 2 hours I think to get there by bus. But the scenery before us sure made the trip worth it! It's a beautiful work of nature that I'm sure all nature lovers would

Baguio City ^^

Baguio City is in the northern part of the Philippines. It's called the Summer Capital of the Philippines because it's situated in higher lands that made the climate there a bit colder than other parts of the Philippines, which made people visit the city in summer when they can't handle the heat in Manila anymore. We drove from Manila to Baguio for about 6 hours, but don't fret because they have planes going to baguio too which will only take you around 45 minutes to get there. =) We spent 3 days and 2 nights visiting the places and though we didn't get to visit all Baguio has to offer, it's a very nice visit nonetheless. ^^ First we looked for a hotel, we didn't book in advance because we want to make sure the hotel will have enough parking space for our car. We first visited SM Baguio for it's view deck where you can see the most of the city with cool air blowing on your face. Then went to the market place where we bought some fresh fruits and veget

Singapore - Food Trip ~

Image
It's my 2nd visit to Singapore. The 1st was when we took the cruise , Singapore is the boarding point. I was able to visit the tourist spots that time already like the Merlion, Sentosa, and Night Safari. So this time, it's not the places that's my main concern but to visit a friend working there and at the same time to catch the IT Show 2010. I finally got to buy my new baby, my Dell laptop! ^^ I remember this trip for the different kinds of food I've tried there. Singapore is a multiculture country with Chinese, Malays, Indians all living together. There are languages used, English (Singlish), Mandarin, Malay (Bahasa), and Hindi. But I'm not a big fan of Malay and Indian food so I tried Singaporean, Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Filipino foods in Singapore. =D March 11th, my flight to Singapore. I took the afternoon flight so it's dinner time when I arrived in there. My friend fetched me from the airport, we had some onion rings from Burger King and we

Korea - White Christmas~

Image
Yes, I went to South Korea again! I went to Korea in early 2009 and again last December 24-29, 2009. Twice in a year, now you know how I love the place. ^^ For the first time in my life, I had a white Christmas! =) I joined a tour again, this time going with my younger brother and my two girl friends. Day 1 - it's Christmas eve, we arrived in Incheon international airport around 6PM, went straight for dinner. We had a yummy dinner, it's pork bulgogi! ^^ After dinner, we checked in our hotel in Incheon and had a good rest for a busy day the following day. Day 2 - Theme park day, we went to Everland. I'm not really that excited anymore since I've been to Everland before. Just like before, I really enjoyed the Snow Buster! It's where you sled down a man made snow slope, super fun! ^^ Too bad it rained that day after we had lunch so we had to wear rain coats and walk around wet grounds. =S We had dinner in a local restaurant having mushroom hot pot wit
