Mimi in Manhattan
Wohooo!! That’s right, I was in NYC for a couple days, most of the time working (business trip), but I had all Saturday and then Sunday morning to wander around NY. The best part, without any hesitation, was being able to meet again with 2 of my best friends from college: Sara and Zi. From… Continue reading Mimi in Manhattan
Shabushi: Shabu shabu + sushi all-you-can-eat
Hey, it’s been a while since my last review, but I just finished my last post about my trip to Thailand, so I’m back for a brief time! I wanted to start with a review of a place I discovered just recently: Shabushi, an all-you-can-eat restaurant with shabu shabu and sushi. This will be a… Continue reading Shabushi: Shabu shabu + sushi all-you-can-eat
A very nice Thanksgiving in Korea
Thanksgiving is a very big celebration in the US, where the whole family usually reunites and enjoys a lot of food and conversation through the day. In Europe, however, it is not a holiday. It is not even commercialized like Halloween, for instance, is. My theory is that it is so close to Christmas, the major… Continue reading A very nice Thanksgiving in Korea
Muay Thai lesson for foreigners and travelers
Final post about Thailand! We’ve done so many things in a week and it took me so long to wrote about our trip!! So today I’m going to keep it really short, a picture is worth a 1000 words anyway 🙂
A roadtrip in the North of Thailand: hotsprings, the King, and Johnny Depp
After a very intense day in Chiang Mai, it was time to chill and enjoy nature. The best way to enjoy Thailand’s national parks and nice scenery is by car, but I wouldn’t recommend doing that without the guide of a local or a long-term visitor. We met in Chiang Mai with one of my childhood… Continue reading A roadtrip in the North of Thailand: hotsprings, the King, and Johnny Depp
Tigers in Chiang Mai: Tiger Kingdom
When I thought of Thailand, the first things that came to my mind were Tigers, Elephants, and Muay Thai. So it was among our plans to experience a bit of each. To see tigers and take pictures next to them, we went to Tiger Kingdom, and to experience Muay Thai, we went to a class in a specialized gym. Both experiences were great because they were really different from other things we did and made the trip more special. Read on to see the pictures! 😀
Charming Chiang Mai
After some days in the bustling city of Bangkok, we were ready for some relax. We had heard Chiang Mai was much smaller and less stressing, and there were some experiences we were really looking forward like the Tiger Kingdom and the Muay Thai class. We arrived to Chiang Mai on a late afternoon and spent… Continue reading Charming Chiang Mai
Bangkok II: Terminal 21, Middle East Street & Phallic Shrine
Bangkok is very hectic and has a lot to offer. While the first few days we experienced the historic part and the backpackers party area, the last days were spent near the city centre were malls are the norm. One very famous hidden place around there is the Phallic shrine, which… as you can tell from the name, has a lot of penis figures all around! Check the post for more quirky details~
Ayutthaya half-day trip from Bangkok and how we avoided being scammed.
During our short stay in Bangkok, we dedicated 1 day to explore the ruins of Ayutthaya. As it was low season, there were not many people around, making it a very unique experience!
