In 6th grade, there was an annual camping trip that the class would go to. I was super excited about going. Sleeping bags! Wilderness! Away from my parents and my little brother! That excitement was shattered when my parents said no. My 10 year old littke heart was competely shattered and did not understand why … Continue reading Camp-er Life

Road Trippin’ Series: Wine and Waterfalls!
Road trip to the North of the border. *cues Game of Thrones music* CANADA! I was super nervous driving to Canada this time around. Maybe... because the last attempt... I ended up with spending 1 hour in Canadian customs at 4 am after driving 8 hours to have the customs officers interrogate you about possible … Continue reading Road Trippin’ Series: Wine and Waterfalls!

It was full of Cuban culture, cobblestone roads, and the food was really good. Okay, if you have been reading my blogs on Cuba, I haven't really … Continue reading Trinidad, Cuba
Cienfuegos, Cuba

Relatively walkable and small city, it was entirely different coming from Havana. Cienfuegos was beautiful and relaxing. Like super relaxing and super chill. The hustle and bustle of … Continue reading Cienfuegos, Cuba
Havana, Cuba
Classic cars! Mojitos! Ernest Hemmingway! Daiquiris! Havana Nights! Salsa! Live Music! Havana is everything I imagined it to be. As soon as I stepped out of the airport, it felt something like a Miami Vice movie. After the excitement of stepping into the 1950s, Havana is like every other city. Every city there is the … Continue reading Havana, Cuba

When President Obama lifted the traveling restrictions to Cuba for US citizens, I needed to go!! Especially before Starbucks and McDonald's take over and "Americanized" it. Sad but true. Overall my experience of Cuba was great. It felt like I went back in time. From the city to even the countryside. It is … Continue reading Cuba!
The AMAZING Race to Boracay
If I was part of "The Amazing Race" cast and if was anything like the journey getting Boracay that I had, I am good. I don’t need that in my life. It could be because I didn't take a “real” rest breaks coming from the United States to Southeast Asia. It could be the 20 … Continue reading The AMAZING Race to Boracay
