it’s day 3 in tokyo and we’re ready to do some serious… shopping! there’s no better place to do this than trendy shibuya. besides shopping malls and departmental stores, the walkways and alleys here are packed with numerous fashion shops. you can practically shop ’til you drop [...]

xanthe and i had never been to disneyland in our lives. now that we were in tokyo, we knew we just HAD to go there! to me this is one of those must-visit places before i die! we woke up early in the morning and made our way to shinjuku station. over there we lost our way for a little bit before eventually boarding the correct bus to disneyland! [...]

our flight to tokyo was at 8:30 in the morning! to be in time to check in at 6 or 7ish, we would have to wake up at 5am. that is, like, freakin’ early! so, i came up with the brilliant idea of going to the airport the night before and spending the night there instead! [...]

hey people, i am back from my 11-day holiday in japan!
it had been an immensely memorable experience and i had lots of fun, booze, shopping and sightseeing!
right now i’m physically and mentally exhausted! but i do have tons of pictures, videos and experiences to blog about. hopefully from tomorrow onwards, i would be able to [...]

it was night time when we arrived in dallas, and early morning when we left. i dozed off after all, despite having tried to stay awake the entire night. overslept, after sleeping for a grand total of two hours. so from then on it was a mad rush to the airport to get everything checked in [...]

it was our last day in dallas, and my most favorite day of the entire trip. firstly, it was the day that we wrapped up work. secondly, we got to do some sightseeing! damn, some touristy stuff finally! dallas is the city where john f. kennedy was assassinated [...]

it was rather tiring after spending most of the day working. this was a business trip after all so there wasn’t much time to go sight-seeing. we were in the car pretty much most of the time which explains why my pictures are mostly of food and shopping, and rarely of the unique buildings and sights. america is clearly a country that’s designed for driving. it looks as though everyone owns a car and [...]

most of the day was spent working, as it would be for the next couple of days as well. when we finally took a breather, it was at a nice tex-mex restaurant. ahhh… mexican food again! i didn’t mind one bit. it was fun learning about the various terms used in mexican food [...]

hard rock cafe. that was the goal of the day. the place seems to have lost its appeal in recent years, but it still excites me! it was a good thing we dropped by. the atmosphere was fabulous for chilling out, with great music and superb decor [...]

our first morning in dallas started off with breakfast at the hotel. i made waffles using their waffle making machine! the waffles turned out to be so awesome they became my daily staple in dallas. if i hadn’t grown fat from all the food i would have bought a waffle maker the minute [...]
