Where We Stayed in Phnom Penh: Circuit Hotel Review

Where We Stayed in Phnom Penh: Circuit Hotel Review My Phnom Penh trip last February was planned with my mom. It has became sort-of a tradition now to spend a few days strictly with her since she started working overseas again. In Christmas 2009, we met up in Hong Kong since she was staying near the Hong Kong border at Guangzhou, China. But since then, she moved to Cambodia and now Vietnam, so we planned our trip on that side of the world. The hotel on the...

Phnom Penh Shopping: Where to Shop and What to Buy in Phnom Penh Cambodia

Phnom Penh Shopping: Where to Shop and What to Buy in Phnom Penh Cambodia And a Lesson on How to Spot Branded Clothing I was fortunate enough to be with my mom on my visit to Phnom Penh last February. She lived there for almost a year, so she’s very familiar with the place, street names, places to go and shop. On our 3 days there, we practically divided our time visiting spots and shopping. However, shopping was quite limited then, because it was the Vietnamese/Cambodian...

The Lion King Singapore at Marina Bay Sands Singapore

The Lion King Singapore at Marina Bay Sands Singapore Can’t wait to watch The Lion King! I’ve been aching to watch it ever since I’ve seen videos on YouTube way way back. And now it’s coming to Asia! Not in the Philippines, but close enough. The Lion King is the story of a young lion named Simba and his rise to being the king of Pride Rock. It’s a story of courage, triumph and friendship. Timon and Pumba is probably one of my...

Finally visited Ayala Triangle Park

Finally visited Ayala Triangle Park On my way to Glorietta this morning after my interview, the jeepney I was in passed by the Ayala Triangle Park/Garden and since I’ve been wanting to visit for a while now, I decided to get off and have a stroll. It was a nice day for a stroll except for the hot weather this morning. The garden is not very big, but it is quite clean. There are ample seats and the grass is nice. I was just afraid to...

A Trip to Christchurch

A Trip to Christchurch When I celebrated New year 2010, it never occurred to me that it would be one of the most memorable years of my life, travel-wise. I planned on going to Hong Kong for the nth time, but I never thought this year would lead me to an amazing place I’ve never dreamed of going, New Zealand. Siteseeing at Akaroa Preparations to get there went smoothly. It was such a whirlwind and painless planning to say...

Aberdeen Seafood Restaurant, Jordan, Hong Kong

We discovered Aberdeen Seafood Restaurant on our second visit to Hong Kong when we stayed at City Econo Inn at Jordan. On our first night, we wandered around looking for food and ended up near Temple Street Night Market. We were hesitant at first to eat at an outdoor restaurant, having read some warning against da pai dong in Hong Kong. But the air smelled like heaven, the street well-lit, people crowding...
