Traveling with a group of friends with similar hobbies and interests is absolutely important to avoid conflicts – glad I had these travel buddies in my life! We love hiking and we appreciate nature. This time, we decided to hit Norway to experience the ultimate nature and adventure excursion. After we landed in Stavanger, we…
What would be your last meal on earth? One of my dearest friends lives in New York City and when I get a chance, I would do a quick layover to visit her while I fly over to the east coast or Europe. She knows me well and she would always set aside at least…
I started following this talented chef Thuy Pham @The Little Viet Kitchen in London on Instagram for a while and never thought I would actually go to her restaurant as the primary purpose of our trip. Yes, we flew all the way to London from the other side of the world to try out her…
It literally took me 5 minutes to make the decision to join my friends to climb Mt Fuji. Mt Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan reaching a height of 3,776 meters. This is a once in a lifetime experience conquering one of the most iconic mountains. Mt Fuji opens to hikers from July 1…
My little sister is my best travel buddy as we share the same passion for travel, food and cultures. If it wasn’t because of my sister, I would have never thought of visiting Malta.

My sister highly recommended a trip to Vietnam from her past experience and I was intrigued. Going to Ho Chi Minh with my girlfriends is the best way to do it. We all appreciate food, beer, wine, spa, and shopping, just not so much the heat. First stop, we went to the famous Ben Thanh…
I have come to develop a deep love for Vietnamese food and a certain affection for their culture. Vietnam is always a city that I want to visit and why not begin this journey in Ho Chi Minh. To be honest, I was really looking forward to having an authentic great bowl of pho, but…
In the past 10+ years, I have the pleasure to travel to Montreal at least once a quarter on business. I love this city, I love the people, it’s like my second home. Montreal is a multicultural city with a deep food culture – from smoke meat (Schwartz’s Deli, Dunn’s, Rueben’s), poutine (Poutineville, practically everywhere…
Florence is one of the most inspiring, extraordinary cities I have visited. I was partly inspired by Giada De Laurentiis (with her show Giada in Italy). And because this is a solo trip, I immediately think of Airbnb Experiences and Viator signing myself up for a wide range of activities. I am sure everyone expect…
