Los Cabos: On Our Shortlist

J | January 14, 2010

Have you been to Los Cabos? I haven’t!
A few years back, when we were planning our trip to Bermuda, our Dentist kept raving about Cabo San Lucas and that instead of heading to Bermuda we should visit Cabo San Lucas first. Of course, we didn’t follow his recommendation and went ahead with our travel plans.
Now [...]

The Traveler

J | November 6, 2008

When one says they love traveling, they really do travel, no ifs and buts. For how can you say you love traveling if you don’t actually do so? To travel means, you’re actually going places and seeing places you have never been to.
That being said, if you are one of those that frequent my sites, [...]

On A Mission

J | October 25, 2008

We felt we were on a big mission during our last night in Milan. A mission to dine at a Chinese restaurant… that is. We were determined to veer away from Italian restos as we felt it was just too much already. After a couple of blocks of walking from The Chedi where we stayed, [...]

From Italian Foods To…

J | October 24, 2008

Our walking adventure brought us [...]

If it was that easy to re-decorate and change the “bones and integrity” of our home, I would. On our next home (I’m sure, there [...]

Venetian Food Tour

J | October 18, 2008

One of the tours that I booked prior to our Italian holiday was a Venetian Food Tour. Knowing how a “foodie” my husband is, I knew he will surely love the idea that we are joining this tour. Not exactly a cheap tour as we paid $120 each.
On our last night in Venice, we joined [...]

Venetian Goodies

J | October 17, 2008

One day while walking around the streets of Venice, my lens captured these:

These are mushrooms of different varieties. Check out the prices.

I didn’t have the guts to ask the prices of these veggies. Do you see the squash blossoms? I wish it is available too in my nearby farmer’s market. Of the almost 10 years [...]
