SINGAPOREAN FOOD, GIMME IT ALL.✨ My mom and I vi

SINGAPOREAN FOOD, GIMME IT ALL.✨ My mom and I visited #Singapore 🇸🇬 last year and we stayed with my dad’s best friend’s daughter Celest, who was also our guide to the places we saw and the food we tried.

Food was definitely the highlight of my trip in Singapore along with how impressed I am how clean the country is!!! 😋 My favorite food would have to be the Laksa 🍜 and their fresh squeezed orange juice 🍊 that can be dispensed from a vending machine, it was very tasty and hydrating!

Which item on this list would you try?

…Last Singaporean content for now til we share new abroad places ✨

The 📍 National Gallery Singapore @nationalgalle

The 📍 National Gallery Singapore @nationalgallerysingapore is probably one of the best museums in Asia to see some modern Southeast Asian art. 🖼️ 🇸🇬

With having Southeast Asian descent (Filipino), I really got to appreciate the paintings and other art work that were displayed there through its exhibitions. Its aim is to be a progressive museum and it does so through collaborative research and education.

The history of this museum building is interesting too: it is located within former Supreme Court and City Hall buildings since the Supreme Court moved to a different building.

I had booked my flight with @flyscoot and got 50% off my admission here!! (Fun tip)

🌿If you’re looking to view wildlife🦅 in 📍 #Ketchikan, #Alaska…take a tour with Ketchitour LLC (@grandtrolley.ketchitour). They will take you to some spots that locals only know about and to this one at a bridge where you can get a good glimpse of the wildlife that thrives in Alaska.

Save this for your reference if you’re planning a trip or your Alaskan cruise for the future!

And you can read my “29 Best Things to Do in Southeast Alaska” blog post on my site to get more details and ideas on your travels.

…And that concludes for now my Alaska content (for now) until we cover to the next destination 😊

I love fall time in Arizona!! (Yep…we do have different sceneries and leaf changes for those who hadn’t visited far in AZ yet!) The tree changing colors aren’t the only exciting things, but the fresh cool air in elevation and the smell of the trees makes you want to just grab some hot cocoa after exploring and wear your warmest sweaters.

🍁🌲Places You Must Visit this Fall in Arizona - Save this for your reference!🌲🍁

Pics 1 & 2: Hike in West Fork of Oak Creek Trail
3 & 4: Hike and take pics in Aspen Corner

Such a memorable weekend to start off autumn this

Such a memorable weekend to start off autumn this year⛰️🍁🏕️ Spending time with hundreds of people in my church in Parks, Arizona or “in the pines” two weeks ago felt like a spiritual retreat. With great food, lots of laughs, tons of bonfires, fun dance parties, and oh my, that view and the open meadows that look like ocean waves as they sway with the wind were unforgettable.

Also it was my first time #carcamping in my midsize SUV☺️ I wrote up a guide on my blog site “Car Camping for Beginners: First-Time Car Camping Tips”.

🏃🏻‍♀️ Ever thought about doing an obstacle course race? Do it!! Here are 5 simple reasons why. Find one locally and then share this with a friend to bring along! 🎀

@mudgirlrun Obstacle Race: This was so fun🤩 navigating around 17ish obstacles and being drenched in lots, lots of mud. Thanks to my girl Becky for encouraging us to go for it. Definitely had a lot of battle wounds from my knees to my one weak fingernail bleeding a lot lol to the dust irritating my lungs. But it’s ok because we survived💪🏼

The #Titanic: Artifact Exhibition @titanictheexhib

The #Titanic: Artifact Exhibition @titanictheexhibition in 📍Las Vegas and @luxorlv is one of the best museums I’ve been to in my life. It features sooo many real artifacts recovered from the ship 🚢 and you learn so much from walking through their exhibit. It’s so worth the visit and my mom and I loved it!

You’ll learn stories of some of their passengers, learn about the passenger from the ticket you are given, what it was like to be a first, second, and third class passenger, the events leading up to the iceberg hit, and so much more. With some of their amazing recreated rooms, you’ll feel like a passenger of the ship yourself.

And you’ll get real up close to their biggest artifact as well as some valuable artifacts and you’ll be taken back to historical time with seeing what some of their passengers carried through that ship.

Would you go here?

I’d put an aurora on this list but I hadn’t seen that yet! Hopefully soon one day!! ✨I’ve seen some really cool things so far though on some of my travels and I am so impressed by how this earth has so many amazing phenomena. This planet continues to amaze me and that’s why I fell in love with the idea of writing about it, making plans to explore places to feed my curiosity on interesting geology, and just getting outside to get my mind off technology.

I would’ve also put seeing a meteor crater mark on here, the Milky Way, and the Solar eclipse but the list was long already.

What phenomena have you seen on your travels?

Happy 1st Day of Fall y’all 🍁 Did you know t

Happy 1st Day of Fall y’all 🍁

Did you know there was a thing called “divorce ranches” back in the day?! Divorce ranches were known in #LasVegas for people who were seeking divorces by establishing a six-week residency. There, people also got to enjoy life with swimming, fishing, horseback riding, walking around and getting fresh air. Not a bad place to get your mind off stuff for a bit from your usual home I guess.

This park 📍 Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs used to be a divorce ranch (and a cattle ranch). Now, it is a public city park. It’s definitely worth checking out for its historic buildings and cute ranch homes and to get some fresh air by the freshwater fishing lakes.

Although this video was taken back in April, it’s always nice to visit the park all year round and it gets better during this time of the year with these trees changing colors (into orange leaves).

My family came to visit and we stayed at this gorg

My family came to visit and we stayed at this gorgeous midcentury modern #Airbnb! Having stayed in many Airbnbs over the years, this, picked out by my sister, was one of my favorite ones that made me feel super homey and it’s family-friendly with 3 bedrooms. I loved every detail and piece displayed here since this is my favorite style of interior design and you can tell the hosts put so much tender love and care and were meticulous to putting this place together, as a home built in the 1970s. The stunning art displayed here added to it too!!

Blog post on this home for more details, more of my review, and where to explore around here can be found on my blog site👍🏼

A year ago, I didn’t think the worst day of my l

A year ago, I didn’t think the worst day of my life would come. My father, who was my bestest friend, unexpectedly lost his life last summer on our vacation in the Philippines. Grief was something I thought of every day since this year in 2023. But I decided to not let it define me. It isn’t who I am, just a part of my life story.

Any grief or the losses we experience in life: the heartbreaks, the rejections, the life changes, saying goodbye to things that used to mean a significant part of our lives, and that feeling a personal quality of ourselves no longer resonates to present time, are all part of experiencing in this life. This life is meant to be traumatic and full of oppositions but it doesn’t mean we have to let it stop us from still going towards the peace and things we are destined for. It doesn’t mean we need to count ourselves lost after or give up on ourselves.

We can find ourselves through so many new beginnings and so many opportunities in life like the numerous adventures we can join in or the things we never got to do before but want to boldly take on. That is where you’ll carry grief and can put it into its place. I have no regrets of how my life has played out in the last few years with moving new homes, stepping out of my comfort zone, losing undeserving friendships, relationships, going into therapy to address and process things, being apart of new exciting communities, writing out my heart, learning lessons about life, and facing new realities. Even when it’s so hard to accept all those that happened because many of those were extremely painful. But listen, I did find those bright days ahead in between all that.

And for you, I know you will feel the same. You feel like you’ve survived many storms and sleepless nights, but here you are, still here. You always got this, strong warrior child 🫶🏼🌞

Gotta check out the ⚡️Wizarding World of Harry

Gotta check out the ⚡️Wizarding World of Harry Potter⚡️ if you’re visiting Universal Studios Hollywood! One of my favorite attractions of the park.

There’s two interactive rides there and a bunch of shops that you will recognize if you watched #HarryPotter!

I was a big fan of Harry Potter as I was growing up from reading the books to buying the legos to following up on Mugglenet and roleplaying it on one of my favorite virtual MMO games as a teen. I got the house of Hufflepuff but at heart, I’m in the house of Gryffindor haha. My favorite character is Hermione and til this day, I admire her.

So far this year has showed me I have so much heal

So far this year has showed me I have so much healing to do around my loss, so much healing in myself, and what it takes sometimes is to just get outside, breathe, and look around you: God has never given up on you. Nothing was meant to give up on you, you can find yourself again. You can have things like you had them.

Especially if you’re taken to places that feel like being on a different planet.

I loved this place so much, the sand dunes are so beautiful to explore! Did you know we drove a day from Arizona into #California to get here? This is located in the Algodones Dunes, the entire geographic feature. They also filmed Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and other movies here!

📍Imperial Sand Dunes (sometimes called the Glamis Dunes)
