Whine A Little but Be Thankful

I just had one of the longest weeks in my life moving from Florida to Oklahoma City, where I had my first car accident in just after 2 days after moving here and the first one ever since I moved to US, California about 2 years ago. The same morning the accident happened we were driving...

4 Days in D.C. (and around)

I used to wonder how big United States really is, although it appears that the cultural diversity amazes me more. I came from Indonesia where there are vast diversity in ethnicity, religion and cultural yet we became one. I've been to several States and I couldn't say the same, at least not until I visited...

It was Christmas Eve. We decided to have a wonderfully cold Christmas Eve under the Rockefeller Christmas Tree, watching ice skaters twirls around the rink.

The Journey for Food in Vegas

Buffet. Buffet. Buffet. Every hotel has a buffet or two, each with different selection of menu, taste, and class. I tried The Buffet at Wynn Hotel on my first night in Vegas. It was said to be the best buffet on the Strip according to several website and travel books. I would say they have...

The Essence of Las Vegas: Casino, Clubs, Strippers ;)

Most people went to Vegas to gamble. I went on a mission to explore the city, the food, and of course, to gamble. I set a maximum amount of money I'm willing to spent at gambling, which is at $100. It was a well-spent money for we had lots of fun on those Slot Machines...

Seoul, My True Food Paradise

It was late winter. Finding a place to eat in Seoul, South Korea, could be challenging for foreigners. Most diners only use Hangul (Korean traditional alphabet) for sign boards, let alone food stalls by the street. I was frustrated because I have planned where to eat based on Lonely Planet guide (Even when the diners...
