After living in Hong Kong for over 8 years, I’ve made it my duty to show visitors why I fell in love with this city. Hong Kong is so dynamic and vibrant with its mix of culture, dining, and nature, but when you add large-scale events like Art Basel, Hong Kong Sevens rugby tournament, and …
What better way to celebrate almost 3 months of parenthood than a well-deserved beach holiday at the Shangri-La Mactan in Cebu? Since our baby girl’s name Reyna means queen in Tagalog, it only made sense to make the Philippines her first travel destination. Cebu is the perfect place to start, as this popular destination in …
As a Hong Kong resident for over 8 years, I’ve now been to Macao over a dozen times. It’s become a must whenever we have visitors in town for the first time or if there’s a big event or concert (seeing Celine Dion live there is forever a highlight!). With a rich history influenced by …
I have a confession: it wasn’t until I booked a trip to Sapporo for a snowboarding trip back in 2019 that I realized that Sapporo Beer was named after a real place, specifically the capital city of Japan’s northernmost Hokkaido prefecture.

Even if you’re not pregnant, there is so much to see and do, so keep reading to see how …
We just finished the first half of our babymoon in Bali, and had an absolutely blissful stay at Maya Ubud Resort and Spa. This expansive luxury resort in Ubud, Bali is tucked in the middle of the jungle but located just 10-15 minutes from the main part of Ubud town, making it an excellent choice …
If there’s a food I’ve been craving the most this entire pregnancy, it’s sandwiches. I think I’ve already eaten more sandwiches in this 5 month period than I have for the entirety of last year, from pastrami to grilled cheeses 😂 And if there’s one sandwich I’ve been CRAVING but haven’t been able to enjoy …
The charming seaside town of Sai Kung offers Hong Kong’s best hiking and nature activities, which are sure to kick up an appetite. Luckily, it’s also filled with excellent eateries, including its own seafood street, bakeries, and more. So here are my favorite places to grab a bite in the “backyard of Hong Kong.” Sai …
