Things To See and Do in Pier 2 Art Center, Kaohsiung
Taiwan’s largest port city, Kaohsiung, is gradually gaining popularity among tourists. But time seems to move more slowly here, especially if it’s your second stop after coming from the busy capital of Taipei. I picked a hotel in Pier 2, where the neighborhood felt eerily quiet. It was only on day 2 of my solo […]

An Ode to Cali’s Pink Box Doughnuts
Filipinos, whenever you travel to California, what tops your bucket list? While I love Disneyland, Universal Studios, and the outlet shops like every other Pinoy with a cut-out of someone’s foot in their wallet, there’s one thing I look forward to the most in NorCal and SoCal—the pink doughnut box. @replikate How do I love […]

Jamboo Café is marketed as the first customized lei cha (traditional Chinese rice dish) concept store in Malaysia, but in the social media world, it’s KL’s famous hole-in-the-wall café, where you order, pay, and get your […]
My First Egg Coffee in Hanoi, Vietnam
Found on almost every traveler’s “must eat/drink” list in Vietnam is the egg coffee. I’ve been a fan of the slowly-prepared Vietnamese drip coffee ever since the early aughts when I was a newbie coffee enthusiast, but I had never tried egg coffee until my first trip to Hanoi last month. 🇻🇳 Get Ready For […]
