Bliss


The beach is beautiful because it never makes you feel lazy for doing absolutely nothing all day long.

I love colors.

New craft supplies are my favorite, especially when I can use them for wedding planning.

San Francisco Sun


All my friends keep moving to San Francisco. Now I understand why.
  1. It's always sunny, but never hot.
  2. There are dogs everywhere.
  3. There are more donut shops than cupcake shops.

Hong Kong

Hong Kong is full of delicious treats. The egg tarts are a must-try snack. They taste like mini quiches with a hint of sugar. But the very best meal I had was a series of toasts topped with condensed milk, butter and peanut butter. No matter what you do, don't leave the city without trying the "Hong Kong french toast," which is essentially a donut shaped like a piece of toast that is drenched in syrup. YUM!

 

Hong Kong is also home to the world's largest, bronze, sitting Buddha. I took a little day trip to visit him, and it was very worth it. You can take the subway to the base of the mountain where you can catch a ride in a glass-bottom cable car to visit the Buddha.  Visiting the statue feels more like going to a theme park rather than a tranquil journey, but it's still fun nonetheless. (There is a Starbucks at the top of the mountain if you get thirsty.)

If you're looking for a low-budget adventure, try visiting Goldfish Street and the pet market.  Here you can browse thousands of colorful fish and even see some super cute kittens.
