Singapore is awesome! okay, so... ...have I mentioned how thankful we've been for 7-Elevens? I know it may sound lame that we've gone there so many times but it's been a reliable source of water and other necessities. It's weird that they are everywhere, but has been a really nice constant. We went to an… Continue reading 02.22.2018 – Singapore day 2
TODAY is my adventure to get my camera back!!! Long story short: I took a subway all the way to the end of its line, I waited in a lobby anxiously, I got my camera bag back and found that EVERYTHING is still inside (!!!), I treated myself to a delicious dim sum experience that… Continue reading 02.19.2018 – Hong Kong day 8

It's Chinese New Year! The city seems maxed out with people and it's got some crazy energy. I love it. I am thankful to have a cozy bed with a curtain where I can recharge from all the social energy, and it can be overwhelming, but I really do love it too. We spent the… Continue reading 02.16.2018 – Chinese New Year (Hong Kong day 5)

Long story short: we acquainted ourselves with the city today. We are really excited about Hong Kong after what we explored. 🙂 Soup dumplings. Oh my gosh I'm going to eat here so many times.
The day began with our flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Hong Kong. I've developed a head cold and was anxious about flying with my sinuses all plugged up, so I picked up a couple different medicines (which worked well). This is one of them! It might look sketchy but that is only because… Continue reading 02.12.2018 – Hong Kong day 1

(yes, I posted this a month late, sorry) We went on another tour, this time on a very adventurous 12k hike and much more intense cave exploration. I skipped my regular camera altogether. Thank goodness for waterproof phone cases and… Continue reading 02.08.2018 – Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park day 2
