Sekhmet Temple

Black Sand Beach Langkawi
The main reason I went to Black Sand beach in Langkawi island on my visit there was the mythical legends that haunts the famous beach. It was a recommendation from the hotel staffs, but I was not really wow-ed by it.
Despite the legends that said the beach was black …
Paramount Canada’s Wonderland travel
I’ve been to Wonderland countless times before and each time is a spectacular experience. They sometimes host concerts for famous asian singers such as ‘Janice’ or ‘Ella Koon’. I have to admit it is difficult to get seats at such an event without coming 3 hours ahead of time. …

The Penguin Plunge Jamestown RI
On January 1st at exactly 12 Noon, there is no place I’d rather be than at Mackerel Cove in Jamestown, RI to witness hundreds of people jump into the icy cold waters of Narragansett Bay. They come in swimsuits, some bikinis and some with bow ties and top …

Great Yarmouth
Great Yarmouth is a little coastal town in East Anglia which claims the title of “one of England’s most popular sea-resorts”. I have had a misfortunate experience of putting this description to the test. I can’t say I’m satisfied with the results.
First of all I’d like to begin with …
Whitehaven Beach Boat Tour

Thai’s Local Transportation Mode

Beijing Metro
An advocate of public transportation, I happened to be in Beijing and decided to stray away from the common medium of taxi riding and try the metro.
Everytime you’re in a new city, you should definitely try the metro system out, if it’s available. The metro in Beijing was …
Burnaby Lake in British Columbia, Canada
This is one of many natural parks in British Columbia, which is unspoiled by man. Ironically, this site was littered with sawmills at one time!

Trip to Tachileik, Myanmar

Spain Cathedral of Seville
I used to visit a lot of churches before especially when I was in Europe but not anymore. But, since I was visiting Sevilla in the Andalusia province of Spain, I thought I should revive my Catholic upbringing once more.
This Gothic cathedral was certainly impressive. It was also just …
