The Quad Bike Adventure

Never EVER leave Siem Reap without experiencing the Quad Bike Adventure. This is one of the tour highlights that you cannot afford to miss.

Quad Adventure Cambodia is owned by a French guy who got married to a...

Meaningless! Meaningless!

One day. I went to the Chinese Consulate at 7:00 am and lined myself up to get my priority number. The guard allowed us to enter the visa application room at 08:00 am but they will start receiving the application at 09:00. I held "60" as my number  and right at 11:30am, the number which was called was 38. Tired of waiting, I went out of that...

It is situated at the dividing line of Europe and Asia, and bounded by Russia to the North, Turkey and Armenia to the South,  Azerbaijan to the  Southeast and Black Sea to the west.

Cambodia to Vietnam by Bus

Ho Chi Minh (formerly known as Saigon) can be reached by air, by bus or by boat. I wanted to travel by boat but the water level was low as that was dry season, so this service was temporarily closed.  I was left without no other option  but to take the bus.  With the help of the hotel staff, they had me...

When the Waiting is Whining

By the well at Hatta Heritage Village UAE Waiting is a constant part in our daily lives. Waiting sometimes involves short time and mostly, long time. Every action includes series of waiting, would it be waiting for the bus to arrive,  waiting for the metro, waiting in line, waiting for an exam result, waiting for our food to be served, waiting for our...

From Thailand to Cambodia by Land

Back in 2012, I decided  to take my travel to a whole new level. Since I intended to visit my friends in Bangkok, I opted to visit its neighboring countries after.

God Created Dusk to Give Way to the Dawn

 Taken at the Fish Market, Dubai UAE. Credits to my brother, Makoi. Hundreds in numbers are our complaints, but God's provisions are thousands.  It was unbeknown to us that we  fail to recognize the work of God in every situation that we are having. We are so focused on the things that we don’t have and they all lead to...

Cadenas d’Amour

Photo taken at Busan Tower, South Korea Last year, when I went to Korea and visited some of the tourist spots, I have seen a lot of these hearts around.  Koreans are very warm and expressive, no wonder you will see  lovers wearing couple jacket, couple shoes, couple jeans, couple necklace, couple shirts, couple rings, and so on when you...
