Asian Cultural Exchange in Portugal

May 22, 2020May 22, 20201 Comment on Asian Cultural Exchange in Portugal

I went to Lisbon, Portugal twice, solo in April 2019 and with friends in January 2020.

September 10, 2018October 8, 2018Leave a Comment on A Peak Into French Laundry

The French Laundry // Yountville, Napa Valley, CA I've always likened myself to being a foodie, as in I enjoy eating and trying new food from across all cultures, but I've never identified myself as a fine dining aficionado. I did know of Thomas Keller and his world renowned chef status, even if it meant…
