Food’s GREAT!  I love Sichuan food!  麻辣麻辣麻辣！！

Haven’t blogged for so long because my boss went on a 2-week Japan holiday.  Nearly died trying to cover all the deals that seemed to flood in.  The minute my boss came back, I took leave to just nua.  After that, I got busy preparing for my own Japan trip.  Hehehe.  Here’s what I did… [...]

Realised I never got down to posting about my Manila trip this year.  This is very likely to be my last business trip to Manila as I will be handing the 2 Filipino accounts I handle over to another unit within my company.  Yeap.  双手奉上.  I’m not going into the details since I have photos [...]

Jiufen’s an old mining town with lots of shops selling local specialties & tea houses.     To get to Jiufen, we took the MRT to Taipei Main Station, then changed to an express train to Ruifang.     Here’s a pic of the train station at Ruifang.   You can get lots of snacks [...]

Went to HK for a quick weekend trip with Azure and we really fleshed out the HK Tourism Board ad – Eat, Shop, Eat, Shop, Eat Shop.  I was so focused on the above I didn’t even bring a digicam.  Haha.  Figured if I needed to take any really good photos, I could always get [...]

Pelican Bay Hotel – Our beautiful hotel room in Mykonos     View from the balcony of the hotel room     Apart from opening the usual way, the doors & windows could also be tipped open for ventilation!  I thought it was so cool!   Left: Picture of our hotel room from the outside [...]
