Destination Unknown

"There are places I remember... in my life, I've loved them all." I believe traveling is the best experience anyone can do in order to expand their knowledge on the world. I hope to inspire and urge people to take my advice – leave your comfort zone and EXPLORE.

If I had all the money in the world..

cynthiamon:

If I had all the money in the world, I’d spend it on fancy dining with friends and family. If I had all the money in the world, I’d build a home that looked like a Snow White cottage, create rooms the size of Marie Antoinette’s bedroom rococo style, a tea room decked out in rococo and drink my coffee, scones, macaroons, cupcakes, and chocolate chip cookies all day. I’d invite my dear hearts, show them around my crib, and discuss books and poetry.
If I had all the money in the world, I’d demolish a room, and turn it into a library. If i had all the money in the world, I’d make a worldwide search for the perfect espresso and purchase bags of coffee beans to try for the rest of my days. If I had all the money in the world, I’d purchase a Mason and Hamlin piano. I’d make a piano room where I could entertain guests, drink champagne, and sing them songs so that they may all be merry. If I had all the money in the world, I’d travel around the world, and lend a helping hand to build houses, build schools, and study the culture behind every city I encounter. If I had all the money in the world, I’d seek further spiritual enlightenment to help me answer life’s puzzling questions. I’d seek the Dalai Lama, meditate with him, and follow in his footsteps for a day in order to understand the meaning of life, at least, how he may interpret it. If I had all the money in the world, I’d waste it on education, expanding further knowledge on the world around me, cultivate my curiosity, and expand my mind for further observation. My mind would do all these things you see. It would have all the money in the world to answer my questions, to help me see things, to help me understand my encounters, my hopes, my dreams, and most of all, fulfill every moment of my hearts’ desire.

Lagging it

I know, I’ve been lagging my posts and everything lately. All I have to count on is my instagram photos. I promise I’ll talk more about where I’ve been in detail and edit my pictures so that each pictures has a story. Stay tuned!

Worm’s eye view (Taken with instagram)
Taken post-Portland Art Museum excavation. Every time I pass by these old buildings, it further inspires me to make it to a big city one day. Big city, big dreams.  I think old architecture will always urge me to keep going, keep exploring, keep moving ahead and create a new atmosphere despite my set backs. Look at the world around you. Look at the places you take for granted even if it’s not a great area. You won’t know what the place is worth until you stop and look around. You won’t be disappointed. I promise you.

Ice creaaaam (Taken with Instagram at Salt and Straw)
Their bountiful flavors and home made-like ice cream must brought a tingle upon my taste buds. Crystal and I stumbled upon this place (yet again) and decided to have their ever so famous ice cream. This place has people circling around the building! It’s that damn good. Alberta Street is the place where it resides. It blends in with their funky restaurants and one dollar or less doughnut location. Plus, this place has the most deeelicious macaroons. Ice cream is always good, who doesn’t like ice cream? If you don’t then don’t read this. If you already did, well, I don’t know what to say. This place is the bomb.
