February 2018

Any reason to go to Hong Kong is good enough for me. While I may not be Chinese, Chinese New Year in Hong Kong is a great cultural experience to witness.

Note: Do not go just for the fireworks, as the weather may likely be cloudy and rainy to dampen the celebration, or in the case of 2018 simply canceled.

Here were the articles from Hong Kong:

Things to Do in Hong Kong this Chinese New Year Weekend

2 Nights & 3 Days in Hong Kong: A Detailed Itinerary for First-Time Visitors

Authentic Napoletana Pizza at Ciao Chow Italian Cafeteria in Hong Kong

Three Monkeys: Japanese Izakaya in Hong Kong 

 

March 2018

Springtime brought me back to the San Francisco Bay Area – a place I called home for 18 years. Trips back these days include nostalgic get-togethers and tourist days/weekend getaways.

Here were the articles from the Bay Area:

22 Oyster Happy Hour Deals in San Francisco for Every Day of the Week
