San Francisco & Napa Valley

It was a gruesome 13-hour roadtrip from Los Angeles to San Francisco so we left early morning. We drove along the beautiful Pacific Highway from Los Angeles and passed by the beautiful town of Santa Barbara.

The Naked & Famous in Las Vegas

Sunday, December 15, 2013 Las Vegas, NV, USA


Before going to the States, I was already searching for my favorite bands and their shows that might fit our schedule while we’re there. I found out of all the bands I searched including Noah & The Whale, The 1975, Paramore, and Panic! At The Disco, but The Naked & Famous was the one that fit our schedule.

The roadtrip to Vegas was almost as bad as the flight from Manila to LA, so fricking long. Thankfully we passed by outlet stores on the way and bought clothes!!!

Overlooking the City of Angels from the Griffith Observatory

It was some time in October when we left for the States. We arrived in Los Angeles after an almost 13-hour flight so you could imagine the pain in the ass for sitting that long. But yeah, hello America!

Snowday at the Imperial Tombs & the Great Wall

Monday, April 1, 2013 Beijing, China


You ever had one of those days when you wake up to something completely unexpected? This was one of mine. It was in the middle of winter when we went to Beijing and it was extremely cold (5 layers of clothing, still freaking cold), but we didn’t expect snow! It was our very first snow experience, hahaha!
