While I often yearn to leave it and travel, it’s also where I’ll always call home! Safe from natural disasters, a passport that gets you most…
Osaka, Japan | 2006 The last time I was in Osaka was way back in 2006 tagging along on the grad trip of 3 friends. Concerned with the language barrier and feeling rather lazy, we ended up on a Chan Brothers tour, which fed us really well, but like all tours, it was a lot…

I can’t believe a year has flown by just like that! When I used to keep a personal blog, I would do a round up at the end of each year, just looking back at what was done, and giving a little thought into plans for the upcoming year. It’s pretty cool to look back…
