A New Year and Traveling to Europe

This wraps up my 2018 adventures. I got so busy and was living life that I didnt have time to upload all the adventures until now, so thanks for getting through that with me. Life has changed A LOT over the last year. More than it ever has before. and way more so than I showed you in these 2018 posts. It was a good year of change that I am happy to say hello to. 

However, its 2019 now and I have a whole lot of goals and ideas that I hope to accomplish this year. I plan to make a “life update” video and upload it to my youtube channelto go over all the crazy and exciting changes that happened in 2018 and my big plans for 2019. So if you haven subscribed make sure you do! I am going to be focusing a lot on youtube this year by making a lot of travel and lifestyle videos and content.

Also make sure you follow along on here and on my instagram (where I am most active) because I am leaving next week for Europe for 2 and a half months!!! I am so excited I can barely contain myself! So over the next few days expect to see posts preparing for this long trip!

Some of the countries I am visiting… (are subject to change)

  • Sweden
  • Norway
  • France
  • Germany
  • Austria (maybe)

I need your help. I’m going to drop the price of the journal on my Etsy! It’s a hand painted picture of Frida Kahlo in oil paints on a Moleskine Ruled Journal.


How much should it cost?


Message me! Let me know!

I went to Japan for the month of January to study film. It had always been a life long dream of mine to go and I had a profoundly amazing experience. I miss it dearly. Here were some fast watercolors I did while over there.

Location: Al Bastakiya, Dubai, UAE

Me and my colleagues visited this place called Al Bastakiya. It’s  a historical district in Dubai. We went to this little store which sells local spices and products. (I got my mom a cutie camel, btw. :P)

and I brought my travel buddy Dan board! <3

PS. Can you spot the crow? :P

Go visit if you’re around. It’s nearby Al Fahidi Station and can be walked going to this place.

“Aqua Luna” 

“Cheung Po Tsai” is the Aqua Luna junk hand built for the Aqua Restaurant Group using traditional shipbuilding methods over an 18 month period by a local craftsman supervised by a veteran 73 year old shipbuilder. The junk with its distinctive red sails is named after the Cheung Chau Island pirate who terrorised the South China Sea at the turn of the twentieth century and was launched in 2006 with a capacity to carry 80 passengers excluding crew.

New Zealand Adventure: Hobbiton 

Did you know that there’s ranking in the Hobbit’s houses based where they are placed? That’s why Mr. Bilbo Baggins’ house is on the top-most one.

Go to this  most picturesque private farmland. The set has been completely rebuilt for The Hobbit and will remain as it was seen in these films and The Lord of the Rings film trilogy.

Clickhere to book in a fascinating two-hour guided tour.

Truly a MUST-VISITplace when in New Zealand! :)

Journey To Japan: Magical Starlight Parade

We were already in Osaka, and of course, we visited Universal Studios! :)

I was not able to take photos earlier that day for I had to leave my camera with my parents so me and my brother could ride rides.

This was this their last performance for the day and a bunch of characters parade through out the street! Too bad I only have a few nice shots, but nonetheless, it’s an amazing show!

It’s something to look out for when you visit this theme park! :)

Journey to Japan: Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavillion)

Kinkaku-ji is a Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan. I just love how the pavilion reflects on the water. It’s kinda funny that they have signs that we can’t use tripods. Oh well, I think I still have pretty decent shots. :) A must-visit place when in Japan! :)

Visited Kyoto’s Imperial Palace where Tamed Deers are nearby.

And you can feed this animals! XD Just beware though, they know if you have food.. and will just keep following you until you give him or her treats. Just be careful, because they eat papers too. So make sure your money is hidden in a safe place. ;) *wink*

It was a rainy day for us, but it was fun to be at one of the happiest place on earth! :) I wish the they speak to you in english though. It was a bit hard to understand, especially when they are giving instructions. My brother and I basically just copy the people in front of us. HAHA! XD
