Postcards from Hanoi

Vietnam has so much to offer and the country has been doing a lot of work in successfully promoting the different tourist destinations. Hanoi is one of our favorite stops especially during the cold season because that’s the one that we don’t have here at home. We like the simplicity of the place, the mostly [...] Read More

The Last Lesson of Mrs de Souza by Cyril Wong

The Last Lesson of Mrs de Souza by Cyril Wong While it garnered mixed reviews, we still chose to feature this book in honor of World Teacher’s Day on October 5. The Last Lesson of Mrs de Souza will simultaneously make you hate, if you wanted more from her, and sympathize, knowing how teachers are [...] Read More

La Chinesca: Still Serving some of the Best Tacos in Town

Most of the photos in this feature are from when La Chinesca had a pop-up in Rockwell where we got to taste more than just their tacos. It was only when they opened at The Grid in Power Plant that we got to try their tacos and since then we’d always end up choosing their [...] Read More

For our only dinner splurge in Porto, we picked Élebê and it sure was a good choice. It was the best restaurant to have some quiet time and enjoy elevated local food. We took our time and for the first time in this trip finally slowed down a bit as we took little sips from [...] Read More

Porto Eats: Lareira

Away from the river and into the historic streets of this beautiful city, we found this perfect place to hang out with the most friendly staff. Best of all, everything was affordable. We don’t speak the local language but it was still a treat to listen to the chattering around us. At Lareira, we pictured [...] Read More

Porto Eats: Adega do Manel

The food and service was good but what we liked best at Adega do Manel was the view it offered of the Douro River especially during the sunset. There were many other restaurants along the river but we liked that this one was close to the bridge and that there were a lot of things [...] Read More

Where to Stay in Porto: Vincci Bonjardim 4*

With that in mind, we decided to book at Vincci Bonjardim 4* because it’s walking distance to almost all of the tourist areas. For example, just meters away [...] Read More
