I love everything about Taipei 101 from its mascots, name, icon, building structure, lift and shopping mall. No wonder it is the pride of all Taiwanese people.

I brought some postcards from this little girl, Gnom at Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Beside giving me the postcard, she give me this simple “Thank You” note with self-drawn flowers on it. It was so sweet.
Simple “Thank You” Note from GNOM
At the moment, i was just trying to escape from all the small kids. Once you buy something from one, you will be swamped by many other small kids.
It’s never easy to differentiate. There will always be white and black sheep among the group. At least that what i believe in.

My favourite temple in Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm. Ta Prohm was built in the late 12th century by Jayavarman VII as a shrine to his mother and is a must for anyone coming to Siem Reap, Angkor Wat.
It isn’t the temple structure that attract me but rather those tall, huge and massive tree. It’s make me feel so small and insignificant in front of Mother Nature.

Sunrise and Sunset always make me feel at ease with mother nature. It’s a phenomenon that is happening everyday everywhere. Regardless where you are, you just have to view it with your eyes and heart.

There is always a story behind each picture but does it really portrait the real story? Maybe eventually, it’s just how we view ourselves?
Location: Cambodia, Siem Reap, Angkor Wat
First Impression: Cute and friendly little girls.
Reality: These little girls follow me round the temple despite me rejecting their offer. They wanted me to take their pictures and pay them US$1 in exchange. After rejecting their offer, they kept following me and ask “Why, Why, Why?”
Location: Laos, Xieng Khouang, One of the village that produce rice wine
First Impression: A humble kind granny that have a great smile.
Reality: Just like the description above.

Today my Swedish manager and his counterparts was chatting about their weekend getaway to Taiwan, Taipei. It was kinda of strange to hear what they likes and dislikes about this getaway, some of which i agreed while some i don’t. They loved Taiwanese people friendliness yet hated stinky tofu and hot spring. One of them even told me that he preferred to soak in cold water rather than in a hot spring.
Whenever i reached a new destination, i like to experience things local eat and do. That’s me. I got to agree that i don’t like urban area(city) coz i am already living within one. I loved mother nature. It make me feel so small and insignificant. Time seems to stay put at that particular moment, just me and the nice scenic view which i can’t seem to capture using my camera. Just thinking of it right now, it’s making me want to experience that feeling once again.
Enough talking. Let the picture do the talking.
