Building the Great Wall of Thai – Part 8
Slowly but surely, we’ve finally finished constructing the walls in front of the house. As the weather gets warmer here in LA, it’s been getting harder and harder to muster up the motivation to work outside. There’s been a few days of gloom so we’ve completely taken advantage and trying to crank out this wall […]
I <3 New York - Day 5
Monday morning, I woke up feeling sluggish with a tingle in my throat. It’s almost expected of me to get sick at the end of a trip because I exhaust myself from all the things I try to cram into a day. So of course I woke up with the beginnings of a cold on […]

I <3 New York - Day 3

I <3 New York - Day 2
Since we explored lower Manhattan the day before, we took the double-decker bus to upper Manhattan this time. We stopped at Central Park and rented bikes to bike around the park.

Arizona Day 4
Peter and I packed up our belongings for the long drive back to LA. We made a pit stop at Lake Havasu to visit the London Bridge and to have lunch at In-N-Out, which has become a traditional end-of-a-road-trip lunch for us. By the time we got back to LA, it was already time for […]
Arizona Day 3
We said our goodbyes to Kay and set off on the 2 1/2 hour drive to Flagstaff. Along the way, we were actively searching for the perfect looking cactus to take a photo with and we found it at a random park! We got to the Grand Canyon right after lunch and were prepared to […]
Arizona Day 2
Kay, Peter, and I started our day with a super quick hike to the Hole in the Rock in Papago Park followed by breakfast at D’Lish (and yes, it was delish!). Then, Peter and I drove another 2 hours to Sedona to ride ATVs in the Red Rock State Park. Compared to others, I felt like I […]
