Searching for Paris’s Soul? Paris’s soul likes to hide during the day. It follows the Seine at night, twinkles on the tranquil river and shines on the facade of the stately Haussmanian buildings as the Bateaux Mouches dart their inquisitive beam along the quays.

Global Osmosis: April 2010

Running for a Reason. Before the whirlwind begins, I’d like to take a step back from Malaysia tales and return across the Bay of Bengal to India, to the day I realized how not to travel, and the day that inspired the creation of this blog. 8221; moments –I didn’t want to be an audience to the bustling streets of India; I wanted to be a participant. I kept writing frantically. As I formulated my plan for this blog, the oh-so-overused cliché kept running through my head. “Live for the journey...O now with ...

How often can you say you’ve walked across a country, from one coast to the other, in one day? Not too often I suspect, but in New Zealand, you can. You can do this in Auckland via the Coast to Coast Walkway. A 16-km route that takes you from the Waitemata Harbour on the Pacific Ocean to the Manukau Harbour on the Tasman Sea.

Exploring the world one step at a time. Published, Media Coverage. Two hours to 2016. December 31, 2015. January 1, 2016. I never thought I’d manage to squeeze this piece in before the end of 2015 but hey, here I am. But that was two hours ago. It’s now 10 o’clock where I am, I’ve completed my work for the year (hah! And since I’ve got two hours left before 2016 steps in, this’ll be a good time to look back at the last twelve months. I think I like doing this. I really, really like this. Next year won’t ...

PASSPORT CONFESSIONAL: March 2010
http://passportconfessional.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 29, 2010. Looking Back: Jordan and Israel. Last year, I was fortunate enough to travel to the Middle East twice—once to Jordan and once to Israel. It was my first time traveling to both countries—and to the region—and I honestly didn’t know what to expect from either trip. In preparing for both journeys, however, I inevitably encountered the same questions from concerned friends and family: Will you be safe there? Will you have to cover yourself up? In Jerusalem; and I discovered that Tel A...

Learning, loving Wine and fabulous. Food and Wine Pairings. Food and Wine Pairings. I found this article to be useful from Food and Wine and I have my own little suggestions so you can use your own imagination and experience. But usually with food pairings and parties, I pick out light bodied wine for cocktail hours and parties that have finger foods and tapas. It might be the persons first stop before dinner so you don’t want to fill them up. Pates, Mousses- Zinfandel. Sweet and Spicy Sauces- Malbecs.
