It’s been almost a year since I’ve left Beijing and I still think about how the city landscape was in such dramatic change while I was there, as I’m sure it still is. At that time I also met Jonah Kessel (via Twitter), who filmed a series of short videos for Asia Society, the first is titled “A Disappearing World.” [...]

Flickr uploads from Yunnan Province

As a result, I’ve finally had the chance to do some end-of-the-year cleaning of photos. And I’ve gotten around to editing photos from all the way back in May [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve had American food (though it seems that’s all I write about)! This is just a quick update to share what I’ve been writing for VeggieWala. Check out a few things [...]

亲爱的日记 (或亲爱的网络）
三月底的时候我用英文写了一个博客文章，让我想多了。现在我想试试用中文写一张。首先，不好意思，我非常长的时间没写（打）中文了！还有，这个主题自是过去年的印象，印象也对自己的想发，等等。好了，我试试开始！ 很有意思啊，我写了英文张博客的时候是刚从青海省西宁市回香港的。我现在写这张，也在西宁了！太重合了！:)

Dear Diary (aka the interwebs)
**The following is a bit of self-reflection, ranting, sentimental thinking, and whatever else is in my train of thought. You’ve been warned.** A year has passed. I’m a year older. And I’ve moved to another city. A lot happens in one year. A friend passed. Old friendships continue to grow, other friends have drifted, and [...]

Haha, proof with the newest snippet of my contribution to VeggieWala: I recently took another trip to Hong Kong and encountered a pleasant and tranquil surprise.

Lucky Bookstore, Shanghai
It’s a week into the Year of the Rabbit and I’m wishing everyone all the best for the new lunar year! To keep with the luck, perhaps a visit to the lucky bookstore is an order: Happy Chinese New Year! And there couldn’t be a more fitting way to be greeted into the year of [...]

Buddhist Meats are Vegetarian Friendly
Check out an excerpt from my newest contribution to VeggieWala: Chinese cuisine is always said to be particularly difficult to navigate as a veggie foodie. I’m not personally a vegetarian; however, I certainly appreciate the dietary, health, and moral factors, and sympathize with the troubles of eating as a vegetarian. We ordered a variety of dishes, [...]
