It’s our last day in Dubai! The week flew by so quickly! Although we were able to go to downtown Dubai on our first day, we didn’t really get to explore and although we have seen and passed by Burj Khalifa a few times during the week, this is the day that we’re going up…

Dubai Series: Dubai Parks and Resorts [2019.11.12]
Before anything else, I want to share a photo of the mosque near our hostel. It is right behind our building and I sat on one of the park benches quite a few times while I wait for Celine do some shopping at the convenience store. We totally got lost and accidentally took a longer…
Dubai Series: A Day at the Gardens and a Quickie at the Mall [2019.11.11]
We literally visited two gardens on this day, with a short stopover at a mall. We had a really funny morning because we wanted to visit the Carrefour nearby, but we couldn’t figure out where the entrance is. Seriously, we circled it and tried opening a door but it doesn’t open. We gave up and…

Sea You Next Year!
I started 2019 with no job and an almost empty bank account. But I made one good decision in the last few days of January, and everything else followed. I have written briefly about this on my birthday post on Insta, but I really am grateful for my job. Aside from the expected stuff like…
