Some time in the future

I took this photo in Tel Aviv, Israel. The photo shows one of the unique shaped architectures that I've seen in the capital of Israel.  This building was on Tel Aviv Beach Road across from the long white sand beach, and my hotel was about a few minutes walk from there. I love Tel Aviv. The weather was pretty good, every local cuisines were so yummy, plus I loved to see those interesting architectures in the streets. I don't know when I will be able to revisit Tel Aviv, but it's always in my bucket list. I wanna go back some time in the future.

A Thai-Belgian place on Naklua Road, North Pattaya

I took this photo at a restaurant-bar on Naklua Road in North Pattaya, Thailand. It's a Thai Belgian place which is relatively expensive and I stopped by there just for a pint of Stella Artois on draught. Although there are so many places for beer in Pattaya, Thailand, the places where you can have Stella on tap is pretty rare. But if you walk along Naklua Road in North Pattaya, you'll find more than one place for Stella, so have fun there if you'd love to. Yep, I'm the one who loves Stella Artois so much and I enjoyed a lot.

Sakara Gold 500ml : Alc. 4.0% by Vol.

The photo shows Sakara Gold which I had at my hotel's restaurant in Giza, Egypt after spending such a long time in the water and on a lounge chair in front of the Pyramids. It sounds surreal, I can imagine, but it was true. The hotel was this close to the three famous Pyramids in Giza, and their guests could enjoy viewing the Pyramids from the hotel's swimming pool, the poolside, the swim up bar and restaurant, and from their guest rooms. Of course, booking the Pyramids view rooms were relatively expensive than booking the other side's rooms, but how could I be so frugal when I book a hotel room in front of the Pyramids.

TAP Portugal, the national flag career of Portugal

I took this photo somewhere in between Lisbon and Belém, Portugal. i've been to Belém twice. For my first visit to Belém, I caught a train from Cais do Sodré Railway Station in Lisbon and also I got back to Lisbon by train. On the train, I got an idea that probably it would be fun to have this journey on foot. So, for my second visit to Belém, I decided to get there on foot. It was a warm and beautiful day with picture perfect sky like the photo shows. When I was walking somewhere in between Lisbon and Belém, I saw some aircrafts flew to somewhere else. The aircraft on this photo is an aircraft of TAP Portugal which is the flag career airline of Portugal.

Hey limo, wait a sec. I think I need a photo.

I took this photo in Las Vegas, NV, the United States of America. When I was walking on Las Vegas Blvd, I saw this white limo. The limo was about to hit the road onto Vegas strip from Hilton Grand Vacations on the Boulevard. I thought it was super cool, and took a photo immediately. What a fun city where I could see a lot of unusual things. The scale of almost everything was so different from many other things I knew. I've experienced a lot of different first time events in Vegas. Three years later, I went back to Vegas to spend some more time in that fun entertainment city.

A beer hall in Munich, Germany

I took this photo at one of the most famous beer halls in Munich, Germany. HB. I thought it was probably the most famous one (I think still it is) and went there twice to have good beer with German signature meals in a very very nice atmosphere. The beer hall was packed of course, but was not cramped. I mean the beer hall was really spacious and the beer hall itself seemed like welcoming a lot of beer lovers there. A very enjoyable place to have cold ones. There, beer was served in a huge HB beer mug, and the food was served on a plate with HB logo.

Being myself under so many paper lanterns

I took this photo on Lunar New Year's Eve 2014 in Nakhon Ratchasima (a.k.a. Korat), Thailand near the Statue of Thao Suranari. A massive Lunar New Year's Eve Event was held in the heart of the city and I was right there at that moment. I enjoyed being there surrounded by so many paper lanterns, so many locals, so many stalls (which included very nice Thai food selections, not to mention), and so much more. I spent another 10 days in Nakhon Ratchasima and returned to Bangkok, the capital of Thailand. I spent 21 days in Nakhon Ratchasima in total.

TG941 MXP - BKK; the 2nd meal; Jan 2014

The photo shows an in-flight meal of Thai Airways International flight TG941 Milan, Italy to Bangkok, Thailand (MXP - BKK). It was about an eleven-hour flight and the photo shows the second meal on the plane. It was served near the end of the long flight, and was like a European style breakfast. I enjoyed to have roasted potatoes, a roasted tomato, a grilled sausage, an omelette, and a croissant, plus some fruits and yogurt. I love Thailand so much, and Thai Airways International is my all-time favorite airline. I personally believe that fly with Thai means half the fun is getting there.

I prefer solo trip

I took this photo through my hotel room window in Berlin, Germany. I spent for a couple of nights in Berlin, the capital of Germany. On the second day in Berlin, I joined a bus tour to see a lot of must-sees in the city at once. I enjoyed the guided-tour with a local tour director and it ended around noon. After the half-day bus tour, half the people still sat on a bus to visit Potsdam and so on with the local tour guide as an optional tour. I didn't join them and caught a train to visit Potsdam by myself. I saw the tour group in Potsdam. I thought that it really was a small world, but I prefer solo trip. Also, I wanted to take a train by myself.

Dutch fingerpost

I took this photo in Amsterdam, Holland. I found this Dutch fingerpost near the Anne Frank House (Dutch: Anne Frank Huis). According to the fingerpost, I was about 0.4 km away from the Anne Frank House and its biographical museum. By the way, this finger post looks really Amsterdam, doesn't it? When I looked up the top of the fingerpost, I really thought so. It consisted three Saint Andrew's Crosses just like the coat of arms of Amsterdam does. With that, it looked really Amsterdam. Well done, Amsterdam, I love that idea.
