From Hongkong with Love

My last trip to Hongkong was July 2008 with Maia Reyes. Man, do I miss that city... the scent of duck and noodles, Central district, and the spit of Chinese people on the sidewalk... and the shopping! Oh, the shopping!

Here are a few postcards from Maia's latest trip this year. Thanks for this, Maister! And I hope we can go back together soon.

Oh, Spain!

I've never been to Spain (or any country in Europe for that matter), but I'd like to go to someday. My ex-intern, Nikki Rocha, at my previous company Inquirer, is in Europe right now, sending me wonderful postcards. So sweet! These make me want to go there even more! Oh, someday, one day...

The Bavarian Sugar Cookies


"Sometimes, when we lose ourselves in fear and despair, in routine and constancy, in hopelessness and tragedy, we can thank God for Bavarian sugar cookies. And, fortunately, when there aren't any cookies, we can still find reassurance in a familiar hand on our skin, or a kind and loving gesture, or subtle encouragement, or a loving embrace, or an offer of comfort, not to mention hospital gurneys and nose plugs, an uneaten Danish, soft-spoken secrets, and Fender Stratocasters, and maybe the occasional piece of fiction. And we must remember that all these things, the nuances, the anomalies, the subtleties, which we assume only accessorize our days, are effective for a much larger and nobler cause. They are here to save our lives. I know the idea seems strange, but I also know that it just so happens to be true." -Kay Eiffel, Stranger Than Fiction
