Joining Shane for his indoor track and field meet at University of Idaho was a great experience. It was also one of his former alma maters so I got a little tour there. Bonus was when he gave me a surprise!

I (Alice Koh) now offers Malaysian food catering with partnership from Feast World Kitchen, Spokane, Washington. There are so many dishes I like to cook but for now I have selected some of my favorites.

A walking tour in the city of Kotagede silversmith center brought us to our final destination – Kotagede HS Silversmith Gallery and Workshop. Beautiful artistry work showcasing their city’s famed old tradition of using filigree designs into their art pieces.

We didn’t expect much of Jogyakarta except a city to hop to Borobudur temples. This visit came as a pleasant surprise. A trip to the city center started with a car ride and then a walking tour to experience the sights and sounds of Jogya.

Our plan to make my grandparents’ vacant house into our second home in Malaysia was abandoned. I didn’t have a backup plan for lodging so here are all the short term rental woes we experienced.

This post is about Mamadeenee, a Muslim Thai woman we met in Krabi. She cooks delicious and affordable Thai dishes at her small stall in the RCA Entertainment lane. Check her out if you are in the area and help support her.

This 10 to 15 minutes Monkey Trail on rickety wooden steps take you away into a quiet, tropical jungle with the occasional monkeys hanging on the trees and walls at the entrance. With sea on one side, this trail leads to a secluded beach.

I didn’t know what I was saying when I suggested to Shane for this trip to Tiger Cave Temple or Wat Tham Suea. Well…a little over an hour later, some tears, lots of sweats we reached the summit and YES! The view was Spectacular!!!

Simply WOW! This kayaking adventure through mangrove forest and towering almost vertical limestone cliffs is something everyone should experience when visiting Krabi, Thailand.

Ao Nang Beach. Krabi in Thailand is as spectacular as all the photos I have seen online. This place is well known for its limestone karsts and beautiful turquoise waters. Read about the places we visit at Ao Nang.
