WEEKEND AT THE VINPEARL GOLF LAND RESORT & VILLAS

It's at least an hour and a half flight from Hanoi to Nah Trang. The flight went pretty well and yes, the sunset view up there was really good. Attempted to take photos but when you're sitting near the exit area, so awkwrd to walk around to take a perfect shot of the sunset.

Re-thinking, I think im getting used to living in a cold weather like Hanoi already, to be honest a similar weather like in Baguio, where I came from. I'm aware that summer weather is gonna be pretty hot but its good to enjoy the season this time of the year.

Landed in NAH TRANG - I always love arriving in Nah Trang, the weather, the people and the place. Not so fancy like a huge city full of traffic and the huzzling and buzzling, lots of highrise building but Nah Trang is so peaceful and zen... at least for me... ;) BUT I think its also important as well to stay somewhere located in a place where you feel at ease. VINPEARL. I thought the place is located in a great location for finding serene. The moment you arrived in the Island, all you wanted to do is leave everything (your stuff) in your hotel room and get out and enjoy the place. The sea view that is soooooo welcoming and the outdoor activities that is appropriate for any age.

Here, we arrived around 7.30 pm and when the lights are on. It's such a beauty. Vinpearl Golf Land Resort & Villas, built on a scenic and peaceful place. I thought the hotel is fabulous! What I love about this place is so new that everything inside are soooo sparkly. When staying in a new hotel, I always love exploring the place. I enjoy viewing their interior decorations, designs, the kids club, restaurants and bar and the combination of modern and cultural ambience in presenting their unique perspectives and etc.. BEAUTIFUL!

So yeah! From a cloudy weather to a blue skies.. Have a great warm weekend my beau-friends!

WEEKEND IN PATTAYA -Food trips

"Food is our common ground, a universal experience." - James Beard

hi there my beau-friends! how's your first day of the week going so far. Hope it's blissful!

Just a quick one: this time I'm gonna share something about foods! who doesn't love foods! lolz..

Got all my tilapia dish.. Different way of cooking this weekend. Thought I'm gonna share.

What I really enjoyed this weekend's food was the way they cooked Tilapia. But before we had our main course, we had our Thai traditional food as our starter.

The presentation of the way they cooked Tilapia was pretty good. Way back home, i only know how to fry tilapia and that's it! lolz..

Anyways, I've also enjoyed most, though, was sitting and meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. I am not a great cook but it's so much fun listening with the way the chef can become an artist too, awesome!

Have a great afternoon ahead! cheers!

Amazing Saturday!

Had an amazing Satruday! 

Hi my Beau-Friends,  Hope everyone are well today.  Sharing you my beautiful Saturday experience! 

As usual, took for about 3 hours drive from Bangkok to Centara Grand Modus Resort Pattaya. We arrived around 4 in the afternoon. When we arrived, the GM (General Manager) and the staff were there to welcome us. There was an ongoing event when we arrived so it was pretty busy.

I thought our Saturday night stay at the hotel was fantastic but let me share from start: ;)
First up: There are 3 or four buildings on site, don't get lost as to where the reception is, just ask the staff when you arrived and they will show you. Secondly, The location is fantastic because you are right on the bay, meaning you will really enjoy viewing the perfect setting for unbelievable sunsets each night. The rooms are good. Different style and nice decorations. The best part, I love it when i feel like I'm in my bed when traveling. The bed and the pillows are soooo comfy.. (reason why I'm loving Centara Hotels & Resorts) ;)

Same night, me and my niece went for a dinner at the all-day dining restaurant - Modus Bistro. Different ambiance, decorations are mostly made of metals, different inspirations. We sat next to the hanging chains, very heavy.. And yes, we had a great time at the restaurant catching up whilst having our Vegetarian Pizza plus the Greek Salad! Beautiful! In short, we wrapped up our evening pretty good.

Before leaving the next day, me and my husband, we went for a walk at the pool and the beach area. There are two pool there, one for adults and for kids and its facing the ocean. Something that i missed though was visiting the The Sanctuary of Truth temple which is very close to the hotel. I love beaches and sands but thought visiting temples when in different places in Asia is cool too.

T'was a night at the hotel. The overall experience is pretty cool. Totally!
