My love affair with Barcelona has been ongoing for the past 6 years, since 2009. Each time I visit Bacelona, I observe the Chinese population steadily increasing, spreading from one neighborhood to another. I finally came to Barcelona to live in October of 2014, and since I’m a terrible cook, I quickly found the best […]

Hardstyle in Madrid – Fabrik
My rating of the event: 6.5/10. It was really cool to see hardstyle so big in Madrid, and to visit the legendary Fabrik. The music and lineup were great, though I wasn’t crazy about the crowd and especially not by the drink prices.
12 Surprising things I learned in Amsterdam
Amsterdam is a city most well known for its tolerance and its canals… And although I had been there 15 years ago, there were things that caught me by surprise this time going there as an adult! 1. Public Male Toilets. Like… Really public! To combat public urination into the canals, the Amsterdam city government […]
ASOT Festival Utrecht Review
My rating for the event: 6.5/10… from a non-trance fan. If I were a huge fan of trance, I suppose it would be 8/10. The organization was great, but I felt like it lacked the umph factor of a “Festival” and I wasn’t in love with the crowd. A State of Trance – ASOT – […]

Chinese population in the Netherlands actually forms one of the largest Chinese communities in continental Europe, with a population of around 80K. […]

At the end of January, I took advantage of the fact that flights from Barcelona to London were cheap (70 euros round trip, and even as low as 40 euros if you book far enough […]
What it’s like to be Asian in Brazil
I read a Quora question asking about what it’s like to be Japanese Brazilian. I’m very interested in race and immigration, and have been exploring the question of what it’s like to be Asian in Brazil for quite some time. I’m not Japanese Brazilian, but Asian American and lived, worked, and traveled in Brazil for a […]
Ten surprising things I learned in London
I had never been to the UK until last weekend. Even though I had chances to in the past, I was never very interested in visiting the country because I thought it’d be similar to America (after all, we all speak English and we were a British colony, right?). Boy was I wrong!!! 1. The […]
