My Escorted Tours

Started my South Korea adventure flying from Winnipeg to Vancouver to Seoul. Before getting busy, recharged myself for a night in Seoul and enjoyed some spicy noodle then flew the following day to Busan. Going up in Busan Observatory Tower made me see how beautiful the city is. Buying some local stuff was easy thanks to Lotte Mall, but riding in a public bus on a busy hour can be difficult specially if the employees of Hyundai Motors got off from their work, not enough space in the bus. So moved on the next city, Ulsan via KTX train. Walking in Ulsan beach and having coffee at Paris Baguette were my favorite simple treat. And to complete my South Korean historic adventure, went back to Seoul via KTX train and visited Gyeongbokgung Palace and Changdeokgung Palace and bought myself some fancy South Korean moisturizing cream and metal chopsticks for souvenir.

Before moving into Canada, flew to Hong Kong for few days with my cousin for shopping at Causeway Bay and night market in Mong Kok. The hotel that we stayed arranged a day tour which includes the Victoria Peak to see best panoramic views of Hong Kong, visited Lantau Island to see the giant Buddha, and stopped in Stanley market for souvenirs.

Then flew Singapore stayed at Pan Pacific and Malaysia at Hilton for few days. Took a stroll to see Merlion Park and went shopping and had dinner at Clarke Quay. Had a chance to have dinner Fullerton Hotel courtesy of a former boss and while waiting for dinner, we were eating nuts and throwing nut shells on the floor which was totally fine.

Because Malaysia is very closed, I took more than an hour and half flight to Kuala Lumpur and had a chance to see the Petronas Tower and had the delicious and spicy mee goreng noodles.

Flew to Thailand with a colleague. Stayed in Holdiay Inn just few steps away from Siam Paragon Mall. We went to Shangrila Hotel which is near to our boat for the dinner boat cruise. It was really nice boat cruise as you can see so many lighted temples at night. To have better view of Bangkok, we had a tuk tuk ride and went Mahanakon Sky Bar. Then on the last day we went to the floating market of Ratchaburi and tried lots of local dishes.
