Our New Journey

living to the fullest

Author: Coco

I have always loved traveling and travel often for work. But 2.5 years ago we moved to Manila and started to travel more for leisure. It was the start of our journey to explore the world and ourselves as a family. My daughters love traveling with passion and always want to go to new places, meet new people, try new food. This blog will record our journey in this new living style and my thoughts around it.

Sunday pre-LR rituals and day dreaming

Sunday starts with pre-LR ritual: a snack (small bowl of oatmeal that I made for husband); fill the camel bag with 1.5 liter of water with 2/3 packet of LMNT; pack gels and another pack of LMNT because I always refill my camel 2/3 of the way; carry sunscreen stick (use it maybe 50% of … Continue reading Sunday pre-LR rituals and day dreaming →

Dua lipa cancelled

I woke up and was shocked to receive the email informing that the concert is cancelled. While she has arrived Jakarta, she won’t be performance tonight due to technical or safety concerns about the stage. This is very unusual but what can we do. The most devastating person is Lizzy. She was grumpy for quite … Continue reading Dua lipa cancelled →
