I Haven’t Been Everywhere Yet
I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list. —Susan Sontag I’m getting itchy feet again. They usually start tingling once I’ve been settled into a routine for more than a few months. I’ve found routines make time pass quickly, but the monotony of doing the same thing every day wears me out. I exacerbate [...]
Lonely Planet Christmas Wish List
Where would I be without my Lonely Planet? I admit. I’m a travel fiend. When we’re not on the road, I’ve usually got my nose stuck in a travel book of some kind. More often than not, it’s a Lonely Planet publication of some sort. These titles are at the top of my wish list [...]
In Travel: Parks A Plenty
Plain and simple. I like parks. If there’s a park around, I will surely find my way to it at some point or another. I think you can really get a feel for a city when you visit its parks. I come from a park town. Ottawa is well-known for its parks. In fact, there [...]
Fu Jen University Award Ceremony and Christmas Party
This music thing is really starting to work for me. And it has all come together in the same way things came together for me in China. It’s almost eerie. I dabbled with my music during my first year in China, but what really set the wheels in motion were the two Christmas shows I [...]

Tokyo Fashion Police: What’s Wrong With This Picture # 2
This guy was by far the most interesting looking person we’ve seen on our travels and he was more than happy to oblige when we asked for a picture. There’s so much going I totally missed the peak-a-boo nipples until I looked at the picture when we got home. I was too busy gazing with [...]
Japan Photo Journal: Harajuku Kids and a Battle of the Bands
Spend a day walking around Harajuku and you’ll get more than you ever need for a gaggle of sights. Harajuku is well-known for its boutiques and bistros and famous for its Harajuku Kids and Cos-play-zoku aka The Costume Play Gang. A day spent here is a day in voyeur’s paradise.
Tokyo Street Fashion and the Fashion Police #1
Everyone wants to be a musician in Tokyo. That means the area around Tokyo’s School of Music is always swarming with wanna-be-musicians looking for a lucky break. This GUY was the absolute worst singer I’ve ever heard. His sense of fashion is as bad as his singing. He sure knows how to work those shades [...]
