Across the years, the journeys expanded far beyond that first write-up. The blog has followed travels through the United States, Australia, Mexico, Switzerland, Germany, France, Mongolia, China, South Korea, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Taiwan, alongside many places across the Philippines. Japan, where it all began, remains a constant thread in these travels, from the northern landscapes of Hokkaido to the southern islands of Okinawa, each visit adding depth to the narrative. Along the way, visits to World Heritage Sites such as Angkor Wat, the City of Bern, the Historic Center of Mexico City, Ayutthaya, the Great Wall of China, and Ha Long Bay, among others, have added another layer of perspective by connecting each journey to broader historical and cultural narratives.
