My First Airbnb Experience – Airbnb in Cebu
It’s been a few years since I’ve heard about Airbnb. I have created my Airbnb account since 2016. While I was planning my one week in Japan trip, I actually looked for a great place to stay in the Airbnb app. In the end, we decided to just book the Infinity Hotel Dome Osaka. It was one of the most unique hotels we’ve stayed at. There was no staff and have a self-check-in and self check-out system. It sounds a bit complicated but it was not.

Tongli Water Town Guide – Venice of the East
Venice is a very popular destination for travelers. It is in most of the traveler’s bucket list.

However, Tongli Water Town is a great alternative if you cannot visit Venice in Italy since it’s just a few hours’ flight. Tongli Water Town is also called the Oriental Venice or Venice of the East.

During my first international travel, the biggest mistake I did was not having travel insurance. Prior to booking my flights to Hong Kong, I have watched travel videos and read travel blogs.

It made me anxious and worried that the same thing would happen on our trip since we are also flying with the same airline. I decided that we would not check in our luggage and just bring one carry on bag per person instead. It was a great decision since…
