There’s one place I wanna visit – China! It’s huge, the culture is interesting, the places… wow! There are lots to go to.  From where I’m currently based, its quite easy to travel to China, I could even do it overland. But the problem is that I can’t be issued a visa here and I still have to go back home to my home country to process a visa. Which is such as hassle. But this place will be on my list for sure.

For now I’ve been reading blogs, wikitravel, travel forums and checking out YouTube for travel videos to China..take this for instance…

Also, I’ve been interested in knowing the cultural do’s and don’ts when visiting the place, and found this video simple yet very helpful..

I love Japan!!! They always come up with the coolest, weirdest, unique stuff. Its on the top list of must-travel to countries. And I seriously wanna check this out…

A taxi filled with cats! Yes, cats. Though not real ones. Hahaha. Mr. Hiraga’s ‘cat mobile’ can be seen around Wakayama City. I have to make sure this city is in my itinerary if I ever visit Japan.

Hiraga started his cat collection 12 years ago with a single lucky cat decoration he bought from Kimii-dera temple. He thought the one cat looked kind of lonely, so he soon bought it a friend. His taxi now is filled with 888 lucky cats:

Pure awesomeness. But I wonder, does the taxi still have room for luggages? Lol! And I suppose this taxi should not go near any bird baths. I’m pretty sure its gonna scare off the birds.

Here’s another post on Asian fashion magazines. A-list Chinese actress Zhao Wei does a fashion spread for Harper’s Bazaar.

Beautiful..I love the colors, and the very oriental appeal of this fashion spread.

JWT Intelligence, a global marketing communications network announced that South Korean girl group Wonder Girls made it to the list of 100 Things to Watch in 2010.

JWT remarks in their website that, “With their good looks, slick packaging, infectious pop songs and trend-setting videos, this South Korean girl group has conquered Asia and has its sights on the rest of the world.” Check out their list here..

“It’s a nice surprise that Wonder Girls attracted the attention of the world-class ad company less than one year after they made their American debut,” said JYP Entertainment, the agency behind Wonder Girls. ”It’s meaningful that it acknowledged their potential.”

No surprise for me though when I keep hearing the non-stop airplay of their song Nobody, Nobody on radios almost everywhere..
