Halloween is here and the spooky vibes are in the air, so how about a little throwback to this old, eerie museum? The Old Melbourne Gaol is a former prison right in the heart of Melbourne, Australia. Today, it’s a heritage museum, but back in the day, it was where some of Australia’s most notorious …
I’m still pretty bummed out that our annual Halloween celebration got cancelled this year because of COVID-19 social distancing measures. We didn’t even put up any Halloween decorations at home—what’s the point when no one’s coming, right? Fingers crossed everything gets better soon.

I started making these GIF stickers last December and ever since, I’ve been completely hooked. It’s so satisfying to see my drawings come alive and move. I’m always excited with every single GIF I create. I’ve even …
Here comes another Taipei post! This one’s a wrap-up of the trip as I’m playing catch-up before moving on to other posts. To be honest, I thought I took lots of photos during the trip, but as I scrolled through the folder, I realized I didn’t capture as much as I thought. Instead, there are …
I had a great time trying out a variety of foods in Taipei, so I decided to record them in this blog as a keepsake. With its abundant selection of night markets, street foods, restaurants, and cafes, Taipei is definitely a must-visit destination for foodies. Here are some of the highlights of the foods we …
During my trip to Taipei, we visited the Pinglin tea plantation and museum in New Taipei City and took a ride on a gondola in Maokong. We also enjoyed a mini tea ceremony, tasting various local teas in a cute little tea house. We booked a half-day tour and started early in the morning by …
