After five long years of not having a family holiday, we finally packed and headed off to South Korea for eight days. It has always been my dream place to visit because I love watching K-dramas and wanted to experience their life there.
My True Ghost Story – Japan Hotel
This is my second supernatural encounter in a hotel, but this time, the location was in Osaka. Before I go into details, why not check out my post on Chinese superstitions entering hotel room.
This happened in 16 May 2010; my sister-in-law, husband and I went to Japan for a holiday. On this occasion, my sister-in-law stayed in one room by herself, whilst my husband and I were in another room. It was a very compact room, but it had everything we needed. The moment you open the door, there was the landing and a toilet on our left. Then there was a double bed and a small table with books near the window. The room was bright and well decorated. I was very surprised to see a range of holy books displayed on the table. I did not look into the details but I’m pretty sure they were the Shinto holy book and bible.
My True Ghost Story – Venice Hotel
No matter how many stars a hotel is rated, it doesn’t mean they are ‘clean’. There could be natural deaths, murders or suicides in a hotel room. Some hotels are rumoured to be haunted. Have you stayed in such a hotel?
We Chinese have a special way of entering a hotel room. We have a list of rituals and superstitions to follow before we go into the room. Have a read of this post on Chinese superstitions when entering a hotel room.

Choosing Food And Drink For Your Wedding
The Heart And “Sole” Of Your Big Day: Choosing Food And Drink For Your Wedding!
The happiest days of your life can be, in many ways, one of the most stressful. In the lead up to your wedding day, you have so many things to keep track of, that the overall stress can wear you down. This is why it’s important to make it an enjoyable process, and if you are in heaven when the topic of food comes up, choosing the ideal food and drink for your wedding is one of the most pleasurable aspects of wedding planning. On one hand, tasting the food is enjoyable, but while you have to think about it purely relating to you and your partner, don’t forget you have other people to please too.

Paradise Wildlife Park: Snooze at the Zoo Review
This half term we were invited to a fantastic and rare opportunity to stay overnight at the animal park and experience the atmosphere and sounds of the wild as the sun goes down. Of course, if you like what you read below, you are able to book this experience with Paradise Wildlife Park. Snooze at the Zoo Experience also includes a sumptuous continental style breakfast in Tiger Treetops and a special hands on tour of the zoo.
Paradise Wildlife Park is a family-run animal park located in Broxbourne in Hertfordshire, England. It took us over 2 hours to drive there. They are situated 20 miles North of London, just off the A10 near to junction 25 of the M25. They do offer a minibus service from and to Broxbourne Train Station which costs you £1 or free for under 2 years if you don’t drive.
My favourite Disney Film
On 30th October 2012, it was announced that the The Walt Disney Company would acquire Lucasfilm. We were over the moon. We love to watch all Disney films and we are also a fan of Star Wars. With these two combined, I have high expectations they will produce the greatest Disney film ever!
