Staying Local - Labor Day Weekend in Chengdu

The highlights of this Labor Day weekend included panda bears, peacocks, and an amusement park. Instead of traveling, I stayed local and explored Chengdu with my friends. 

Jewel Lizards

Meet the jewel lizard (Liolaemus tenuis), one of Chile's most beautiful and interesting species!

STEM - Past and Present

STEM is all around us. In New York City, I thought that STEM provided modern conveniences to life. In China, I have discovered that STEM has been around for centuries.

Tea - A Chinese Tradition

Tea is an ancient Chinese tradition that has carried over to the modern world. One of China's biggest exports, tea is of great importance to Chinese culture. 

El Asado

Grilled food, drinks, and hanging with friends? Welcome to the asado, Chile's own version of the backyard barbecue!

Xi'an - A Foodie's Paradise

Guided by my love of the Xi'an food I've had in New York City, I visited the actual city of Xi'an to taste the food straight from the source. It didn't disappoint! 

Dulce de Leche (Manjar)

Differences in names are just one of the things I have to consider while dining here in Chile, but that won't stop me from enjoying this Latin American treat! 

Biking Across Town

The most popular form of transportation in New York City is public transportation. Trains and buses can get you anywhere in the city. In Wenjiang, however, bicycles are very widely used.

The Public Buses

Many Chileans use the public transport system here in Santiago, and riding the bus can be quite an adventure!

Chengdu to Chongqing

Just a quick update where I am and where I went this weekend. I traveled from Chengdu to Chongqing on a high speed bullet train. I hope to go back soon!
