Last day Abu Dhabi

 On my last day I visited the Louvre of Abu Dhabi and the presidential palace, Qasr Al Watan.

I didn't have a lot of time, also with my limited history knowledge I couldn't relate much to the Louvre, I didn't really feel there was much of a connected story. I did book a 30 min tour of the presidential palace. No one lives there but it is where other presidents and kings are hosted. It was incredible, lots of cool colour themes and patterns throughout. Pictures do not do this justice.


I am now on my way to Oman. Pics don't show up on my computer but do show up on my phone! Hope you guys can see something!


I had brunch at Marked at Edition, it was amazing, I had a combo for 140 AED, pics below and how I felt after... all breakfast should be as such!


Finally, Abu Dhabi Pearl lounge was amazing at 2 pm full spread of salad bar, hot items, desserts, nice coffee machine, great lounge space. Thanks UAE!

Hello Philip Blog readers! It's been a hot minute because I have been so busy doing fun stuff in Japan. Out of all my travels, I have spent the most amount of time preparing for this trip. Booking restaurants, reviewing shitty instagram reels, understanding how to efficiently do activities like Tokyo Disney, and how to travel plan efficiently (places near each other or near subway lines). Not to mention intensive 2 months of Japanese study before my trip and daily lesson over zoom 2 weeks before. So far execution has been. near flawless! You can clearly have a great time without planning anything, but given how much there is to do, and how expensive it is to stay, efficiency is key. We started off in Tokyo, I arrived the day before where the weather was crappy but after that it's been really good! I surprised my group with oranges (Seinfeld reference but also super tasty). Lots of fruit in Japan is quite expensive but SO good. Team Planets was one of our activities which blew m...

So far my Japan trip has been going amazingly. With so much planning, I feel there was mainly only a few hiccups. I have felt as though I have explored so much, but still left so much to see or do. The trip definitely prioritized food and doing stuff. I am now at Coto Japanese school studying Japanese, I am beginner 1 level 3. I feel like we are able to have basic conversation but enough to make the class a fun and conversational. Teachers seem a bit limited with English but it also forces us to use more Japanese to ask questions. The school is beautiful with as much roasted tea as a I want, but the class size was up to 8 one day, but it seems people miss often, today we had 3 people... I am family with most of the grammar, but I am way behind on the Kanji. I have avoided learning this as I was worried it would slow down my speaking, but now the time has come. It is extremely logical and kinda fun, but I suspect it takes a bit before it's really helping. However, as I am going to T...
