Yolanda: Let's help

With the impact that Yolanda has made on the Philippines these past few days, clearly documented on newspapers and media channels, I cannot help but look at the photos and footage with a crease on my forehead - worried and sad on the lives affected because of it.

How can your heart not go out to those people who lost their shelters and their loved ones? I am honestly not the most emphatic person on this planet, but a surge of compassion goes out to those who are left hungry, devastated and bereft.


It's a bittersweet moment -- that more and more people and institutions are reaching out and helping the Yolanda victims. Here are some institutions who did just that, just click on the photos to direct you their website with the details on how you can help:

There are different ways to get to Kyoto but the cheapest and fastest is by train. Taxis are very expensive in Japan! Buses and trains are just about the same price so you can plot your way to this famous spot either way. Fushimi Inari Shrine

La Creperie Boheme: Where Sweet & Savory Meet

When I came in La Creperie Boheme to have my brunch fix two Saturdays ago, I was quick to smile at the table of yuppies who smiled at my direction. I thought they were friends with Christine, the co-owner of this lovely resto, so I armed myself with an easy smile that seemed a little awkward at first, but was nonetheless sincere. That was the first sign that this was going to be a different-sort of dining experience. :)
