Apart from a sore back and aching muscles on my calves, the trip has been great.

It was great to spend quality time together as a family and enjoying the sights and places. Tokyo, in Kyoto and Osaka are beautiful cities to visit and I personally have enjoyed the Japanese culture. The Japanese pays alot of attention and details to their personal hygiene, beauty and appearance. It is easy to find lots of health and beauty options everywhere but due to language barriers, I haven’t been able to find any organic shops to peek into. I find that teenagers are searching for treatments for acne and weight issues. Just turning on the tv and I can see that the tv-mercial selling is a strong market. While in Japan, be prepared to eat alot of pickled radish, soup and food products made from soy beans and raw salads whenever you have a Japanese meal. One thing I know, it’s easy to stay slim in Japan if you are on the public transport cos you need to walk so much and climb many flights of stairs each time you switch from subway to subway.

Tomorrow is my last day in Tokyo before heading to Hong Kong… till then, have a healthy week ahead.

After a short conversation with him, I can’t wait to visit London for myself. Actually there are a few places in my ‘must travel’ list, that includes Orlando vacations, The Caribbean, Europe and of course, London.

Being a travel freak, nothing is more relaxing to my mind than a good family vacation. This is the time where I can spend quality time with my DH and son without worrying about the next project dateline. Though we don’t get to travel during this summer, I’ll be planning for our year end trip once the projects are over.

Many individuals mistakenly believe that many islands located in Caribbean are only for couples looking to schedule a romantic vacation. The Caribbean islands are known for its romantic environment and atmosphere; however, the island is not just limited to those looking to experience a romantic getaway. In fact, there are a number of ‘family friendly’ activities that you and your children may find exciting.

The good news for families is that there are a number of popular all inclusive resorts resorts that are designed with adults and children in mind. In general, different resorts offer different on site activities, facilities, and services. The Caribbean has lots of great resorts to choose from, including the all inclusive ones in Negril, Jamaica, Brazil, Curacao and Bahamas.
