Welcome to “FTW! Food, Travel, and Whatevs”—your go-to for food reviews, travel tales, and a sprinkle of whatever catches my fancy. From fool-proof recipes to tales of my travels around the Philippines, this blog is my little corner of the internet where I share my passions and quirks.

Episode 3 of Kaohsiung Calm & Taipei Lights is up! 🇹🇼✨

This one is basically: ⛴️ ferry rides 🌊 coastal views 🗼 lighthouse exploring ☕ coffee stops 🦑 seafood lunch 🚇 solo train-hopping 🥹 some much-needed me time 😂 and discovering the bike rentals WAY too late.

Sometimes you can be having a great trip and still have a heavy day. 💛

“It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn.”

– Anthony Bourdain
