7th Venezuelan Week in Malaysia

I was reading through the speech by Ambassador of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to Malaysia from a leaflet, where a line caught my eyes which stated "In Venezuela, one of our popular beliefs is that "7" is a lucky number." Well, I second that because I myself love the number 7, was born in the month of July and also this very month, I attended 2 big events celebrating the lucky number 7, which included Wondermilk's 7th Cuppa Cakes Show & just 7 days ago (7 again?!! what coincidence!)...the 7th Venezuelan Week in Malaysia. So, 7 is indeed a lucky number! ;)


The launch of the Venezuelan's Gastronomic Festival was held on the 16 April 2012 at Renaissance Hotel. Hosted by The Embassy of the Bolivarian Republic of Venzuela in Malaysia, the event was attended by distinguished guests, invited print media and bloggers. 


In collaboration with Renaissance Hotel, they had exclusively invited Venezuela's very own food consultant and food writer, Chef Carmen Rawstron to showcase the traditional and specialty of Venezuelan cuisine and culture.

Europe Trip 2011 (Part III)

Finally!!!...my long lost post on Paris, France.

;S

Refreshing you abit about my trip last year, it was a 3 weeks Europe trip travelled in May & it was surreal-awesome holiday I say. Right this minute, I can actually, finally say, I've been to London-Scotland-Paris already. hehe...lucky-double happiness kan kan?!! I missed my chance of going to London back in 2005 and it's even better when I took that unpaid leave just to be with my parents touring here there for 3 tiring weeks. haha..Anyway, here's my last post and the ending of my Europe trip back in 2011. Hope these chosen photos would thrill you as much as they'd thrilled me while I snapped them back then. =)

PARIS

I was thrilled with the sight of the tower from the train!

Disneyland for first timer like me was indeed exciting!
Especially when that famous Disney Castle came into view....Yeehaaaaa!





Donald Duck, my fave all time Disney cartoon character!







This ride shown above actually spoilt my whole day after that.
Headache like crazy! Hmph!



Notredam Cathedral







Yup, that's the Europe trip. Very touristy indeed lah.
