Taj President Mumbai














The lobby is quite modern, but the room is very old. Staff are very nice. Excellent Service!!

Business Trip to Mumbai

This is my second business trip to Mumbai. The weahter is really humid in Mumbai at this season. I'm ready for all of the adventures.....

懷著戒慎恐懼的心情, 我再次出發到印度孟買出差, 希望此行在不生病的情況下, 能達成減重2公斤的目標, 我有信心.....一週無間斷的印度菜定可助我順利達陣

從香港飛往孟買的途中, 身旁坐的是位從事飯店設計的中年香港男子, 他未曾到過印度, 非常恐懼這次的旅行, 出發前還徵求醫生的建議, 打了各式預防針, 吃了預防瘧疾的藥, 怕被蚊蟲咬, 還把自己全身包的密不透風, 雖然當地氣溫高達36 - 40, 他看到我一身輕便的夏季裝扮, 感到很不可思議

當我知道國泰航空會降落在孟買五月底才啟用的新國際航廈, 我真的有說不出的高興, 舊航站的椅子不夠,距離廁所又遠,我上次所經歷的痛苦, 畢生難忘......但我踏出機艙時, 發現這個新航站只是個有牆和燈光的大型工地,所幸椅子還蠻多的,嗆鼻的殺蟲劑味道和舊航站完全一樣

Welcome To Incredible India!!!

印度落實階級制度的精神連機場都看的到, 搭乘頭等艙和商務艙的客人有特別的海關通道,提領行李也有特別的區塊和指標, 感謝必治妥公司, 我很慶幸自己能享受這些尊榮

出機場後, 那可怕的溼熱空氣真的快把我擊垮了!!!

First Time DJ @ Tanguisimo




I really enjoyed the milonga at Tanguisimo tonight. Not because I was the DJ, but the cozy atmosphere. I haven't gone out for tango dancing on the weekdays for a long time. It's actually a good idea to relax myself after working whole day .
好喜歡週三舞會的氣氛, 沒有過多的舞者擁擠在舞池, 人與人間的距離好像拉的更近, 在忙碌工作一天後, 透過探戈舞蹈適度地解放自己, 真是不錯的選擇, 我以後一定會常來這個舞會

Twin Towers @ Kuala Lumpur







Manicure & Pedicure @ Kuala Lumpur

My colleague Minori and I found the beauty salon from a Japanese tour guide. It's located at KLCC. Most of guests here are Japanese and Caucasian. The shop is owned by a family. We are very satisfied with their service for manicure & pedicure. Definitely worth a try....

Kula Lumpur Tango Festival

Venue : Fragipani
Address : 25 Changkat Bukit Bintang
Tel : 60-3-2144-3001










After dinner with my boss and colleagues. I'm ready to attend the tango festival in Kuala Lumpur. CH is my colleague from Malaysia, she was so nice and offered me a ride to the tango place. The TRAFFIC was so bad in the city. CH had some problems to find the place even if we had the address. Then CH made a couple of phone calls to ask for directions, but we still couldn't find the place after 1.5 hours.
So I decided to call a taxi. Guess what? It took me only 3 minutes to find the place by paying RM5. ^_^
和同事用完餐後,我就迫不及待地趕往探戈舞會
我的馬來西亞同事很熱心地開車載我到舞會地點,雖然我們有地址,也打電話和舉辦舞會的餐廳通電話詢問如何到達,花了1.5小時卻仍找不到, 最後我還是花了5元馬幣搭計程車才找到
在此地,可能有1/4以上的舞者是外國人,來參與探戈節的人大多是來自印尼,新加坡...參加的人數不多, 好舞者也不多, 可是氣氛是非常融洽而和善的
和幾位當地只學1年的初學者跳, 發現台北的初學者程度還真不錯...............

Tango Festival @ Kuala Lumpur

I was quite upset about not being able to Lisbon Tango Festival due to the coming business trip to Kula Lumpur. I didn't notice that there is a tango festival in KL during my visit until now!! Hahaha...I still can attend a tango festival in Malaysia. Hopefully I can get some good dances at the milonga.

計畫成行的里斯本探戈節之旅因為要去吉隆坡出差而破局,沒想到.沒想到......在同一時間,吉隆坡居然也有探戈節, 上帝還是眷顧我的, 雖然明知吉隆坡的舞者一定無法和歐洲的舞者媲美, 我還是開心地不得了, 有種失而復得的喜悅 !!

Milonga @ Tango Bang in Shanghai









One of my tango dreams is to have my own tango place. Not sure if I can have enuogh money and time to make it happen in the future!!! I'm so proud of Vivan & Charles who opened such a nice tango bar in Shanghai. Wish them a big success....
Address : 上海浦東新區浦東大道545號1樓(裕景大飯店商舖)
Contact Information : Vivian Yeh 1367-166-7388
Charles Chiu 1367-168-7388
看到Vivian和Charles大手筆的投資這個探戈酒吧,真替她們感到驕傲,雖然上海現在的探戈舞技和台北有相當大的一段差距, 相信在她們的耕耘下,一定會開花結果的

Dinner @ 花家怡園 in Beijing

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Beijing. Both food and beer are very good.
花家怡園是一座四合院式的餐廳,可充分顯現出老北京的宅門特色,我個人非常喜歡這裡的菜餚,啤酒更是不可錯過的絕佳選擇,席間還有老翁獻唱,氣氛十分地熱鬧
