Hawaii Guide: Oahu Island


Oahu is beyond any doubt one of my favorite islands to visit in Hawaii due to its impeccable combination of active city life and peaceful island life at the same time.  If the heart of Oahu, Honolulu, offers the buzz of modern vibes, then the northern/eastern shores contrastingly offer the allure of serene island lifestyles.  Every culture can be represented in the island so you can always find something to do all week long and all season long.  Hawaii constantly stays warm and pleasant all year round.  The average temperature during daytime is between 78F ("winter" months) - 88F (summer months).  Nighttime temperature is ranging from 65F-75F.  Long daytime with plentiful of sunshine makes Hawaii an all-season destination for tourists.  If you are seeking a rejuvenating escape, scroll down to see my takes on the places to stay, eat, and do in Oahu, HI!

Strawberry Picking


Since it is now the peak season of strawberries, I decided to drive down to Tanaka Farm today to pick up some fresh strawberries and check out their farmers market.  April is probably the ideal time to harvest strawberries in California.  The moderate temperature with warm sun during daytime and cool air during nighttime is a perfect condition for growing strawberries. For breakfast, I always add fresh berries to my oatmeal, cereal, or crepe.  Strawberries are extremely nutritious fruits.  They are full of Vitamin C, great sources of dietary fiber, and high in antioxidants.  Strawberries are one of my most favourite fruits on earth!

Revisiting San Francisco



As soon as my spring break begun, my friends and I took a road trip from LA to the Bay for a refreshing Easter weekend.  We started driving from early morning, around 8:00 am, and arrived at downtown SF just right afternoon.  After checking in at the Westin Francis, I took a quick shower and I was thrilled to get out of the hotel asap.
