summer days...

So Hanoi summer days have started with some rains, which helped a great deal to cool the heat down a little bit. I really do enjoy a "ca phe sua da" (vietnamese milky iced coffee). I purchased some painting papers, pens and drawing supplies, and even a small palette of watercolor to draw and pass sometimes. 

we're applying for visa to europe, hopefully that will be done soon. Unfortunately there is some Mers viruses going around in Korea and some countries similarly to sars. This put me off traveling for a bit, but i really really do eant to be able to travel to europe. Bry and I have never been there, and i'm sooooo excited that we have a chance to go soon. So please let the virus be over soon... so we can all safely go travel.

Bry turned the big master bedroom into our little living room/study/entertainment room, and we're loving it. I have a hugr window with a beautiful view, he has his big TV to watch football, we have a cozy room with airconditioning to cool off and chillax during this summer. I'm with a book, or drawing, or playing with laptop while he watches football or play on his ipad.. this makes a wonderful relaxing evening for both of us. 

tea

just ice tea this morning. less guilt. lol. 

Phu My Hung in the morning is pretty chillax. love it.

morning

usual morning. 

does it count if i just order, take pic and not drink it? :)) am kind of scared of how many calories are in a caramel macchiato?

I love phu my hung most as a living area in the whole of vietnam. so beautiful!! spacious and greens

at mom's

yep, a few skincares products i've brought with me to hcm city this time. The huge Sisley toner is actually my mom's - since my own toner was also big and took up too much space in my skincare/makeup bag. 

Apart from that, a few skincare creams and what not, which I have bought from my last trip to my dermatologist.

I love how mom's bathroom always look so much better than my own in Hanoi :( well generally our place in hanoi is in desperate need for sorting out. but we may not be living there for so long - so hubby and I kept putting off cleaning. 

home is the best

yes being home is the bomb!!

grandma's homecooked. yay. and of course the special pink red grapefruits.
