The Credits: Meet John Monoon, The Coolest Artist In Chiang Mai
I rounded the corner of Thae Pae Rd Soi 3 onto Loi Kroh Rd in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and it was there that it happened. I was drawn into The John Gallery, and I suddenly became Alice falling down the rabbit hole. I found myself in a wonderland of trippy colors, rock lyrics, meteor showers, temples, sunsets and quotes that seemed especially meant for me. For the first ten minutes, I was bizarrely alone in the shop, and I couldn’t help but be entranced. I have always loved quotes. I had a history teacher who instilled that love in me. Every day, that teacher would write a new quote on…

One Night In Bangkok At The Millennium Hilton
I had one night in Bangkok and that one night was made a memorable one by the Millennium Hilton hotel. I was greeted with extreme friendliness and attentiveness before I could even step out of the taxi I arrived in. I stayed in the King Executive Suite at the Millennium Hilton, and it felt like pure luxury from the moment I walked in the room. A spectacular panoramic view of Bangkok and the Chao Praya river greeted me while the hotel’s signature wild mint scent floated across my room from the diffuser. The huge desk was perfect for getting some work done along with the capsule coffee maker that came…

Koh Rong Samloem-The Most Relaxing Place On Earth
There will come a time when all the bad news of this world, all the sadness, and all the pain will become too much. The routine of everyday life will either overwhelm you or bore you or both. The unanswered emails, unreturned phone calls, dirty laundry, and things on the to-do list will pile up, so that it becomes unfathomable that you will ever get through them all. You may have forgotten who you are in the midst of it. You start to think that this is your life. The “doer” becomes your identity. The smallest things set you off, stress you out. You’ve forgotten how to be grateful. You don’t…

Norwegian Air Review: How My Dreamliner Experience Turned Into A Nightmare
I hate having to write bad reviews, but my Norwegian Air experience was a complete nightmare, and I feel like I owe it to my readers to warn them about flying with Norwegian Air. What especially convinced me that this Norwegian Air review needed to be written was finding out about the many other complaints flooding in about Norwegian Air. More than 200 complaints have been registered with the Transport Complaints Board alone. The board says they have never seen this scope of complaints in a single case. I have read about everything from double-billed credit cards, a loss of air-conditioning on International flights, long delays, and false advertising. As if that’s not enough, there’s even…
