[Food Diary] Har Mee @ Lim Mee Yoke

My all time favourite, Lam Har Mee at Chao Yang SS2. There are lots of spice sediment that excite your tongue and give a mild-heat feel on your throat.



[Tea Appreciation] Dragon Pearl Jasmine by Harney & Sons

There is a replacement public holiday after Christmas on Sunday. It is a pleasure to have a hi-tea at Attic Brew, SS2 to enjoy the luxury free time provided.



Name : Dragon Pearl Jasmine
Brand : Harney & Sons

Feeling : Light drink with strong jasmine aroma & flavor.

This how Harney describes this tea :
Delight in Dragon Pearl Jasmine tea � a masterpiece from Fuan, China � comprised of little hand rolled tea 'pearls' gently infused with floral essences from jasmine flowers. The tea is a beautiful to look at, and the light colored brew is full of floral and sweet aromas. Kosher.



【爱阅读】给回来的旅行着

蓝白拖。认识这位以旅行为主的台湾心灵励志作家,是在听988的早晨节目时。他到988去被访问也推荐这本新书。他说他已旅行了七年。旅行了这么一段时间,他发现旅行与否或工作与否不重要,最重要的是对生活的态度。

生活不只是一个修行,也是一种态度。

找了这本书好久,终于昨日在Aeon Shah Alam的Popular找着它啦!真想看看一位旅行七年的人,领悟了什么。



书名: 给回来的旅行着
作者: 蓝白拖

开阅时间: 15-Nov-2015
关阅时间: 9-Dec-2016

阅后感言:
有过在新西兰漂泊三个月的我,在阅读这本书的时候,和作者产生了很多的共鸣。比如,作者有说到周杰伦的启发故事,说到J.K.罗琳的付出历程,两个都是我的启发偶像;旅行教会很多人生哲学,时学校不会教到的;自己是自己最大的敌人;先认同,再讨论;世界是一颗磨刀石,会把人磨利;跌跌撞撞是很平常的;先从改变自己开始;经历让书上说学的变得更能明白了;平穷不是因为很少的财富,而是因为很少的经验知识;等等。

它也唤醒了我很多在那次旅行所体验但没有记录或分享的心情与经验。比如,旅行不是越长越好,工作与休息要平衡,生活才会比较精彩;要享受当下,因为时间过了,时刻过了,就再也不回来了;再多的旅行,也会有厌闷的一天,中庸还是需要的;再美的风景,看久了,就会变得普通,重点是能不能持之以很地欣赏它;等等。

就算现在只是瞄一瞄这本书,许多的想法与经验都会被唤醒。已经与这本书不经不觉地产生了共鸣。如果你也是旅行者,你一定会爱上这本书。就像这书名所说的,给回来的旅行者。

注:蓝白拖有再说中这两个词,旅行与旅游。根据维基百科的定义,旅行的重点在”旅途”,旅游的重点在“目的地”。你是哪个呢?我会比较喜欢旅行,因为可以体验得更多。共勉之。
