Rotterdam city trip report – Paradise for architecture lovers

I made a trip in Rotterdam. It’s a city used to famous for its harbor and nowadays becomes a paradise for young architectures. It’s modern and with a long history, futuristic architecture, inspired local initiatives such as inner-city canal surfing, a proliferation of art, and a surge of drinking, making it one of the most energetic and vivid cities in Europe.

Popular Peruvian street BBQ snack – Anticuchos

Anticucho, which in Quechua language means cut stew meat, is a popular street food in Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile. It’s a sort of BBQ marinated meat, accompanied with roast potatoes and a type of peanut sauce(I realy LOVE this sauce). The most common one, as shown in the picture above, is made of beef heart (anticuchos de corazón).

在南美洲很多国家,像是秘鲁,玻利维亚,智利,阿根廷,都有一种很受当地人欢迎的平价街边小吃。有点像中国很多老城区差不多有的烤串,通常是腌制过的肉,大部分是牛心,加上土豆和花生酱一起吃,在饭店里这可以是一道菜,也可以是路边的小吃。

Valle de Cocora, Colombia’s Coffee Zone

Been to many areas in Colombia, I believe Cocora Valley is the best place in the whole country of Colombia, despite the fact that coffee zone is becoming more and more touristy. Still you can easily spot the tranquillity there.

To go to the valley, the best base is the town of Salento. You’d better get up early, catch one of those early tuktuk at the central square, tuktuk can get quite full, sometimes you will have to stand at the back of the car, kinda fun though. Trail can be easily done in the morning.
