A harsh but beautiful wildlife haven at the bottom of the world – Interview with Vicki Foster, Government Officer of South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands

October 4, 2021 by Teh Chin Liang2 Comments

My mobile phone buzzed with an email alert, jolting me out of my reverie. It was from Vicki Foster. “As I am writing this, I am looking out of my window across the bay to 2,000-meter mountains rising to snowy peaks. There is a male elephant seal trumpeting his arrival to the beach with his massive nose." Interviewing Vicki was like sitting down in from of a TV and flipping the channel to National Geographic Network. She shared her story with … [Read more...]

Horror Talk with Rich Ragsdale – Director, Composer, Producer and Writer

September 19, 2021 by Teh Chin LiangLeave a Comment

“Ghost House” is one of the best horror movies I have seen in a long time. The horror elements are so original and raw  - the jump scare, the atmosphere, the soundtrack etc, everything is done completely right. The movie does not throw in excessive unnecessary special effects or follow the Hollywood’s formulaic scare tactics. It hit me in a way that most horror flicks hadn’t. I remember when the movie was over, I immediately pulled out my phone … [Read more...]

In 2018, a group of young Thai football players and their coach found themselves stranded in the flooded Tham Luang cave in northern Thailand. The rescue mission that involved countless divers, military personnel and volunteers from many countries took over 2 weeks to safely pull every one of them out of the cave. The incident once sent a shock wave reverberating around the world. A year later, this nail-biting rescue event was made into a … [Read more...]

See, Shop, Eat in Los Angeles – Insider’s Guide by Daniel Will Harris

July 27, 2021 by Teh Chin LiangLeave a Comment

When most people think of LA, the very first thing that comes into mind is Hollywood and celebrities. That is a stereotypical way to sum up LA because Hollywood is actually a very small part of a larger whole. As an actor, Daniel Will Harris has been in many movie studios. If you are visiting from out of state or abroad, Daniel recommends Warner Brothers Studio Tour.  Unlike Universal, which is literally a theme park with very loud buses that … [Read more...]

Escape to Bodega Bay

April 13, 2021 by Angela Matano2 Comments

Moving from Los Angeles to the tiny town of Mendocino (population 855) in the middle of a pandemic turned out to be one of the most unusual decisions I have ever made. The natural beauty and tranquility act like a balm to the world’s troubles (politics! fires!), but, it should come as little surprise, meeting people while masked up and social distancing has proven difficult. On the other hand, as the world opens up a bit, traveling in both … [Read more...]

Rhyolite, Nevada – September 2020

September 1, 2020 by DaveLeave a Comment

This former mining, now ghost town was founded in 1905 with the discovery of gold in quartz by several miners. Its development was as quick as its bust. Its heyday only lasted for about 5 short years before the mines began to be tapped out and residents moved elsewhere. During its peak this was a formidable community of over 7,000 people with several railroad spurs going to town, some 50 saloons, nearly 20 hotels, numerous restaurants, the … [Read more...]
