We love traveling in Asia! That’s why we have returned to Japan to live for another few years. We’ve been to Japan numerous times, but of course we’ve done the bulk of our Japan travels during the years that we’ve lived here. In total, we’ve lived in Japan 4 years, and we’re still going.
We’ve also lived in South Korea. We lived there for three years, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Mostly what we love about living in Asia it is such a large area and we are closer to so many countries, so we are ready to hop on a plane to explore them.
We have almost visited half of the countries in Asia, as we’ve been to 21 out of 47. Needless to say there is a lot more to do. Please click on the links below to see some of our photos and read some of our tales of adventure.
A friendly goat greets us as we pull up to a ger (yurt) in the back-country of Mongolia.
Brunei Darussalam
We didn’t spend much time in this tiny country, but we as we were traveling on the island of Borneo, who could pass up the chance. Check out what we did for the 36 hours we were there.
Cambodia
On a two week trip to Southeast Asia, we traveled around Vietnam and Cambodia. Our main reason for going was to see the world heritage site, Angor Wat.
China
We’ve been to China twice and certainly plan on going again. There’s so much to do and see. Checking off walking on the Great Wall is something that we’ll never forget. Beijing is great, but our favorite city is Xian, because we had the most amazing time with some locals there.
Hong Kong
One of the best places to start your Asian travels, Hong Kong is such a great mix of Chinese and British. It’s easy to navigate, but it has that Asian chaotic feel at the same time. A couple of our best memories were visiting the Wishing Tree Temple and a real taxi scare.

Japan’s temples are serene, peaceful, and beautiful at all times of the year. Pictured is the cleansing station everyone must stop at before entering the temple.
