India vs China

Published by under Personal,Travel,Travelogues

Today we went to an Indian restaurant here in Chengdu, called Tandoor. It was really great – they were very friendly (the managers come from Delhi), and impressed with our fluent Hindi. And the food? the best we had so far in Chengdu – great Indian food! Dal Makhani, Palak Paneer, Samosas… It got me [...]

Baby photographer

I used to like taking photos during my travels… mostly landscape – beautiful scenes, you know what I’m talking about. I meant, pictures of Michal and friends we met on the way is nice, but it wasn’t really exciting for me. But now I’m mostly taking photos of Abigail. Suddenly a nice lake or building [...]

2.5 weeks – updates from Chengdu

I can’t believe it’s only been two weeks (okay, two and a half) since we left for China. It seems like it’s been months. The flights were better than expected, Beijing was rather annoying, and Chengdu is a strange mixture between India and Tel-Aviv. I like it here Abigail is behaving great – she’s getting [...]

First few days in China

We landed in Beijing 3 days ago, and are on the flight to Chengdu now. The flight to Beijing was actually rather good – much better than we thought. Abigail was great. She’s actually behaving great in China. Everybody here is charmed by her – and wants to play with her, talk to her and [...]

Chengdu – here we come

Published by under Photographs,Travelogues

So, tonight we’re (finally) flying to Chengdu… Hopefully for 4 months, we’ll see how we like it over there. Michal will practice Chinese Medicine, I’ll look after Abigail and continue to blog. It’s amazing how much more difficult it is to pack with a child. We carry about 3 times as much weight as we [...]

Back from Switzerland…

Well, we’re back. We had a wonderful time! We stayed in Grindelwald almost the entire trip (12 days in all) and hiked up and down the mountains. That place is so beautiful. Here’s a few photos, but don’t worry – I’ll write a travelogue soon… Oh… and a happy new year to all

Off to swizterland…

Published by under Personal,Travel,Travelogues

We’re going on a short vacation to Switzerland. We plan to be in the ‘mountains’ most of the time (starting in Grindelwald), doing some day walks and maybe even a longer trek. It all depends on the weather I guess, I hope it will be sunny and not too cold.

FaceBook / TripRecord

Facebook (A social-network site) has opened up their site, and introduced the ‘facebook platform’. Basically it’s an API that let’s you write application for facebook. The idea is pretty cool, and there was a lot of press about it. We at TripTouch decided to see what’s what, and wrote a small application called TripRecord. Basically [...]
