Hao, Lisa and Albert went to the @currumbin_wildlife_sanctuary where it is the only place you can hold a koala bear. Nowhere in Australia can you do this except in the Gold Coast and Lisa said it was very heavy and stinky In other cities you can just take a photo beside.
What people do in the Gold Coast but we didn’t do any this trip I looked at almost all the brochures and catalogs and what intrigued me the most were the glowing worms It is a lot of outdoor activities including rainforests and mountains. And outlet store shopping!! #currumbinwildlifepark#h2hgoldcoast #h2hanimals#h2hphotography

It’s winter in Australia now so the water is cold and the waves a bit strong. But it is a beautiful stroll on the beach because its 21 degrees and sunny From the hotel @sheratongrandgoldcoastthere’s a gate to access the beach and we are located in a more secluded and isolated part. The lifeguard puts flags where you can swim and here you will see its a very small part only. Beautiful Gold Coast #goldcoastaustralia#h2hgoldcoast
We drove an hour from Brisbane to get to the Gold Coast. The EO event was canceled and so we are stuck here Our hotel @sheratongrandgoldcoast is the only resort here with a beachfront #sheratongrandmirage #h2hgoldcoast




















From our hotel lobby there is a bridge that connects to a mall @marinamirage and the marina where there are restaurants and shops. On the bridge and across the street of @sheratongrandgoldcoast is the @palazzoversace These are the 2 most recommended by friends ? #palazzoversacegoldcoast#h2hgoldcoast #h2haccomodation

During Girls Trek, this lady sat beside me in the van to our trek and it was instant friendship 🙂 She started out by telling me she was a Vietnamese refugee and for 7 days in the boat she had no food & water but survived and landed in Palawan ( Philippines ). She lived there in the refugee camp for a year til she was sponsored by a relative to go to the USA. Her husband was a childhood friend & their parents who were friends told them to take care of each other. That was in 1988. Hao and Lisa Lam have been married for 25 years & live in Seattle. Hao wrote a book and it is now available in Amazon. Though I know quite a bit, i am excited to read more and get to know them more personally. Hao is scared to go back to the Philippines but we are changing that. 🙂 Super LOVE this couple instantly – we are so alike in so many many ways. Spine problem :-O , exercise routine Water therapy, ages of kids 23 and 19 and 22 and 18, two boys, almost the same wedding anniv -25th last year and this year for us, and same itinerary in Australia. They now are successful with their own tutoring company called @bestinclass_edu They have 60 all over the USA and growing. It not only tutors Math but reading and writing. What an amazing couple who came from bad to worse and now are the BEST in class! Hao in fact is such a humble and generous person giving his time to help and mentor entrepreneurs in EO @entrepreneursorg He told me it’s his way of giving back since many have helped him get to where he is now. Lisa loves EO too and now is an active spouse. Even their son Albert is in NextGen EO – so they are an EO family #entrepreneursorganisation#h2hpeople #h2heo #h2heoabf#h2hgivingback #h2heducation

Congratulations Malvin Ang ( owner) @malvinang Takuma Ishikawa (Founder) and
Koga Akihiko, Franchisor of @menyakokoroph It opened last July 7 at Uptown BGC 3rd floor. Mazesoba, literally translated as mixed noodle – soupless ramen. Japanese Chef Takuma Ishikawa created KOKORO mazesoba in Tokyo Japan in 2013. Soon Mazesoba becomes extremely popular in Japan and scattered in major Japanese cities, especially in Tokyo where KOKORO brand founder Takuma Ishikawa started his business and won the Best 2014 Mazesoba Award in Japan. Over the years, many tried to imitate the taste but nothing tastes as good as the origin of mazesoba by Chef Takuma. ( Website) #menyakokoroph#japanbestmazesoba
At @menyakokoroph While everyone was filming the young and handsome chef, I made sure I didn’t forget to take the ramen too . “Japanese Chef Takuma Ishikawa created KOKORO mazesoba in Tokyo Japan in 2013.
