Do you know Zach King? He's probably the biggest magic/illusion content creator in the world. I was randomly walking on Times Square and saw a gathering of people. Decided to see what's up, and it's Zach King filming a video! So cool to see him in person and in action as I've been a fan of his videos.

The 3rd stop on my Turkish Riviera road trip is Marmaris. 🇹🇷

First time trying Northeastern Iron Pot Stew and it was delicious!

Similar to hot pot, iron pot stew has assorted ingredients in an massive wok to be cooked together. Unlike hot pot where you boil the ingredients in a pot of soup, iron pot is slow-cooked on low heat. I think it was 20 minutes that we had to wait after the pot (at the center) was closed with a wooden lid.

📍 Happy Valley Village

Theme Parks will never be the same again! 🎉

In my latest video, I take you to the 3-hour VIP Red Carpet experience at Universal Studios Hollywood where this popular LA attraction shut down for us with exclusive access to unlimited rides with no lines, food & drinks, and all the character meet & greet. 😱

Of course, the first thing I did was bee line to Super Nintendo World, riding Mario Kart, meeting Mario & Luigi, tasting of Toadstool Cafe and playing some of the hidden games.

And for the rest of the 3 hours, I also explored Transformers, The Mummy, Jurassic World, Springfield, Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Minion Land.

Unlimited games for 75 minutes ($28.49 per person). Great for up to groups of 5. #travel #mississauga #activate 📍 Activate Visit Mississauga

SURFS UP 🏄‍♂️ Have you tried surfing? I find surfing really cool to watch but I know I'll never be able to do it myself. Stand up paddleboarding is the closest I can do, and that was already very hard for me. 🙃 #travel #losangeles #california #vacation #surfing

Would you line up for FREE In-N-Out Burger? 🍔 When In-N-Out sets up a truck at IPW LA with free burgers, expect long lines! Luckily the two times I went, they were just about to open so I was one of the first in line. I wouldn't have bothered had it been the crazy line that formed after. #travel #foodie #losangeles #burgers

✨ The hype is real with this magical experience! ❤️ The scary part was it almost didn't happen. I went during their winter season and, on my flight day when we were already at the takeoff site, they told us we have to wait because it's not sure yet if we can fly. Hot air balloons weren't allowed to fly for the past 12 days because of weather, and we're waiting for the aviation authority to give the go ahead. We waited and waited, and sunrise already passed. Luckily, we saw the crew starting to get off the truck and unpack... And away we flew! 😍 So grateful for this experience. I was really so lucky during my time in Cappadocia. Travel details: I did the Hot Air Balloon Ride in Cappadocia thru Royal Balloon Queen Plus Flight. Price was 160 Euro for 60 minutes. Hotel transfer included (I was packed up 6:05am). Came with complimentary light breakfast before the flight. Champagne celebration post-flight. 🍾 Some free souvenirs to take home and a medal. 🏅 Watch the full vlog on my entire experience from pick-up to drop-off with review, travel tips and more on YT: https://bit.ly/CappadociaHotAirBalloonVlog
