I tried wood seal carving!

  Hold on to your space seats, because the story time U.F.O. is back at it again, zapping fresh stories straight from the mothership into your inbox! 🛸 If you’ve been following my blog or my ShachemLieuw YouTube channel for a while, you probably already know I’ve been deep-diving into learning Mandarin and exploring more about my Chinese heritage. Well, my latest mission involved signing up for a wood seal carving class, and I liked it so much that I’ve officially decided to purchase a wood seal carving kit and turn this into a permanent hobby! 🧰✍️ Fun plot twist: we didn't actually work with real wood. We got to practice on erasers! But it was still super fun learning all the traditional carving techniques. (For those wondering, the Chinese carving knife used for this is called an intou or bidao —often referred to as an iron pen or a graver!) The class went pretty in-depth about the history of seal carving in China. Historically, seals (or chops) served as powerful credential...

"Shachem Lieuw in Tian You Latour"



Hello, my dearest Story Time friends from around the world! 🌎💓 I am back with a new Story Time episode right here in Suriname, the beating heart of the Amazon rainforest. As I said, I have many adventures to share with you. I haven't even shared half of the content I collected yet. Outside of blogging, I live quite a hectic life in tropical Suriname. It is what it is when you wear the crown the way I do.👑♕♛ In today's Story Time, I'm taking you on another Boba adventure. The milk tea trend has swept over Suriname for a long time. I've written about other Boba locations in Suriname before. Make sure you subscribe to my Story Time blog when you see that Story Time U.F.O. pop-up on your screen. 👽👾That way, you'll be the first to get my adventures zapped to your inbox.📧📬 One of the most popular milk tea shops in Suriname is Tian You. Their locations are popping up everywhere. As you can notice from my other blog articles. Latour is a popular food and snack spot in Suriname. The entire street is essentially lined with popular food stands, restaurants, stores, snack stalls, and BBQ stands, among other establishments. It doesn't matter what you're craving; you're most likely to find something to eat throughout the day and late at night in this part of the country.😋🍲🥘🥫 If you're a traveling foodie in Suriname, I recommend visiting the area and trying the local food, street food, and the Surinamese version of junk food. It's okay, if you burn off the calories after your vacation, we won't tell anyone.😅😂😎😜

"Tian You Panda mascot"
The Tian You Store in Latour is nice and clean. To our luck, when we walked inside, it wasn't so busy. They had a cute, giant inflatable panda balloon with their logo on it. I am guessing the Tian You Panda is their mascot. When we walked in, we gave the lady at the counter our order and waited for a short while. The staff was nice and friendly. I like the fact that you have a nice view of the busy street life of Latour through the glass window. 

" White rabbit and Tiramisu milk tea with boba and jelly from Tian You Latour"


We ordered a frozen white rabbit milkshake with boba and some jelly. This is one of Tian You's most popular flavors. I loved it, it was better than the one I tasted from Tian You Kwarasan. We also got a Tiramisu milkshake with boba. That one was delicious, I'd recommend it to coffee lovers!😆🥴  I made a video of my visit to Tian You Latour for you guys. You can find their boba milk tea menu in the video. I hope you enjoy it. Until next time, right here at Story Time. 💖
