마치 당신이 영원히 살면 마치 당신이 오늘 죽는 것처럼 삽니다.
"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'' die today." - a famous Chinese proverb.
Hello my Steemian friends! Summer has ended and rainy season is here! It's been raining here in the island for few days. So far it is my favourite season of the year.
It's the best time to snuggle and hug your pillow and wear those socks and sweaters during the night before sleep. I love the sound of the rain coz it's very meditative, relaxing and so soothing.

And today since it's cold here, I wanted to make a comfort dish. I bought this fish from one of our neighbors who's a fisherman here in the village.
It's so cheap unlike the ones I usually bought from the city market in which the price is crazy almost 4x than this. I was so excited to make a steamed fish since this fish is so fresh from the ocean and also it's super healthy and organic.

I've been loving the island life since last month I got here. It' so amazing to experience a different kind of living away from the traffic, cars and busy people.
This island is like a paradise. Blue skies, green water, tall trees, the smell of the ocean breeze, and the fresh produce of poultries and vegies are just amazing! The people here live a very simple life. Mostly they're fishermen, or market vendors, vehicle drivers and some are tourist guides.
You can see some tourists visiting the Island experiencing its wonders. Life here is way different. This is so far the most relaxing place I've ever been. Glad I spent time on vacation here with my fam.
So much for the island talking, let's jump in to the recipe!

I have to be honest with you guys. I don't really call it vain but I love watching my food videos. It feels like a meditation for me. It is basically the sound and art in the kitchen. The sound of the fork, the spoon, the knife, the cutting board, the water, the mixing, the squeezing, the blending and everything in it sounds like in a grand symphony: a kitchen live music. For me, it is just sooo soothing. It's the reason why I put audio on my videos so you guys can experience a different way to watch too. So I wanna share with you some of videos here:
