I wish my boyfriend could experience the culinary delights of Asian cuisine for himself - from the crunchy textures of tempura to the unique flavor of robatayaki to the sweetness of homemade mochi ice cream. He would love to explore and experience the differences and similarities between the habits and lifestyles of Asian countries, to try some of the traditional dishes and find out what kind of culture has been created from this unique geographical location. I also want him to explore all corners of Asian fashion - from classic kimono to modern streetwear. He could have fun finding the right accessories and learn more about the meaning behind the textiles. Finally, he would learn so much from the philosophies of Zen Buddhism, Confucianism and Shintoism and wouldn't be able to resist their wisdom, such as the idea of being present in the moment or the way of striving for excellence. I wish I could be a part of it all with him as his Asian companion!

I wish I could introduce my boyfriend to the culture and customs of the many Asian countries that I have had the pleasure of visiting. He would love to learn about the daily lives of locals in places like the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, and Vietnam - from the markets to the temples, to the friendly smiles in the streets. He would be amazed by the diversity and beauty of the different cultures. He would also be able to observe and appreciate the traditional values that each culture has to offer - like respect and hospitality. I want my boyfriend to be able to learn firsthand about the rich and vibrant cultures of Asia, to witness its spirituality, and feel its warmth.

I want my boyfriend to experience the beauty of the nightlife in some of the most populous cities in the world - from busy Beijing to vibrant Tokyo to the mega-metropolis of Singapore. He could hop from bar to club - dancing and mingling with locals, tasting exotic snacks and drinks along the way. He would be privileged to take in the vibrant colors that come with these cities at night - from sky-high neon signs to romantic lanterns across markets or rivers. He would also be able to have a truly unique experience while exploring some of the ancient cities of China – like Xi'an and Shanghai – and receive a much deeper appreciation for these cities in the near East.

I wish I could take my boyfriend to some of the ancient monuments scattered across Asia. From the beautiful Taj Mahal to the temples of Angkor Wat to the Great Wall of China and many more. He would be able to explore the ancient cities, filled with beautiful architecture and rich culture. We could visit the fine museums and art galleries and he could explore the quaint streets - filled with shops selling traditional goods. It would be amazing to wander around the iconic sites and visit the various temples and shrines while learning about the history of the place.

I would love to take my boyfriend to a traditional Asian market - where the scents, sounds and vibrancy would be something he would be mesmerized by. He would feel a traditional and cultural atmosphere while watching the bustling markets and being able to purchase some amazing local products like exotic fruits, herbal remedies or unique threads. He can learn about the stories and hidden meanings of the different products and crafts. I also want to show him the natural beauty of countries like India and China and the wonders of the great outdoors, from the jungles of Nepal to the rivers of South East Asia.

I want my boyfriend to be able to see the valuable and spiritual philosophies that lie within many of the Asian countries. From the very notion of being present in Buddhism in Tibet to the deeply religious Hinduism in India. He could also experience the holistic and traditional forms of medicine, like Ayurveda. Above all I wish he could understand and appreciate the incredible history and commitment to art that lies within this ancient continent.

I wish I could show my boyfriend the amazing hospitality of Asian people. I experienced it myself in a number of places - like India, Thailand, and Cambodia, and I always felt welcomed. I would love my boyfriend to experience the kindness and warmth of the locals, and the way they always gives you their time and openness. I want him to have a chance to recognize and appreciate such qualities in Asian people - the way they care for others and the way they always put the community before themselves.

I wish my boyfriend would witness the dedication of the pagodas that are found in so many Asian countries - like they have been unchanged for centuries. He would be able to appreciate the peacefulness of these places and gain spiritual insight in their philosophy and teachings. He could also be fascinated by China’s Forbidden City, explore the Ankgor Wat temple in Cambodia, or visit the Great Mosque of Djenne in Mali. I want him to appreciate the commitment and resilience of people in Asia, and their relentless passion for culture and history.
