Ah, pictures. They add colors to every story and give an insight to what’s happening around us, and yet, at the very same time, they capture a moment and story altogether! While most writers prefer to go for stock pictures and writing about destinations based off facts and such, I prefer to be a photojournalist…
Colorful Kansai – Day 1
Japan in January is a cold affair – usually there’s snow, but for this year, there wasn’t much. The Kansai region in particular, had a temperature range of 1 – 3 degrees, and this was considered warm by their standards. Of course, for someone coming from a tropical climate, this is cold – and you can feel…
Suggestions for trips to Melbourne
My 3D/2N trip (which is essentially a 2D/2N trip really) was a way too short experience in Melbourne. In my opinion, it would be good to spend at least 4D/3N over in Melbourne, or even longer, given how the 7+hrs long flight from Singapore to the place itself will wear you out even before your…
Winter in July [Melbourne – Day 2]
Bright and early – where to shall I go? Most naturally, it was to Queen Victoria Market, where the freshest catch and produce can easily be found throughout the grounds. Divided into the lower market (fresh produce) and the upper market (specialty shopping), the lower market is open as early as 6am in the morning while…
Winter in July [Melbourne – Day 1]
Australia is a destination that most people have listed on their travel plans these days, given how the exchange rate is much more favorable as compared to the past and how it’s easy getting around be it by car should you know how to drive, or by public transport even. Melbourne, as it is, is…
Suggestions for trips to Pahang
A 7D/6N trip might be too hectic or long for those with limited off-days, so if there’s a long weekend coming up (3D/2N), here are some suggestions that I have for you based on the activities that I did! Depending on if it’s nature or adventure or a mixture of both that you seek, and dependent on…
MEGA FAM Trip to Pahang! [Day 6 & 7]
The day we bid farewell to Pahang and head back to KL. =( After a downpour in the middle of the night, the air was extremely fresh and clean in the morning. Since transporting our luggage will take 2 hours and more, we had to leave them out at 7am (we left them out at…
MEGA FAM Trip to Pahang! [Day 5]
Just realized I forgot to up a picture of my lodgings for the night: Tada! It’s a chalet with 2 single beds! The room is slightly dark even with all the lights on, and lizards roam freely on the ceiling. That aside, it’s a rather ok lodging, but for ladies, I would recommend staying together as…
MEGA FAM Trip to Pahang! [Day 3 & 4]
After breakfast, we bade farewell to the city of KL and headed off for the township of Bentong to Tanah Aina Farrah Soraya Resort. Overall, the journey took about 2.5hours in total. If you recall from my previous post, there was packing involved for us the previous night – reason being our next destination is…
MEGA FAM to Pahang! [Day 2]
After a relaxing first night, I got up early at 5.45am the next time, since we were all given a shirt to wear for the day and there were creases all over, hence I got to ironing it for wear for the day. The streets below were already bustling with activity, and I kinda regretted…
MEGA Fam Trip to Pahang! [Day 1]
Talk about Malaysia, and most of us will groan – being a metropolis, what’s else is there to be offered by the country that is different from other bustling cities? Well, for 7D/6N just 2 weeks ago, I ended up seeing the country from a different point of view – one which city dwellers would…
[Singapore] JAPAN THEATER – Produced and headlined by Ebizo Ichikawa XI @ Marina Bay Sands, Mastercard Theatres
As a child, I grew up fascinated with traditional performances. Back in those days (way before the Internet), the empty plots of land near my house would have stages set up for performances ever so often, ranging from Chinese traditional operas, to Malay shadow puppet performances, and my parents would always make it a point…
