I literally MISSED the nightlife in Spain when I went there in 2018. My luggage was missing, I had no idea when it would turn up. As I had to be conscious of my spending for the next 9 days, I swallowed my dream of dancing with an attractive señor in a Spanish bar. Adiós! :'( Speaking about Spain and Latin songs, I’ve been stuck at home for almost a month and it starts to take a toll on me emotionally. I . need . to . spice up this bedroom-living room-balcony-mini market routine! So, I often listen to Latin songs because they have catchy, sensual beats. They put colour…

Confessions of a Crossdresser
Buon giorno! I hope everyone had a great weekend! I went to Bali for four days and returned to KL in a flowery mood. It was a great, lovely short trip with my boyfriend. As you can see from the cover photo, we have a huge age gap. A friend asks me, “Are you for real?” haha… But hey! Age is just a number. We don’t get to choose who the heart wants. It just happens… You can deny or mask the truth, but you can’t lie to yourself. And then, out of a sudden, this friend of mine makes a shocking confession. “Clara… I’m a crossdresser.” The Heartbreaking, Beautiful…

Love Travelling to Jogjakarta? You May Want to Send Your Kids to Study There, Here’s Why
Yes, I skipped a blog post last week. Chinese New Year season made me embrace the art of doing nothing – except nibbling some cookies, hehe! This week my mind takes me back to good ol’ school days in Jogjakarta. I spent two years there separated from my family and boy, I thanked my parents for it! Jogjakarta, Yogyakarta or Jogja is a small city in Indonesia located on the island of Java. If you’ve travelled there, you will know the city for its cultural heritage, Borobudur Temple, Mount Merapi and Malioboro Street. But the locals know the city better than Kota Pelajar aka the City of Students. Children from…

Transiting in Malaysia? Here’s Your 1 Day Kuala Lumpur Express Travel Itinerary
What would you do if you or someone you know have only one day to spend in Kuala Lumpur aka KL, Malaysia and want to experience the rich culture? Whether you’re transiting or just want to have a crash trip in KL, I’ve crafted this post as your 1 Day Kuala Lumpur Express Travel Itinerary.

The whole idea of being a tour guide in a city where I’ve lived in for more than 10 years is inspired…

I Made Chiang Mai as My First Thailand Trip… Though It May Be Unethical
A lot of people rave about Thailand, especially Bangkok and its paradise islands. I had enough of people telling me that I should go to Thailand, so I did, in 2018. However, instead of Bangkok or Hua Hin (the Thai Santorini-style destination), I chose Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai as my first Thailand trip. I know, I know. I will visit Bangkok one day, don’t worry. But if you haven’t travelled to Chiang Mai, now I’m telling you that you should :p I was browsing Thailand tour packages when I found the Chiang Mai trip. And the main reason that tickled my wanderlust soul was the Long Neck Tribe Village.…

The Investment That You May Overlook
What if I tell you that you can print money, legally? Your body is the machine, and you’re trading your energy, time and health for every batch of dollar, euro, or ringgit that you print. You’ll be fully investing yourself in the process. Will you sacrifice most of your energy, time and health to do it? Some people may do so because they’re worried that one day, the opportunity is gone. Although most of the time, it’s just people being kiasu… I once had the opportunity to achieve an unlimited bonus from a company that I worked for. Rooted in my passion for travel, I sacrificed a lot of things…

Apparently, Your Brain Decides If Your Travel Plan Will Come True
Some people often ask how I can persevere with my lifestyle for the sake of travelling. They may not realise that once the brain has decided, any travel plan will come true. Once the brain has decided, any travel plan will come trueBUT. You must make that travel plan A MUST In 2016, I ate the same food for lunch and skipped dinner for almost a year. Not something I encourage you to follow, though. In 2017, I wrote as many articles as I could in order to get a big bonus every month. Also, there were pros and cons to this. In 2018, I had the most short-planned trips…
