Hi, guys! This week I will show you other exotic destinations in India: Kuchaman Haveli, the Blue City, and Mehrangarh Fort in Jodphur. In the previous post, we explored Jaipur, the Pink City. Now, let’s explore Jodhpur, the Blue City! 💙💙💙 Since Deepavali is coming soon, I think it’s good to build the hype, so I’m writing this blog post 😉 Besides, I want to show you the beautiful architecture at Kuchaman Haveli and Mehrangarh Fort. Oh ya, people call Jodhpur ‘the Blue City’ because there’s a neighbourhood of Brahmapuri where the houses are painted in blue. The whole area is similar to the Blue City in Morocco! I will…

Delhi to Bikaner: You’ll be Surprised with This India Sleeper Train
Hi, everyone! It’s very hot in Malaysia these few days, so I’d like to reminisce about my India trip during winter. This time, I’ll show you what a sleeper train in India looks like, from Delhi to Bikaner. Soo… I went to India in January 2024. It was a chilly evening when the group tour had to take a sleeper train from Delhi to Bikaner. Speaking of trains in India, the scenes I saw on the TV and online haunted me. A crowd as packed as tuna in a can… with some people sitting on top of the train and others with half of their bodies out of the door……

Travel to India, Is It Safe? This is How I Feel
Hello everyone, Happy New Year! Last week I returned from my 14-day India trip, and it was incredible! ✨✨✨ Before the trip, I was very scared to travel to India because of the rape and murder news about some female travellers. However, India turns out to be safe. Heck, I even wandered alone a few times and was completely fine! When I returned to the office and shared about my trip, some colleagues (male and female) had the same perception as I had before – that the country isn’t safe. So, this week, I want to share my experience of travelling to India. Hopefully, this could open your mind and…

Cyprus Day Trip: Troodos Mountains Jeep Safari Tour
Hi, guys! This week, let’s explore the Troodos Mountains, Cyprus, on a jeep! This is one of the most exciting Cyprus day trips that I had in September 2023. But before that, Merry Christmas to everyone who’s celebrating! And thank you, Exness, for paying for my flight and accommodation during the 1-week business trip 🙏🙏🙏 If it weren’t for the business trip, I wouldn’t think of visitting Cyprus. Since the return flight tickets and hotel are paid for by the company, of course, I HAVE TO explore this country! 🤩🤩🤩 I just had to cover the accommodation for my extension. Luckily, I found a decent room in the heart of…

South Africa: Oudsthoorn Ostrich Farm, Cango Caves & De Zeekoe Guest Farm
Hello, hello, hello, everyone! I feel excited because Christmas (and my holiday) is coming soon. What about you? The theme for this week is: tall men. So yeah, this week, let me take you to Oudsthoorn, the famous ostrich capital in South Africa! Plus Cango Caves and De Zeekoe Guest Farm 😉 If you read my blog post last week, you’d know that Maksim Mrvica is my childhood crush (saw him on TV when I was around 12 years old). Did you know that he’s 207 cm tall?? But not only men in Balkans are tall, there are some tall birds on earth like the ostriches (up to 2.7 meters),…

Starbucks What? One Fine Day in Capri, Italy
“Oh, look at that mural! It looks similar to Starbucks’ logo, isn’t it?” I asked my tour guide who took me and the group around Capri, a beautiful island in the Bay of Naples, Italy. “Starbucks? What is it?” she replied. Oops! Right. Italians don’t drink Starbucks. Aaand, there wasn’t any Starbucks store in Italy when I visited in 2017. Due to sheer volume of business, Starbucks is designed to serve customers quickly and efficiently, whereas in Italy, you go to a coffee bar precisely for leisure and long, winding conversations with your local barista. Jenna Wang, “Why It Took Starbucks 47 Years To Open A Store In Italy” –…
