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……

Why Couples Should Travel to Udaipur, Venice of the East
Hello, February!💖 Since Valentine’s Day is coming soon, I’ll take you to Udaipur, the Venice of the East. Aand… it’s located in India! Alright, I know Italy and India are totally different. I love Venice, it’s charming and exudes a lovey-dovey vibe, with romantic gondola rides and fancy restaurants near the canals… What about Udaipur? I also love Udaipur, but I don’t know how to describe it in words. Udaipur has a different charm… it’s exotic. The calm, serene city walk… My lovely heritage-style hotel, the delicious lunch at a cute cafe near the lake, the amazing architecture and interior design, and the sunset boat ride are 😍😍😍 Ah, right!…

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…

Bajirao Mastani, an Award-winning Bollywood Movie for Lockdown Leisure
I seldom watch Bollywood movies. But if you’re free during the lockdown, I highly recommend “Bajirao Mastani”, an award-winning Indian movie that will mesmerise you for 158 minutes. “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai” was the only Indian movie that I watched in my teenage years and it left a very good impression of Indian movies on me. #90skid #shahrukhkan After that, I didn’t watch any Indian movies until the lockdown. Now that I have more free time than ever, suddenly I thought of watching something different. I remembered the trip to India that I cancelled because of the unrest in Kashmir… So, I googled the best Bollywood movie and Bajirao Mastani…
