Hi, friends! For the past two weeks, I’ve shown you what safari looks like. Ready to see another side of South Africa? This week, I’ll take you on an adventure in Tsitsikamma, where we’ll explore the National Park, Monkeyland, do a tree canopy ziplining, and dine at the unique Marilyn’s 60’s Diner. The Tsitsikamma forest is a part of the Garden Route National Park. You’ll find rivers, forests, mountains, gorges, and plantations. Bye Indiana Jones, hello Dora the Explorer! 🐒🌳🌊 When you travel to South Africa, make sure that you also explore the Garden Route and Fruit Route. There are so many things to see and experience in South Africa…

Admiring God’s Wonderful Creations in South Africa
There are many beautiful countries that I’ve travelled to but I don’t know why, when I was in South Africa, I couldn’t stop thanking God that I was able to see this beautiful country with my own eyes. Not only blessed with fertile soil, exotic culture, and amazing wildlife, South Africa is also home to stunning views. I was enchanted by God’s wonderful creations! Visitting the country reminds me what a genius artist He is… In this blog post, I will share a few destinations in South Africa with amazing views. I won’t reveal them all in one post because some places have their own story that I want to…

A Lovely Stay in Alpenrose Hotel and Gardens, Switzerland
I don’t usually write hotel reviews unless the stay was superb. Although I only had two nights in Switzerland, I really enjoyed my stay at Alpenrose Hotel and Gardens. But first, let me show you some photos of what boarding on a proper Swiss train looked like, the one that I enjoyed (not like the crowded one in the previous post) 😊 Alpenrose Hotel and Gardens is a unique, quaint, and charming hotel with its mini water fountain and gardens. If you wish to truly blend in with the natural vibe that this country offers, skip the modern-looking hotels and choose this one instead. Okay, let me show you my…

Schynige Platte Alpine Garden, Switzerland
There’s one thing that I wish I had during my summer holiday: a bigger budget for the Switzerland trip. Luckily, I had enough to visit the Schynige Platte Alpine Garden! If you’re planning to visit this expensive country and earning in ringgit as a normal office executive, remember this: make sure that your budget is enough for you to enjoy the trip, so you don’t regret. I knew that Switzerland was one of the most expensive countries in the world but I underestimated the fact. I thought, the cities with beautiful views that I wanted to visit (Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, Grindwelwald) were reachable by trains so it wouldn’t cost much. “My…

Traditional Dance and Damro Tea Centre, Sri Lanka
I miss the taste of tea. To celebrate the Lent* season, I decided to give up my favourite drink for 40 days. It was tough for the first few days but now I’m used to it. Luckily, I have this blog as a medium to recall and share my experience when visitting the Damro Tea Centre in Sri Lanka. I will also share some photos of the Sri Lankan traditional dance that I saw the day before. Ceylon tea tastes good, especially when you pair it with Sri Lankan dishes. The dishes here are similar to Indian cuisine — it’s delicious, flavourful, spicy but sometimes oily. Therefore, having a cup…

Janda Baik Day Trip: The Pineyard and Pinto Coffee
Feeling bored with your weekend routine? Then head for a change of scenery at The Pineyard and Pinto Coffee for a day trip! Located in Janda Baik, Bentong, these two cafes are surrounded by forests, mountains, and cool weather. Since the location is just below Genting Highlands, make sure that you bring a jacket, fill your car tank full and check if your car is in a good condition. There are two ways to reach Kampung Janda Baik (translation: The Nice Widow’s Village😂) — the new highway and the old road. If you’re going there in the morning or afternoon, I suggest you take Jalan Lama Bentong aka the Bentong…

Admiring the Beautiful Landscape of Morocco and the Sahara Desert
You will not see a lot of greens in Morocco but the African country will charm you in its own way, especially the landscape. The news of the Australian bushfire reminds me that we should be grateful and appreciate mother nature, and the landscape we’ve been to. Whether it’s the spectacular Norwegian fjords or the exotic Sahara desert of Morocco. Therefore, I would like to share with you the beautiful landscape of Morocco. The Morocco Landscape Traveler Photo Album I know I look fat in the photo. But I didn’t care as it was SUPER COLD in the morning in Sahara! I had layers of clothes and wished I brought…

Breakfast and Birdwatching at M.P.S. Village, Sri Lanka
In the previous blog post, I shared that to travel is also to enjoy food. In addition, I feel that your travel experience is also affected by your choice of accommodation. This isn’t a paid post. I just want to share my experience staying at M.P.S. Village, a budget hotel in Sri Lanka with a wonderful view and yummy breakfast. Imagine hearing the sound of peacocks and other kinds of birds while enjoying your breakfast! Peacocks? Where do they come from? I’ll tell you later 😉 M.P.S. Village, a Budget Hotel Surrounded by Greens and Birds First of all, this beautiful budget hotel isn’t located in Dambulla city center. You…
