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…

Wanderlust, Behind the Scene 2024
Hi, everyone! It’s been a long time since I wrote a personal finance blog. This week, let me give you an update about me behind the scene, 2024 edition 😄 Wow, I can’t believe it’s been three years since I wrote Wanderlust Behind the Scene in 2021. In just three years my life has changed for the better. Thank you so much, Jesus!!! If you haven’t read the first version of this blog, it’s here. This update is to give you insights into my version of “Instagram vs Reality”. You may see that I’m always travelling on IG but it doesn’t mean I’m a chaebol, very successful, etc… To sum…

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).

Toraja Trip: Rammang Rammang, King Kong Cave & Pias Poppies Hotel
Too much staying at home and in the city makes me miss Indonesia, especially my Toraja trip. That was an awesome 6-day nature-exploring trip! On the first day of the trip, I was welcomed by the beauty of Rammang Rammang, saw a karst stone that’s similar to a king kong face, made new friends and stayed in a natural, comfy Pias Poppies Hotel. The Au Naturel Boat Trip & Puncak Rammang Rammang Rammang Rammang is a beautiful, natural destination located in North Makassar, between The Karst of Maros and the Pangkep regency. The name comes from the local language, and means a set of clouds or fog. My driver, Mr.Asri,…

Cinque Terre, a Walk to Remember in Italy
COVID-19, be gone! It took me some time to get inspiration for what to write about for this week’s blog post. I miss walking outside so much thus I decided to write about my one-day adventure in Cinque Terre, Italy. It was a very long walk and tiring, yet made me so happy. Oh, how I wish to experience it again, especially at times like this! Cinque Terre is the postcard image of colourful buildings on top of a cliff with a beautiful blue sea that some of you may have seen on Google. The must-visit destination in Italy is located on the rugged Italian Riviera coastline and consists of…

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…

Beautiful Budapest, Where I Left My Heart in 2015
I’ll never forget the joy when I starred on my very first Schengen visa in 2015. After all, it was granted by the German Embassy in Kuala Lumpur with much effort! That year, I embarked on my first Europe trip and lost my heart to Budapest. The inspiration to write this post came after I booked my 2020 Balkan trip. Due to my financial limitation, I never want to return to the same country until I travelled to all of the countries in the world. But, my beloved city turns out to be on the list! When you visit Budapest, you’ll understand why it’s easy to fall in love. The…
