Flores Overland Trip: What to Do in Bajawa
Hello, guys! Previously, I shared with you my Day 1 Flores overland trip, where we explored Ende. Now, let me take you to Bajawa! My Flores overland trip route:Ende > Bajawa > Ruteng > Labuan Bajo + Komodo National Park I was in Flores for 7D6N with my mother and sister. Before the trip, we had low expectations of the food, considering Flores was a remote island. We thought since it wasn’t as popular or developed as Bali, the food would be just okay. But during the trip, we were spoiled with delicious food! I’m not being biased here just because I’m an Indonesian, okay? Hehe… And Bajawa has a…

A Relaxing Walk in Zhaoxing Dong Village, Guizhou
Hi, everyone! This week, let me take you to Zhaoxing Dong Village, the last traditional village I visitted when I was in Guizhou, China. If you follow my blog, we’ve explored Wujiang Village and Miao Village. Both villages are developed and lively, with beautiful, Instagrammable views. In Zhaoxing Dong Village, you’ll feel a different atmosphere—a more authentic, village vibe. A quiet life and relaxing walks in the park, just being present… Not many group tours visit this village because it’s far (around 2-3 hours from Miao Village) and there’s not much to do. However, I feel this village has its charm
I don’t have many things to say about… -
Meow-ing with the Miao Tribe in Miao Village, Guizhou
Meoow friends, thank you for dropping by my blog! This week, we’ll explore another exciting village in Guizhou: the Miao Village in Guizhou
The name comes from the Miao tribe, which resides there. As it sounds like cats, the animal becomes a symbol not only in Miao Village, but also in Guizhou. That’s why you’ll see many cat icons in Guizhou, China! I stayed for one night in a comfortable homestay here. It was good that no big tourist buses could enter the village, so the area was less crowded and polluted. I was advised to pack clothes and necessary things for 3D2N in a small bag because the… -
Guizhou Trip: Wujiang Village and Wujiang Zhailongwan Hotel
Hi, everyone! I just returned from Guizhou, China, three weeks ago. For the first blog post, let’s explore the charming Wujiang Village and Wujiang Zhailongwan Hotel! Fyi, this isn’t a paid post. I want to write about the hotel too because I like its interior design and had a pleasant stay
If you’re a Malaysian, please maximize your chance to explore China before the end of this year, since you won’t need a tourist visa. If you’re a non-Malaysian and are staying in Kuala Lumpur, THIS IS YOUR GOLDEN CHANCE to apply for a Chinese tourist visa conveniently 
Guys, I’m serious. This is a PSA – public service… -
A Relaxing Walk and Wine Tasting in Stari Grad, Croatia
Hi friends! I hope you’re healthy. I’ve been down with the backward flu and cough for weeks
But no worries! Today, I’ll take you for wine tasting in Stari Grad, Croatia 
Last week was a bag of mixed feelings for me. Something made me down, but other events made me happy. Well, that’s life, it’s up and down! When I was browsing my travel photos, looking for inspiration on what to write for the new blog post, I found the photos I took in Stari Grad, one of the oldest towns in Europe comforting. Indeed, it was a relaxing and joyful day 
Looking at the photos of… -
4 Interesting Things About Italian Food I Wish I Knew Sooner
Hi, guys! I was having fried Indomie for lunch and suddenly had an inspiration for the new blog post. This week, let me share with you 4 funny things that I realized when I was in Italy
Some of you may already know about them, but my new friends and I had a bit of culture shock during our Southern Italy and Sicily tour. Looking back, it was very funny… I wish I could see our faces back then 
In Italy, Pasta is Served Without Protein I first visitted Italy in 2017 and laughed at the story saying that if you threw a coin into the Trevi Fountain,… -
Chasing Beaches and Waterfalls in Sumba, Indonesia
Hi, guys! This week, let me show you the beautiful beaches and waterfalls in Sumba, Indonesia
In this blog post, we will visit three Sumba beaches: Mandorak Beach, Watubela Beach, Puru Kambera Beach, and Walakiri Beach (bonus: Waikuri Lagoon). Meanwhile, the stunning Sumba waterfalls we’ll explore are Weekacura Waterfall, Lapopu Waterfall, and Tanggedu Waterfall. Actually, I was supposed to visit Waimarang Waterfall too, but I skipped it because the pathway was tough. At some point, I would have to become ‘Jane’ as I need to use a tree root as a rope to go down! 
If you love nature, you can enjoy the view in peace…
