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…

Feeling Zen at Ryogen-in Temple, Kyoto
Hello, friends! Today, let’s explore the beautiful and famous zen rock garden in Japan, the Ryogen-in Temple, Kyoto! When I edited my travel photos for this blog post, it was raining outside and there was a thunderstorm. What an opposite weather to my previous post, eh? Hehe! 😄 Coincidentally, it was also a rainy day when the group tour, my sister, and I went to Ryogen-in Temple, Kyoto. I know there are many temples in Japan and they all look similar. However, the temple I will take you to today is different. I wish I could have more time there to stare at the beautiful rock garden design with a…

Slow Travel on a Rainy Day in Hvar, Croatia
Hi, friends! Today, let me take you on a slow travel on a rainy day in Hvar, Croatia. I’m so in the mood to write this blog post because… last weekend was HOT, HOT, HOT in Malaysia 🥵☀️😂 One of the beautiful days I had in Croatia was surprisingly… a rainy day in Hvar. For the first time in my life, I was present on a rainy day – relaxed on the sofa and did nothing. Just watched the rain poured down, enjoyed the breeze, and listened to the music… If I were at home or work, I would be in front of my laptop or busy doing other things.…

Turning Alberobello Into a Runway
Happy New Year, friends! 🎉🎉🎉 I did some decluttering before the NYE, what about you? 😊 This week, let me take you to Alberobello in southern Italy! I went to Alberobello last year and intentionally dressed up all red for the visit. This charming and unique little town captured my interest when I saw Dolce & Gabbana’s 2023 fashion show from a magazine. I was mesmerised by the trulli aka white stone huts with grey, cone-shaped roofs. Alberobello looked like a small village in a fairytale! The magazine showed photos of models wearing amazing dresses and walking in the alley. Some of them looked even more stunning because of their…

What to Do in Limassol, Cyprus
Hi, guys! This week, let’s explore Limassol, Cyprus! I went to this island last year for a business trip, but only now I feel like writing about this city. Limassol is the second largest city in Cyprus (a small island near Greece and Egypt), which is perfect for those who like walking and relaxing. Think about a peaceful, calm, and healthy life! When I say ‘peaceful’, I really mean it… because there’s only 1 small shopping mall! It’s not a bustling city but a beautiful, small island. Limassol is a good destination for a temporary change if you live a hectic life. However, if you’re a foodie and prefer city…
