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.

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…

Treat Yourself at Rock Bar and AYANA Resort & Spa, Bali
Spending most of my time at home affects my mood and creativity. While looking at my travel photo album searching for inspiration, the memories of Rockbar and the luxury spa at AYANA Resort & Spa, Bali made me happy. Why? The top two reasons are: The situation back then is very in contrast with what’s happening today! Now, Ringgit is 3x stronger than Rupiah. I’m worried about my personal finance after the salary cut. I’m counting the days until the end of August, crossing my fingers that I’ll be able to travel abroad (I’ve paid for the trip in full). I may have a few things to worry about but…

Stay at Home Virtual Tour: Cuban Casa (Homestay)
Although the MCO (Movement Control Order) in Malaysia is less strict now, I’m still staying at home most of the time. I’ve no idea what to write until #stayathome itself becomes the inspiration! This week, let me take you on a virtual tour of Cuba! I’ll show you how staying in local casas (houses) or homestays will make your trip more memorable. I stayed in Cuba for 15 days. It’s a pretty long holiday because I didn’t want to go there just to Havana. I wanted to know more about the history and culture. I wanted to see other cities too. I guess you’d do the same when you have…

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…
