Oh wow, how long has it been since I stayed at Marina Bay Sands? 10 or 11 years? Lol, just thinking about it suddenly makes me feel so old! Really been a long, long time so it felt nice to revisit MBS again. It was pretty much a last minute plan to do a staycation […]

There has never been a better time to add travel insurance to your trip plans. Travel is unpredictable and considering that uncertainties might show up even when least expected, it is extremely important to purchase travel insurance for all your trips. Whether you are a first-time traveller or an avid holidaymaker flying from Singapore, investing […]

We checked in for a 2-night stay at Ji Hotel that’s located in the heart of Orchard Road. Tugged away in a quiet road (Penang Lane) just behind the former Park Mall or current UBS Singapore HQ. But only a stone’s throw away from Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station and Plaza Singapura. Its prime location makes […]

It’s spring break time again, which means it’s time to hit the road or air. This is probably the best time to enjoy an extended vacation from your normal routine. However, planning is the most tedious part of a trip and can make you drown even before it starts. That’s why we got some simple, […]

Hiring a domestic helper in Singapore comes with its own set of expectations, both from you and your helper. Your housekeeper’s primary duty is caring for your home and children to the best of her ability, but you also have your own set of responsibilities to fulfill besides providing a basic salary. Many housekeepers in […]

Year in and year out, expatriates and their families flock to the city of Singapore from all over the world.

Don’t let the island’s tiny size fool you—there’s no shortage of reasons why Singapore has long been one of the most beloved travel destinations in Asia and even the world. This sun-drenched city-state is home to myriad iconic tourist spots, world-class shopping, and delectable multicultural cuisine, to name just a few of Singapore’s many wonders. […]

After a whole day of (junk) food-hopping, I was really craving for some soupy dish or noodles to reset my tummy. And hence we picked Ho Min San for dinner. Ho Min San specialises in Cantonese-style rice vermicelli (米线) and Shanghainese pan-fried buns (生煎包). This Chinese restaurant is owned by Dragon-i Group that also manages […]

Non-stop eating action in Johor Bahru continues! We had a mini vacation in JB just so we could have more time to mall-hop and food-hop.? If you’ve not read my previous posts, check out my review on Amerin Hotel Johor Bahru as well as the following – AEON Tebrau City Food Court Chizu & Honzu […]

K-drama fans may be familiar with Isaac Toast, a popular toast sandwich chain from South Korea. The toast shop was featured in the drama Jang Bo-ri Is Here! 张宝利来了 and that was how I got to know about it too. And the good thing is, we don’t have to travel all the way to South […]

Came across Chizu & Honzu as we were walking around AEON Mall Tebrau City in Johor Bahru. It was that fresh-out-of-the-oven aroma that first caught my attention and I just couldn’t resist that tempting scent. Chizu & Honzu are actually two sister brands/companies. Chizu (on the right hand side) specialises in cheese teas/drinks whereas Honzu […]

Hands up if you also have a penchant for checking out convenience stores and supermarkets when overseas!?‍♀️ 7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Big C, Carrefour and the like. Because if you do, you definitely have to visit the newly refurbished AEON Tebrau City food court in Johor Bahru. Before its major refurbishment, I was already a big fan […]

Just did my first overnight stay at Amerin Hotel in Johor Baru!? Never really thought of doing so previously because I normally go JB for day trips only. This time round, I wanted to do some thorough home accents shopping so decided to stay near Paradigm Mall because it houses my favourite shops (Kaison, Romantika […]

When my husband and I went back to England to visit my in-laws, we decided to also go on a short trip to Paris. Took the Eurostar from Ebbsfleet, Kent (€74 per pax per way) which was nearer to where we were in Essex (South-East of England). The whole journey was about 2 hours 5 […]
