Singapore has only two seasons – dry or wet, but it seems like spring season around here these days thanks to these flowering trees. I’ve been living here for over 5 years but this is the first time this has happened. Last Friday, my friends and I took a detour on the way to lunch […]
Camping in Pulau Ubin (Again)
Singapore is a very high tech, modern first world country, but it has one island that has been untouched by urban development, and that is Pulau Ubin, hailed to be the last “kampong” village in Singapore. People sometimes visit the place to ride bicycles or camp out. A couple of Saturdays ago, we did the […]
2Degree Ice Art: Wintry New Year’s Day in Singapore
So on New Year’s day I decided that I wanted to do something new, so I checked out 2Degree Ice Art, Singapore’s largest ice sculptures exhibition to date, with my friends Jemma and Joc. I have never experienced real winter before (no wait, I did in Korea, but there was no ice involved, just 2 […]
River Safari: Pandas in Singapore
Today I am going to talk about being a tourist in the same country where I live. There is a new tourist attraction called River Safari Singapore, Asia’s first and only river-themed wildlife park. Unfortunately since it’s so new, the river part (where you get to ride a boat on the river, how cool is […]
Taiwan: Ximending {Deetour}
On our trip to Taiwan, we went to Ximending, the popular shopping district, not once, but twice. The first time was to have dinner there after we had wished on floating lanterns in Shifen. We were awed by what greeted us when we stepped off the train. It was familiar, like something I had seen […]

Taiwan: Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Park {Deetour}
On our third day in Taiwan, we were booked for a half day tour, so we decided not to waste the first half of the day by checking out an attraction near our hotel, the Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Park. It was really quite gorgeous, with lots of beautiful buildings and landscapes. Wouldn’t you agree? […]
Taiwan: Wish Upon a Floating Lantern {Deetour}
Hi there wanderlusters! (Is this a word? There’s a red squiggly line underneath it, so I’m guessing… no. I’m keeping it there, though.) Have you seen the movie Tangled? It’s the animated movie about Rapunzel and I really loved that film because it’s so hilarious and heartwarming. In said movie, Rapunzel’s biggest dream was to […]
