After our trip to the Louvre, we walked towards Champs-Elysees. I was in awe of the fact that I was walking in a place that I had read of so many times since I was a child! #dreamsdocometruemoment It was a crisp summer day, cool enough so that we could take long walks without sweating, […]
The Louvre, Paris {Deetour}
Our second day in Paris was a free day, which meant we were free to do whatever we wanted but had to meet up for dinner near the Eiffel Tower. We decided to start with the Louvre. After breakfast, we rode the tour bus and got off at the Louvre museum. The Louvre is the […]
Bonjour, Paris! {Deetour}
I thought it was only right that my first ever step outside of Asia would be on the soil of my #1 dream destination: Paris. We arrived at 7:30 am. I had enough sleep on our 12-hour straight flight from Singapore (window seat rocks, y’all!) so I didn’t feel jetlagged. I had worried about that. […]
The Charm of Amsterdam {Deetour}
“So which was your favorite destination?” more than one person asked me after I came back from my 10-destination trip to Europe. “Ummm… I’m not sure,” I always replied. “I’m torn between Amsterdam and Paris.” I guess I was just afraid to pick one and make a mistake. I was in both places for two […]
Let’s Walk on Orchard Road! #PedestrianNight
Every first Saturday of the month, the Orchard Road is closed off to vehicles so that people can walk on the road. Known as Pedestrian Night on Orchard Road, this initiative aims to inject street vibrancy into the precinct by creating a community space with accessible lifestyle experiences for all to enjoy. At each Pedestrian […]
My Travel Personality
“Who are you when you travel?” That is the question posed by Emma, Kelly, Rebecca and Catherine for their travel link-up this month. I’ve decided to answer this as a list, because all the articles in the world say that people prefer listicles nowadays. (1) The Overpacker I used to be the last-minute-throw-everything-together packer, but that […]
Intramuros, Manila {Deetour}
My friend Gay’s wedding was held in Intramuros, Manila (Philippines), so I had a chance to explore the place for the first time. Intramuros (Spanish for “within the walls”) is the oldest district and historic core of Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Also called the Walled City, it was the original city of Manila […]
The Travel Souvenirs I Collect
Our kitchen cupboard is lined with Starbucks tumblers from different cities. But those are not mine. They belong to my roommate. I know of at least three other friends who have the same souvenir collection. I won’t follow their example because it takes up too much space. Still, I think their collection is less difficult […]
Langkawi, Malaysia {Deetour}
I had always been interested in heading to Langkawi, so last year when I saw a fare sale being advertised on Tiger Air, I immediately told my friends Maya and Gay about it and asked if they wanted to go. Since it’s just nearby, we could go on a weekend so they didn’t have to take […]
Bandung & Jakarta, Indonesia {Deetour}
My roommate Maybelle and I both share the same issue – it’s really difficult to blog about travel. We both love to travel, take pictures, and write, but travel blogging is a whole different level more difficult because it involves poring through hundreds of photos, whittling them down to less than 20, editing them, renaming them, […]
