I’d rather be…having a vacation by the sea
Living in a city state, there is always the hustling and bustling of traffic and people. Space is limited and noise is inevitable. It represents speed and efficiency. However, it also creates stress and anxiety. So, to escape all these, I’d rather be near the sea, soaking my feet in a pool or sand and watch the sun goes up and down in a slow fashion. Listening to the splash of waves, watching the tides changing its level, observing the ripples on the water surface, smelling the salty air that blown towards my face and having light kisses from the gentle breeze. A vacation near the sea is where I’rather…

A face in the crowd
I was trying to capture the charm of a quiet alley in Spain and just snap the photo. Inevitably, my travel partner became my subject in the photo. It could probably interpret as a lone traveller walking down a quiet street in the middle of a big city. To me, it serves as a portrait of him having travel to this part of the world, wandering and lost in this city. The following are some of the faceless portraits I had shown in some of my blog posts. Check them out if you are interested. Ladies in kimono while walking in Kyoto. The kimonos were so vibrant in colours I…

Sweet
Valentine’s Day is a day where couples shower each other with sweetness, whether it is chocolates, desserts or a sweet gesture of giving a rose. Even towards family members, giving sweetness like cooking a meal, playing games together or simply spending time accompany each other to show their love to one another. This Valentine’s Day I decided to have brunch at The Coffee Academic at Scott Square Singapore. This was where I tried this dubbed as ‘the most Instagrammed coffee in the World’, Coffee In The Cone. The interior of the cone is coated with chocolate. Instead of ice cream, warm coffee is added into the cone. A stirrer is…

Beloved
Beloved, is someone or something that you love, hold dearly, treasured, cherished and adored. This precious one holds dear to your heart. When you see your beloved, you forget all your sorrow and unhappiness. But when your beloved disappears, it makes you miserable, despair and even feeling being abandoned. Sometimes, you get mad at your beloved and other times this sweetheart can brighten up your day with just one glimpse. While this dearest of yours can make you feel strong and powerful, but it can make you vulnerable and bring you to your knees. To my beloved – Sunrise. Every Sunset reduces one day from life… But every Sunrise gives one…

Should bloggers approach hotels for collaboration?
I came across this article and wanted to share with you regarding influencers asking hotels for free stay in exchange for recommending the hotels to their followers. Let me summarise the story. It was a 22-year-old YouTube cum Instagram star, who wrote an email to a hotel to ask for free room stay in exchange for featuring the hotel in her YouTube video and Instagram story. But the hotel owner responded no with sarcastic remarks, and most importantly, the hotel owner wrote his response on its hotel’s Facebook page, showcasing the influencer’s email request.

Silence
Living in a city-state, noise becomes inevitably part of my life. The hustling and bustling sound can sometimes be a nuisance or irritant especially when I seek peace and quiet. Of course, people would suggest going to the outskirts or mountains to get away from all the noise. But, not everytime I could do something like that, just pack my bags and leave my place. So this is where these soundproof windows come in. The windows in my apartment, not just serve as a protective layer from the rain and dust, but also insulate my rooms from the noise pollutions coming from the traffics and construction sites. When I close…
