Travelogue - Munich, Neuschwanstein Castle

Visited Europe in October and fell in love with Bavaria. I've already mentally listed out the next few places in Bavaria that I definitely want to visit. 

On one of the days, we took a day trip to see the acclaims Neuschwanstein Castle and the town it resides in. I can see why the castle in Sleeping Beauty was inspired by this. 

Travelogue - Sapa

While in Hanoi, my friend and I decided to do an 2 day trip to Sapa. We took an overnight train there and a bus back to Hanoi. It was a definite experience - Sapa was so cold and foggy in February. It added a sense of mystery while we were exploring the area. I also got to experience riding a bike up and down the winding roads of the mountain while getting caught in a hailstorm! 

Travelogue - Hanoi

Hanoi was a spur of the moment trip in Feburary 2015. Went there to visit a friend who brought me around on her motobike - which was scary as hell for the first few days because traffic there is crazy! The weather was nice and cooling and flowers were in full bloom as spring was on it's way. 

SG Escapades - St. John's Island

First stop on my island hopping day trip was St. John's Island. This island was bigger than what I had expected. There were so many areas to explore! You could simply enjoy the waters near the jetty, roam back further into the island, or take a walk to Lazarus Island. We saw people lugging bags of things to the island in the ferry all ready to spend a day there. It was then that I stated to wander if my small backpack had enough "supplies". But back to the island. 

SG Escapades - Kusu Island

I only found out about Kusu Island a few months ago, and upon seeing photos of the place, I decided to make a day trip out of it and go island hopping. 

Travelogue - Bangkok

The last time I went to Bangkok, was 12 years ago. When I went to Bangkok in November 2014, I returned to a completely different city. In recent years, I'd been hearing about the tantalising food and fantastic shopping that the city had to offer. So I decided, why not head back to see how Bangkok has changed?

I didn't really do much site seeing this trip - another excuse in my opinion to head back. All we did was eat and shop and take morning swims in our lovely hotel pool. It was a short and lovely getaway from everything.

SG Escapades - Kampong Lorong Buangkok

On a self-imposed travel ban because I should be saving money to go to Europe - but I've since looked at air tickets twice in the past 2 weeks. In an attempt to fight the itch to travel, I decided to embark on a journey to explore places in Singapore that I've never been to.

First up on the list, Singapore's last kampung at Lorong Buangkok!

Travelogue - Sydney

Sydney happened in July 2014. I'm horribly behind time in updating this space. I've always wanted to visit Sydney, but instead always ended up in other Australian states. So when I finally bought my ticket, I was hyped.

To me, Sydney holds a wonderful balance between the fast paced city life and the slower paced country side. Head to the city's business district and you'll see businessmen in suits walking around, the mandatory cup of coffee in hand. You'll see people of all walks of life hurrying about their daily life.
