Lake Como, Italy. Things to know before visiting.
Lake Como has got to be one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. A distant dream that came true. I wish I could go back to the time where I first caught the glimpse of the exquisite lake glittering underneath the warm but gentle sunlight, and…

London in Gloomy October.
I have been putting off updating my blog for quite a while. These posts are collecting dusts in the draft folder and i reckon, i might as well just publish them anyway. If I could describe London in one word, it would be ‘gloomy’ and I am not talking about…

Ireland
Ireland is undoubtedly rich with history and folklores. As you drive outside Dublin, you would be greeted with green pastures, majestic mountains or clifftops, and also a sight of ancient castles and ruins dated all the way back to prehistoric times. A week would do no justice for the curious…

Dublin.
Truthfully, I never thought I would be so invested in the history of Dublin, a land founded by the Vikings. As you stroll along the river bank, eventually, you would be reminded of the great famine that struck back in 19th century that had taken approximately 1 million lives across…

Chateau Saint Martin & Spa, France.

Jumeirah Zabeel Saray, Dubai
Fun fact : That one party scene at the Indian palace from Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol was actually filmed at this very hotel. Jumeirah Zabeel Saray stands out as one of the most grandiose hotels with its ornately carved entrance and palatial façade. It makes you feel like you have…

My trip to The Datai, Langkawi
I am writing this in the midst of a 10-million-year-old rainforest – accompanied by the luscious green as well as the cacophony of insects and other mystical creatures. Occasionally, the trees will start dancing in the wind and other times, it is because of the little playful monkeys that would…
