Phuket
2018 Aug. Phuket. Thailand.
Phuket is a nearby popular beach destination that I have never visited until this trip. Very touristy and crowded, and not my favourite beach holiday compared to other similar Thai options like Krabi or Koh Samui. I did not encounter any must-see or must-eat places to recommend strongly, so just chill, relax, and go with the flow… Continue Reading
Poseidon Oysterbay Kelong
2018 July. Johor Poseidon Oysterbay Kelong. Malaysia.
This was a fun weekend overnight kelong stay. For those unfamiliar with kelong, it is a Malay word describing an offshore platform built predominantly with wood for fishing and dwelling purpose, which can be found in waters off Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia. We arranged for a private car to pick us up in Singapore and drove to Telok Sengat Jetty in Johor, Malaysia. The kelong was a few hundred metres offshore along Johor River. Continue Reading
Bali
2018 May. Bali. Seminyak. Ubud. Hanging Gardens. Indonesia.
The Bali trip planned for Dec 2017 but disrupted by Mt Agung eruption happened in the following May instead. I managed to postpone my accommodation reservations, after many back and forth emails with the hotels. My maiden trip to Bali was 15 years ago in 2003. Bali is such a beautiful destination with so much to offer, I really should visit more often. Visitors are always spoilt for choices when it comes to accommodation in Bali, and a tough decision to narrow down where to stay. There are so many beautiful resorts and villas to choose from, each with its own style and attraction, either architecture, scenery or location wise. I decided to stay in 3 places for this trip, 2 nights per location, to savour the best of Bali – seaside in Seminyak, padi fields in Ubud, and rainforests at Hanging Garden . Continue Reading
Chiang Rai 2017
2017 Dec. Chiang Rai. Thailand (Part I)
How this trip came about in end 2017 was a story in itself. My well-planned year end vacation to Bali fully arranged waiting to go was suddenly disrupted when Mt Agung erupted in Nov and the airport closed down. Just days before the planned departure, I decided better to be safe and switched destination to Chiang Rai, making last minute bookings on Agoda. Not expecting much, I was pleasantly attracted to the laid back vibes of Chiang Rai, and revisited again in 2019 (see Part II). Continue Reading
Chiang Rai 2019
2019 Aug. Chiang Rai. Thailand (Part II)
My previous last minute trip to Chiang Rai in Dec 2017 left a good impression, and I wanted to return to explore more of what I did not see in Chiang Rai. Made another trip in Aug 2019 over National Day long weekend without much planning. This blog post can be read as a continuation of the previous post in 2017 Part I. Continue Reading
