This one’s personal. I’m so biased toward Japan — and Fuji-Q Highland is a major reason why. If anyone ever asks which theme park has the best view, my answer is always Fuji-Q. You get Mt. Fuji as your backdrop and an adrenaline rush. What’s not to love? 📍 Getting There: I recommend getting the…

Alpine coaster rides, zip-lining thrills, and zero regrets. I don’t usually expect much from theme parks unless they’re Disney or Universal — but VinWonders seriously made me eat my words. It was unexpectedly fun, well-maintained, and had a great mix of rides and scenery. 🔥 My Forever Favourite: 🎢 The Alpine CoasterThis was hands down…

Come for the AC, stay for the sweets (and sharks). Dubai Mall isn’t just a mall — it’s a full-blown destination. I was there for almost a month and still found corners I hadn’t seen before. Whether you’re window shopping, sweet-hunting, or just trying to stay out of the desert heat, here’s what stood out.…

A personal test with ShopBack, Klook, and a surprising discovery. Does cashback always work out in your favour? I thought so too, until I started checking prices closely. Recently, I compared the exact same ticket: → Direct on Klook: SGD84.20→ Through ShopBack: SGD86.75 On ShopBack, attraction passes earn 1% cashback (or 2% if you’re on…

A soft activity guide for Seattle — ferry rides, local events, and underrated gems for solo travellers. Seattle is full of small, good surprises — if you know where to look. Here were my favourite soft-paced finds: → Pike Place Market — Come early for fresh flowers, live buskers, and local vendors. Avoid late evenings.→…

Full-day tour with transport, surreal temples, and a bathroom you’ll actually want to visit. Picked up from McDonald’s Thapae Chiang Mai at 8am, this full-day tour was a visual feast. Though the group was rowdier than usual (earphones recommended for naps), the sights more than made up for it. Here’s where we went: ✔️ White…

I went with half-expectations — the grounds looked small on the map — but halfway there on the BTS, I caught sight of the giant three-headed copper elephant statue towering above the surrounding buildings. That alone raised my hopes. The museum may be compact, but it’s thoughtfully curated. On the ground floor, you’ll find intricate…

If you only have time for one full-day activity from Ho Chi Minh, this might be it. For SGD60 (transport included), I went on a Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta combo tour — and I still think about it. ✔️ Cu Chi Tunnels: Learn about the underground traps and tactics used during the war…

A peaceful walk through Kaohsiung’s temple-lined pond — complete with giant mouths, spiral towers, and a 10-second trip through the afterlife. I went in with zero expectations (plus warnings that it was under renovation), and ended up walking through the Dragon’s mouth into a calm little heaven-hell tunnel. Yup. The Dragon Tiger Pagodas have reopened,…
