Last-minute bookings, island dives, and a villa with a view. This was an impromptu trip I legit booked just days before — and honestly, one of the best impulsive spends I’ve made. I was working through a stressful period, so I booked a villa with a jacuzzi just to get some kind of reset. Signed…
Boats, bulls, and people risking it all for the ’gram. I’ve been to floating markets before — that was eons ago and with friends — so I thought I’d revisit and booked a group tour. Overall, not much has changed. The activity had the boat circle the market once before setting us down. It’s fine…
I wasn’t sure if this was going to be too good to be true — a full-day Pattaya beach tour listed on Trip.com with everything included: banana boat, parasailing, even drone shots. To my relief, it was legit. I didn’t bring any cash, and I still got to enjoy all the activities without worrying about…
Cha Tra Mue is synonymous with Thailand’s drink scene — and a no-brainer for me anytime I’m craving a cold, sweet pick-me-up. But there’s something that’s been bugging me. I started noticing price differences across outlets for their Original Thai Tea series. At first, I chalked it up to mall rental fees… but then I…
My favourite bakery in Bangkok — hidden in plain sight, right inside CentralWorld. I kept passing by Sunmoulin Royal after meals, always noticing the long queues. One day, I caved. And I’m so glad I did — because that’s when I discovered their Waffle series. Soft, pillowy, just the right amount of sweet. Addictive. Their…
I never expected to enjoy a group activity this much — especially as a solo traveller. I never expected to enjoy a group activity this much — especially as a solo traveller. But this day trip to Ayutthaya booked through Klook was hands-down one of the best group experiences I’ve had. Usually, solo travellers get…
You can satisfy any craving in Bangkok — seriously. This city is a food playground for both locals and expats. While I love hopping between international eats, there are a few local gems I keep going back to — underrated spots that deserve way more attention (except After You — that one’s famous for a…
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…
Finding the right neighbourhood in Bangkok can make or break your stay — especially when you’re staying for a month or more. After multiple visits and trying different areas, here are my top picks based on walkability, food, comfort, and vibe. One of my all-time favourites. It’s quiet yet super connected — just 10 minutes…
