Monthly Breakdown for Food Chasers, Chill Walkers, and Ximending Addicts Taipei is still one of my top picks in Asia. Night markets? Elite. Shopping? Dangerous. Weather? Perfect for late-night strolls with fried chicken in hand. I stayed in Tamsui this time — quiet and by the water — but trust me, the city never feels…

Monthly Breakdown for Beach Lovers, Return Visitors, and Travellers Who Miss the Quiet I used to love Da Nang — the quiet beaches, the low-key charm, the way everything felt just a little slower. But coming back after two years… it’s changed. The rise in tourism is great for the locals (and they deserve that…

Monthly Breakdown for Border-Hoppers, Nostalgic Singaporeans, and Cafe-Hopping Creatures Funny how the place closest to home was the last one I considered for long-term living.

It felt like a luxury showroom built for the rich — flashy, curated, and not super liveable once you’re a few blocks away from the Dubai Mall. That said, I had my…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Solo Travellers, and Hybrid Workers I have been to Kaohsiung before but that was when I was still a student travelling with my family (which, if you’re from an Asian household, you know means zero freedom). I’ve also explored Taiwan solo and with friends, but mostly in Taipei. So this…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Hybrid Workers, and Travellers. Ah, Singapore — my home country. A clean, efficient, and incredibly safe city that’s perfect for families, solo travellers, and digital nomads alike. While many locals dream of traveling abroad, I found unexpected joy in rediscovering the city I grew up in. I spent a month…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Hybrid Workers, and Travellers. Ah — Bangkok, Thailand. A magnet for expat living, digital nomads, and returning visitors alike. But why is it so attractive? If you’re researching Bangkok’s cost of living as a digital nomad, here’s my honest breakdown from one full month of living in the city. From…
