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 Surprise City Crushes, Cafe Crawlers, and Wedding Weekenders I was only in Malacca for a week — came for a friend’s wedding, stayed for the food and weekend energy. I didn’t think much of it before the trip, but I ended up enjoying the slow pace, good eats, and charming little cafes…

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. But when a friend mentioned they were based in JB — and I had a personal event in Singapore — it all clicked. I used to pop over as a…

Monthly Breakdown for Singapore Escapees, Practical Shoppers, and Banana Leaf Addicts Originally, I booked KL as a convenient hub — lots of flights in and out, easy transit to other countries. But somewhere between the local eats, shopping deals, and day-to-day ease, I kinda fell in love with it. It has a Singapore-adjacent vibe, but…

Monthly Breakdown for Solo Travellers, Sweet Tooths, and Slow Explorers The main reason I wanted to visit Istanbul was the Grand Bazaar — all the videos made it look like a dream. But in the end, the real highlight wasn’t the shopping. It was the vibe. Wandering through neighbourhoods on the Asian side, hopping ferries,…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Solo Travellers, and Sunrise Chasers This trip was a gamble — I picked it mostly for the view from the apartment. And it paid off. Nha Trang ended up being more fun than expected. It was my first solo trip in Vietnam (the first time I visited was on a…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Solo Travellers, and Sweet Tooths in the Desert I honestly thought I’d enjoy Dubai more… but I didn’t. 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 Reset Seekers I never really got the appeal of Busan. My cousin once said it was the one place in Korea he’d go back to, so I was intrigued. I always thought I was more of a city girl — but Busan proved me wrong. This coastal…

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…
