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…
The math ain’t mathing — and I’ve been thinking about it for a while now. RM13 for bubble tea. RM199.90 for a Uniqlo jacket (on offer). RM230 for a thrifted coat. RM66 for a keychain. And let’s not forget food — RM22 for a chicken chop. All this while advertised salaries for sales associates still…
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.→…
Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Remote Workers, and Realists Seattle had a lot of charm I didn’t expect — Pike Place Market, Lumen Field, and ferry rides to quiet island towns were absolutely worth it. But alongside the beauty, there were moments I couldn’t overlook. The drug and homelessness crisis? Real. I got home by…
Some brands are everywhere. But everywhere doesn’t mean the same. After travelling across 30+ countries, here’s what I’ve learnt about Uniqlo, Muji, Decathlon, and Don Don Donki: just because they exist in your country… doesn’t mean they carry what you’re looking for. Or at the same price. 🧦 Uniqlo: My Toes Know the Truth Uniqlo…
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…
Monthly Breakdown for Solo Female Travellers, Remote Workers, and Slow Movers Sri Lanka wasn’t a country I expected to feel uneasy in. I had always heard about its stunning coastlines and rich culture — and while that still holds true, my experience as a solo female traveller was different. I didn’t feel unsafe in the…
This isn’t a fear-mongering piece. I’ve travelled solo across more than 30 countries — but some places left me feeling far too watched, followed, or worse. No dramatic clickbait here. Just stories from someone who still refuses to carry pepper spray (despite multiple well-meaning lectures from friends). 🐻 Anchorage, Alaska, USA I didn’t realise how…
Singapore might be expensive, but your meals don’t have to be. Forget overpriced cafes — hawker centres and local gems are where locals actually eat. 🔥 My fave hawker and local gems: 🍗 Katong Mei Wei Boneless Chicken Rice📍 Katong Shopping Centre (basement)The rice is fragrant, the chicken is juicy, and the chili sauce? A…
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…
