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.

Monthly Breakdown for Solo Female Travelers, Remote Workers, and Slow Movers India was always on my list. But like many solo female travellers, I had safety on my mind. There’s no shortage of stories online about harassment or discomfort, and I wanted my first experience to be one that allowed me to be cautious without…

Potato balls, fried chicken, and oyster omelettes — the ultimate comfort combo. Taiwan’s one of the few countries where I look forward to night market food without fear — never once got food poisoning, and that alone is reason to feast. 🔥 My Forever Favourites: ✔️ Oyster omelette — very different from the Singapore version!…
