Phu Quoc island was on the tourist radar for the past four years but rapid development was only in place for the past two.
With support (and budget) from the government to transform this idyllic archipelago into a quality eco-tourism destination, Phu Quoc has morphed from a sleepy island to a must-visit beach escape for locals (yes, there were plenty of visiting Vietnamese from HCMC/Hanoi), expats and beachlover -tourists alike.

With the rumoured direct Air Asia KL – Phu Quoc flight in 2018, expect hordes of Malaysians to be part of the tourist statistics soon!

My first sight of Phu Quoc was thanks to the inaugural Phu Quoc Beer Festival.
With the winner of my giveaway Aaron Quay and his friend Dale, we descended onto Phu Quoc with anticipation of beers, sun, sea and a weekend of idyllic fun!

Penang was named 2nd top tourist destination for 2017 by CNN recently and as a pure-bred Penangite, I couldn’t help but teared a little when I read the news.

Man, you’re talking about my hometown here yo!

I had a lot of car-related bills piling up this month.

Not long ago I had tinting done on the windows as the recent heatwave was threatening to burn my skin through the glass.
My car which has served me well over a decade finally had its first tint, which was an unnecessary “investment” (of RM400) until now.

And then the compressor broke down, and to quote the mechanic “The weather is so hot now, compressor working harder and yours is old so that’s about the end of its lifespan.”
As I grimly forked out RM650 he said gently to me “Miss, your 2 front tyres are bald.”

I glared at him in dismay, but for the sake of SAFETY, I changed the tyres immediately the next day, costing RM300 which adds up to a total of approximately RM1400 for car repairs this month alone.
