I embarked on a halal trip to Macau recently and when a few close friends asked if I was mad, I had calmly replied no.

In fact I had thought that the initiative taken by the Malaysian Macau Government Tourist Office to market Macau to Muslims a sound one.
I was curious myself too; what would be a Muslim’s diet like in a city known of sin and swine?

I had to indulge my curiosity and being the adventurous shod that I am, I hopped on the plane to Macau.

Well, for the “go” part, there’s plenty to see, learn and explore sans casinos.

My time in Sydney was short and long at the same time.

The main purpose was Luxperience, which basically means hours in the exhibition “working” and attending one networking lunch/dinner after another.
I loved it; for the opportunity was an amazing one, and I had much fun exploring the booths, meeting new people & learning about the world’s exclusive and luxury travel market.

It was a very eye-opening experience as I never knew how luxury can get when it is truly LUXURY.
If you think your average 5 – 6 stars hotels are luxury, you have no idea just what you HAVE NOT seen.
