It was a dream come true when I was told that Air Asia would be flying me to India.

I took the opportunity to step on Indian soil for the first time, and though it was a part of India unheard of (to me at least), I told myself it would an adventure!

The Visakhapatnam we see today is different from the Visakhapatnam just before Cyclone Hudhud.
It was a tragedy, for most of the Visakhapatnam we saw on this trip were the changed landscape, left from the devastation of Hudhud in October 2014.

I’ve alway said I love Singapore.

While Malaysians may grimace at my remarks about how much I love the food in Singapore, I’m still steadfast to my opinion that GOURMET food in Singapore rocks (in comparison to Malaysia) and damn, Singapore chicken rice is just darn tasty.

This trip to Singapore was kindly hosted by the team at Days Hotel and Ramada Hotel on Zhongshan Park.
If you wish to know about both hotels and the food served, you can refer to my links at the bottom of this post.

We have a bubbly guide who shared tales of Singapore as we strolled down the street, embarking on our “Balestier Heritage Trail” which tells a tale spanning nearly 180 years and has borne witness to Singapore’s remarkable journey from a British trading post to a modern city state.
This trail is about 4km, demarcated with trail markers.
You can opt to wonder out on your own, or arrange for a guide.

Everyone loves Bali.
There are many ways to enjoy yourself on this island; from being the infinite party animal (drink, dance, sleep, repeat) to just being a motionless log on the beach.
It is all possible.
