    5 Activities to Do in Palawan if you Don’t Dive

    March 17, 2018 /

    What’s there to do in Palawan if you don’t dive? Plenty, as it turns out. Sure, you’ll be missing out on the gorgeous underwater life if you don’t know or learn how to dive. And Palawan IS known as a diver’s paradise. But if you’re afraid of deep, dark waters or scared of sea (or most) animals like me, you’ll still have lots to do in Palawan.

    Budget Breakdown: 4 Days in Haikou

    December 20, 2017 /

    The trip to Haikou was quite a random one. I wanted to surprise WJ with a (very belated) birthday trip, and the nearer countries were all in the midst of their rainy seasons. So I looked a little further and found Haikou, a 3.5 hour flight away. It has supposedly clear weather in November, albeit a little chilly.

    Gunma is the Secret Escape that Everyone has Forgotten

    December 16, 2017 /

    Barely 3 hours away, Gunma is a convenient getaway from the bustling Tokyo city very much like how Hua Hin is an escape from Bangkok. But unlike Hua Hin, the prefecture has a rather “unpopular” reputation amongst locals that there’s nothing much to do there. I beg to differ. There’s so many things to see and do, so how did this impression come about? I guess it’s just really the lack of marketing. Here’s why Gunma needs to be on everyone’s bucket list! #1: Skiing in Gunma It’s one of the most accessible ski resorts from Tokyo. Although I’m not the best at skiing, I heard the snow quality is…

    Almost Stranded in Ozegahara, Oze National Park

    August 6, 2017 /

    With just an hour to rush for the last bus off the peak, WJ and I hurried under the glaring sun. We lifted our aching legs up the stony steps, the last bit of the trail after walking through the grasslands and through the forest. FINALLY. We ran to the bus with just 3 minutes to spare. Sweating profusely with our legs screaming in protest, we were safe at last!

    Soaking in the View at Monsoon Valley

    April 29, 2017 /

    I don't drink wine. Or rather, I don't drink any form of alcohol. Never liked the taste and the bitterness it fills my mouth with. So what was I doing at the Monsoon Valley vineyard? For the view, of course!
