Dinner on the Sea (Kelong)
What's big, can hold many people up but doesn't sink into the sea? A kelong! A platform built mainly with wood, kelongs are primarily used for fishing purposes but can be used as housing too. They hover above the sea and are anchored by wooden piles driven into the seabed.

Craving for Krabi
The soft sand crumbles beneath your toes as the sun beams down upon you. A cool breeze blows softly, and you tuck your hair behind your ear with a flower. With a glass of freshly squeezed juice in your hand, you look across the expanse of the ocean and sigh contently. All is well.

Getting our Hands Dirty at Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle
Deep in the jungle lies the aptly named Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle, a rustic place filled with all things ceramic. So technically it's not in the jungle, but it is located in CleanTech Park near NTU. It's still pretty far away and hard to get to, especially if you live on the other side of Singapore! It took us about 2 hours from Pasir Ris to get to this little haven away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

A morning at Pulau Ubin
Need to get away from the hustle and bustle from the city life, but only have a single day? Luckily we have Pulau Ubin just a short while away then!

We Flew at iFly Singapore!
WJ took me to Sentosa for a surprise Valentine's day experience at iFly Singapore yesterday! I don't think I was very good at it; I kept sinking down to the safety net every time the instructor let me go. Or I'd spin around and keep hitting the glass! But we had lots of fun and it was a terrific experience!

Taipei, we meet again!
This trip to Taiwan can be considered an impromptu one. We had already bought air tickets to Bali for a 6-day family trip, which had thankfully only cost us $88 each. But because of the recent AirAsia crash which happened on the same route, WJ's sister became a bit paranoid and we ended up buying new tickets to Taipei just 2 to 3 days before we had to leave! As we were going with WJ's parents who hadn't been to Taipei before, we decided to keep the trip a simple one and bring them to some of the more touristy sites.

Pre-wedding Shoot + Holiday in Taiwan
WJ and I just got back recently from our pre-wedding shoot (and holiday!) in Taiwan. We booked the package earlier this year since we already had plans to go to Taiwan for a holiday, so why not do the shoot at the same time and kill two birds with one stone? :D Anyway, here's our itinerary.
