Career Break Travel: Tokyo, Kanagawa & Saitama
After being on the road for more than 2 months, we were craving our favourite comfort food - ramen. And where better to get some than the birthplace of ramen, Japan?

Career Break Travel: Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva & Tashkent
We planned our 3-month trip around Uzbekistan after seeing all the amazing things people were saying about the country, and we were so, so excited to visit. And... The country did not disappoint!
-
Career Break Travel: Istanbul, Pamukkale & Cappadocia
You could say that Turkey was the highlight of our entire career break trip. Yes, we loved it that much, especially Istanbul and Cappadocia! From the scenery to the food to the people, the trip was almost perfect.

Career Break Travel: Mostar & Sarajevo
Mostar caught our eye when we were researching where to go after Croatia because of its fairytale-like beauty, and we decided to tack on Sarajevo without realising what it had to offer.

Career Break Travel: Zagreb, Plitvice Lakes, Split & Dubrovnik
Croatia is definitely not a cheap country to visit, especially tourist hotspots Dubrovnik and Plitvice Lakes! We first got sticker shock when we bought a drink while waiting for our Airbnb to be ready in Dubrovnik. The small bottle of aloe vera soft drink cost almost S$9! But apart from the high cost of living, Croatia is such a beautiful country.

Career Break Travel: Budapest
The main thing that struck us about Budapest was how photogenic it was. The buildings were all so beautiful and had such incredible detail. We spent most of our time exploring them on foot.
-
Career Break Travel: Poprad & Bratislava
With only 2 nights in Poprad, we just didn’t have enough time to explore the city, let alone the mountains, fully. We’ll definitely have to come back to Slovakia to explore more of the country!
-
Career Break Travel: Wroclaw, Krakow & Zakopane
We first knew about the pretty town of Wroclaw while scrolling through IG and knew that it had to be on our list. Since we were already going to be in Poland, we decided to tack on two other cities to our trip - Krakow and Zakopane.
-
Career Break Travel: Prague, Cesky Krumlov & Kutna Hora
Hello, land of charming architecture and cheap beer! People always comment that Prague looks straight from a fairytale. But I think Cesky Krumlov looks more like one than Prague!

Career Break Travel: Munich
This was it! The start of our trip! We chose Munich to kick off our 3-month trip because it was the closest to the countries we wanted to visit, and we'd accumulated enough miles for 2 one-way direct flights from Singapore.
