Malacca Road Trip: Majestic Hotel
Picked Majestic as it was number one on Tripadvisor. There is no free wifi in the rooms so we ended up in the lobby quite a bit. But it was nice. The staff are so friendly and you can help … Continue reading

Longing for a Luxury Holiday in Bintan
Took a trip down memory lane instead. I’m old enough to not be embarrassed to say I hate roughing it out. Done it before in my early twenties. Happily even. On spartan bunk beds. My good friend E will remember. … Continue reading

Fun & A Headache at the Same Time

Just Back from a Spontaneous Trip

Kerala: Journey Inside A Houseboat
