You can’t see it here, but the skies were clear and sun was blinding. I’m not used to this as humidity in Singapore is high and there is always some cloud cover. And it was pretty crowded so I couldn’t … Continue reading

Perth Trip Day 7: Lakeside Shopping with my Cousin
My cousin was so sweet to accompany us on a boring shopping trip and she made so much effort to help us find what we needed. We easily walked 10,000 steps that day, but that means more room for dessert. … Continue reading
Perth Trip Day 7: Cafe Elixir with my Cousin
I should have listened to my cousin and opted for her suggestions of instagrammable cafes by the beach. No reservations were allowed here at Cafe Elixir, and even though it was packed my cousin managed to snag us a table. … Continue reading

This mall has been around since I was a teen so even though it’s changed quite a bit after being renovated it’s cool to see some old stores going strong.

A Walk in the Rain
I always welcome cooler weather. I am afraid of lightning though. Lightning hits very low and frequently in our thunderstorms, but this was just a light rain in comparison like what you would experience in a temperate country, but wetter … Continue reading

Beautiful Post Rain Sky in the Evening
Decided to capture the sky in the evening instead of my usual pre sunrise posts. That liquid blue against the white was so lovely. Your skin never feels dry here. One good thing about our humidity levels.

Singapore Daily Photo: Skinny Snowman at VivoCity

#97: A Mall With A Beautiful Indoor Fountain Surrounded by Lush Greenery
Decided to continue the list I started more than a decade ago. Since then probably some things on my list are no more, because Singapore is constantly morphing. But we are now blessed with Jewel and her majestic fountain. It … Continue reading
Singapore Museums: The National Museum is Amazing & A Must Visit
It’s free for Singaporeans and Permanent Residents so we really should take advantage of this. The building itself is spectacular and we are always awestruck looking up at the dome with the stain glass. As I went with two darling … Continue reading

It’s Supposed to be the First Day of Spring in The Northern Hemisphere
