Apparently this year’s crowds were significantly smaller than last year’s. Y and I wouldn’t know because this was the first time we’d taken the trouble to rise early on a Saturday morning and head down to PWTC. At 9.45am, there was already a whole heap of people queuing for their admission tickets. If this [...]
I meant to tell you about him ages ago but quite frankly, I forgot. The Parisians have a reputation for being snobbish. Or rude, whichever adjective you prefer. Some of them even openly admit it, if the stories I hear are to be believed.
That is why, on that chilly morning in Paris, we were [...]
I hesitate to blog about our trip to Sipadan because my words, I feel, are simply inadequate. I cannot describe the sheer beauty of the underwater world or the awe that fills me when a turtle swims so close I could have reached out and touched it.

Unfortunately, that also means my point-and-shoot simply couldn’t cut it, especially when it came to capturing all [...]
This is why we were in London – Y’s sister, Liwan, graduated from Imperial College. It was a beautful day, all sunshine and blue skies. Liwan really looks like Y! She’s pictured here with her boyfriend.
While there, we did all the touristy things, like visit Tower Bridge. This is one of my favourite [...]
Where do you start when you have seen and experienced so much? How do you begin after being away for two whole weeks? I have pages and pages of scribbled notes, some scrawled under the stars of an Italian night sky while waiting for Y to take yet another photo of the Colosseum, but for [...]
