Hello guys, I am back from my trip! I can’t wait to share about my trip but first I need rest. I arrived back in Singapore at 2am on Monday and had to work at 9am. I still need more sleep to recover! :/ Anyway, here’s a little entry about my short day #1 in Hanoi. I hate Tiger Airways. Their prices change everyday, their seats suck, their air stewardesses suck, the additional charges on baggage check in are quite…
View PostTraveling DIY style requires a lot of decision making. Hell, it requires more research than a final year project! I guess life in general does requires a lot of decision making as well, but at home a lot of your daily decisions are already made. You have to wake up at a certain time, showering is pretty much required, you pretty much know what the weather is like so you can dress appropriately, you eat whatever is handy, have a…
View PostI was thinking of going KL next week. I have a week between jobs. Yes, I am changing job! :) I’m mighty excited about my new company.

View PostHere were some of the many cruises we considered going with.

View PostAhoy! Hanoi! I am coming! 01 March to 08 March 2009 – 8D7N It was initially a customised (by me) private group tour but after my dear friends (you know who you are!!) all put me aeroplane leaving me with less than ideal number of people travelling together, it is going to be a free & easy tour. Hanoi, Vietnam’s most interesting city, has a grand total of like 1 million and counting number of travel agents along with their…
View Post7th May 2008 – Day 10 (Rome) After my morning meet with the Pope, I make my way back to the square to meet up with my arranged tour of the day! I went with Romaround Tour because the lady, Elaine was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable.
