Madison Square Garden was one of our top venues we were interested in visiting while in New York. Also known as the Garden, it is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Midtown Manhattan. That place is rich in history as a premier venue not only in hosting world class sporting events, but also concerts and... Continue Reading →
The ferry to the statue of liberty was one of the most amazing experience I had while in New York City. Yes I know the site is super touristy and kinda overrated, but for a first-timer, we just had to do it. It was beautiful, bright sunny day, judging from the sunglasses that I had...

After a good night's sleep, we were eager to set out and properly explore the city. We focused on lower Manhattan first and took the subway to the World Trade Center. The PATH station of the World Trade Center is a magnificent piece of architecture. Built from the remains of the former WTC station in... Continue Reading →
A little over a year ago, I went on a trip of a lifetime. I have always wanted to visit New York City. Looking back at my blog, I realised that while I mentioned about the trip to New York, I never really shared any photos or talked about my experiences while being there on... Continue Reading →
Stawamus Chief When I was planning my itinerary, one of the top things I wanted to do was to explore the beautiful nature on the outskirts of Vancouver. There were many many hiking trials in and around Vancouver while I was doing my research. In the end, one of the hiking trails that I chose... Continue Reading →
By dawn the next day, we had breakfast buffet at the common tent. It was time to say goodbye to the Sahara desert. The camel rides, sunset by the sand dunes and the bonfire that kept us warm at night in the desert were cherished memories that I definitely brought home with me. A jeep... Continue Reading →
If someone were to ask me where the cultural and spiritual capital of Morocco would be, it would be Fez. The city of Fez is old. It is steeped in Moroccan culture and tradition. It’s Médina has a long and rich history and is doing a pretty good job in resisting the march of modernity.... Continue Reading →
Our next destination was Tangier. From Rabat, it was a 3 hours leisurely drive. Along the way, we made a stop to the Lixus ruins. Lixus was once an ancient roman city that sits atop of the hill, overlooking a town called Larache. I remembered having lunch in Larache. If I was not mistaken we... Continue Reading →
We had a couple of days in Rabat. After driving from Casablanca, we arrived in Rabat sometime in the mid-afternoon. Our riad was in the medina. We had two problems. First, was to find a suitable parking lot to park our rented car that was not too far off from our accommodation. This is because... Continue Reading →
Our next destination was Rabat, about 90km north of Casablanca. We rented a car but as soon as I got into the car, I immediately regretted my decision to drive in Morocco. The traffic was devilishly chaotic. It seemed that no one was following traffic rules in this country. Only those with the heart of... Continue Reading →
I was browsing through my trove of photos I have accumulated in my iPhone and I realised that there were pictures from two recent vacations that I didn’t really find the time to review them and select the best for further editing. I did edit some of them for Instagram and Facebook, but a vast... Continue Reading →
Two weeks in, and I already miss Iceland. Kirkjufell. One of the most iconic mountain in the Snæfellsnes peninsula. This is taken during the autumn season, where the snow hasn’t really arrive yet, but the chilly winds is enough to chill you to the bones! There is something magical about this island, this country, the... Continue Reading →
Road 901. Perhaps the most scenic and beautiful road I have driven in this trip to Iceland. A light winter’s touch topped with a sprinkling of light snow throughout the landscape made this place surreal as if straight out of a fairy tale. Shot on the iPhone 11 Pro Max. In 2016, I went on...

I am really excited to be going back to Iceland for another road trip adventure. This time bringing my parents along and we will see a different side of the country to the one I experience before. We will be going during the autumn season, with significantly less snow, as compared to February, the month... Continue Reading →
So shit just got real. Previously me and my dad were just casually discussing about going on a trip to Iceland. Obviously I went there with my friends 3 years ago in February of 2016. It was full on winter. Super cold and the snowy landscape was just drop dead gorgeous. Of course, the landscape... Continue Reading →
I will choose this photo: One of the most beautiful thing that I really love about Morocco, when it comes to its natural landscape is the oasis. A winding field of green that follows the natural contours of the river irrigating crops such as olive trees, date trees, and plants that grow almonds, onions, and... Continue Reading →
I just came back from my two week trip to Morocco and I am absolutely floored by the sheer beauty of the country. I took so many photos of Morocco on my iPhone and it has become a joy looking at it through again. My friends and I recently embarked on a two week trip... Continue Reading →
Things have been moving so fast in recent weeks, so fast in fact, that I didn't have time to write about it. A couple of weeks ago, I got back from New York, flew on the world's longest non-stop flight on Singapore Airlines and saw and bought many things in New York! It was a... Continue Reading →
Last year, my friends and I, the same group that went on a road trip around Iceland, were planning to go to Canada for our next great road trip holiday. However, I think I have to shelf that plan. It has come to my attention that my parents would like to go Iceland for their... Continue Reading →
So previously my family booked a couple of a AirBnB accommodation in New York. It was the most economical option available, considering that hotel stays in New York is crazy expensive. And with six of use travelling as a family, it makes sense to book our accommodation on AirBnB, where we can book an entire... Continue Reading →
