SO ANOTHER TO-DO off my checklist… throwing a birthday party. Nautical, best friends of 12 years, Oasia Hotel, 25th. Could not have had a funner theme. Could not have had better company. Could not have picked a better venue and age. The Oasia Hotel, located in the heart of Novena, offered a very convenient location. The […]
MY LITTLE GIRL fantasy fulfilled. I swam with dolphins 🐬🐬🐬 Okay, not really swim but an underwater experience with my favourite mammals! Diving is not a requirement in the Dolphin TREK encounter. It involves the Sea TREK® helmet which has a backpack of sorts supplying continuous air supply. Where at? The Dolphin Island at Resorts World Sentosa. Don’t […]

UPON ARRIVAL in Narita Airport, we headed straight to Shinjuku and caught the highway bus to Yamanashi prefecture on a 2-hour journey. The bus had us dropped off at Kawaguchiko station – a lovely sight with its trains and railway tracks. Kawaguchiko station The small town of Kawaguchiko Ramen anyone? The town of Kawaguchiko was quiet. […]
I WONDER if you know? How they live in Tokyo. Tokyo was nothing short of amazing. It was a final pitstop on our 9-day Japan trip. Needless to say we had the theme song (Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift) going on the entire week! Narita Airport In the streets of Asakusabashi Drawings along the stairway walls […]
