Falling in love, one destination at a time
We had a perfect beach vacation at Koh Samui— it was idyllic, serene and so peaceful. The post covid crowds had not returned yet so we felt relaxed. The coast is beautiful and there are plenty of nice cafes. We stayed for 3 nights in Bangrak at the very beautiful Erawan Villas and a night... Continue Reading →
We chose south of Spain for a 2 week trip in April 2022 as it appeared to promise everything-- great cuisine, culture, history, beautiful drives with mountains, olive oil farms, vineyards and some sea (if weather permits!). This was our first proper road trip in Europe. Before, this we rented a car for a short... Continue Reading →
We took our first long (ish) holiday post-COVID in April this year. We chose Spain because it offered a bit of all the European charm--great food and wine, good weather, mountains and beaches. Add to that, super convenient entry requirements i.e. no tests needed for vaccinated travellers and we were sold. We started our trip... Continue Reading →
2021 was probably the most difficult year I have had so far. I was yearning to see my family, itching to travel and just in many ways wanting to get back to a ‘normal’ state. After our multiple travel plans got shelved due to the omicron variant, we did a staycation at Ritz Carlton in... Continue Reading →
Early December, we took a 3 day break for a staycation in Singapore's central business district at Mandarin Oriental. We are not big fans of staycation but it turned out to be a really relaxing getaway from our 'work from home' drill. For me, work from home has turned out to be more exhausting as...

A bit off the main circuit, Tyrwhitt road has some great and affordable dining options. It's a small street filled with hip cafes-- Tiramisu Hero, Chye Seng Huat, Black fairy coffee, Wimbly Lu etc. I have been a regular at Tiramisu Hero in the past. They serve great tiramisu in a variety of flavours and... Continue Reading →
We are usually holidaying on my birthday. Since it wasn't possible this year, we decided to dine in style at Odette. It is a 3-Michelin star restaurant, currently named Asia's best and is amongst the world's top 20 restaurants. Booking runs atleast a month in advance and the 6 course lunch spread is priced at...

Last weekend, few friends and I explored Thomson Nature Park. Loved the leisurely 4km walk. The trails are fun and easy. Although it was sunny, most of the park is covered with tall trees, providing plenty of shade. Overall, a great morning spent catching up, spotting cute birds, mimosas, fig trees and, oh of course,... Continue Reading →
I am having a brain freeze while writing this. Like many of us, I have not travelled in last 6 months and I am kind of starting to forget what travelling feels like. Most likely, it's going to stay like this for a while until a vaccine is discovered! I live in Singapore, a tiny... Continue Reading →
This is my second visit to Thus Coffee and we had a lovely, post yoga, Sunday brunch. It's a bit of an effort to get to this place. It is located on a quiet street behind Sembawang hills food centre. However, the food and coffee is really good and their housekeeping is pretty neat! Location:... Continue Reading →
