One travels more usefully when alone, because he reflects more. -Thomas Jefferson Day 4 Taman Sari If Yogyakarta ever crossed your mind in your travel list, Jomblanc Cave is definitely a must go for every traveller out there. Before that, I stopped by Taman Sari with my beloved friend, Hermon. Took a while to navigate…
Day 2 Sprang out of bed at approximately 3.30am, I quickly washed up because I was meeting the driver at about 4 am. His name was Hermon, a really nice and honest chap to which I later came to appreciate his integrity and genuine heart (PM me for his number). After an hour and a half…
Have you ever wondered what it feels like to travel solo to somewhere where you’ve never been to and couldn’t speak their language? Intimidating? Maybe. But one thing for sure is that you’ll grow as a person and being put in a situation where you’re forced to adapt, you’ll become a more independent person.…
“Because there’s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it’s sent away. Sarah Kay” Philippines, Boracay has been classified into 3 stations with station 3 being the nearest to the airport. Although there is an airport (Caticlan) in Boracay, my friends…

Amsterdam I still remembered clearly how I curled up into a ball and freezing after a long bus ride from Brussels to Amsterdam. Voila! We have finally arrived at the land of sex and drugs (not that we’re into any of them). Because we only booked the hotel a few days ago, the location of…
Belgium Brussels Home to the headquarters of the European Union (EU) and Belgium’s capital, Brussels was one of our stop during our Europe trip. I don’t recall much of Brussels except the fact that our hotel was so far away from the city we had to take a RAIL there. Fortunately, the place that we…
Paris Boasting branded handbags and apparels, Paris is definitely on every Fashionista bucket list. What about travellers? Apart from the handbags and the Eiffel Tower, take it from me that Paris is definitely worth visiting. There’s something about Paris that makes you fall in love with the city. Nope, I’m not talking about the fancy…
Barcelona Definitely one of my favorite places during the trip, Barcelona has a laid-back atmosphere as compared to other bustling cities. Businesses usually start at 10am and closes pretty late (not sure). People here are pretty friendly so don’t mistake their kindness for attempts to rob you (like I did). Although as with all cities,…
Travelling in Europe, something that is listed on everyone’s bucket list. Yet, people procrastinate to travel there because they assume that it’s expensive (so much so that it could hit 5 digits for the travel). No doubt it’s a tad expensive, but if you thrift, trust me the trip would be awesome. If you’re someone…
