“Let’s go to an outlying island instead of shopping” my brother said when he and my sister-in-law visited me in Hong Kong.

Signature Must Try European Dishes When Travelling in Europe
For many Singaporeans, diet is tossed out of the window when we travel. Indulging in local foods and flavours is a big part of my travelling experience and no way would I allow calories and cost to get in the way of good food. Since I am in Europe for the past few days, I […]
Of Gods and Hell, A Visit to Haw Par Villa Singapore
Tucked away in Pasir Panjang, amongst the Universities, the shipyards and offices , lies a plot of land filled with magical creatures. The stuff of folklore and mythology.

Cycling in Hong Kong: Tai Shui Hang, Ma On Shan & Tai Mei Tuk
Regardless of whether you are a tourist or a resident here in Hong Kong, you would most probably have been to The Peak for the magnificent view, shopped at Tsim Sha Tsui, took the Star Ferry across the Victoria Harbour, meandered your way through swarms of people in Causeway Bay, visited the Wong Tai Sin […]
Sungei Road Thieves’ Market – Singapore’s Oldest Flea Market
Ask any Singaporean and they should be able to tell you where the “Thieves’ market” is in Singapore.(The name comes from an old adage from the 1970’s that purports that if you ever “lost” anything, you could probably find it for sale there the next day).
