    This trip happened last year and I wasn’t able to update my blog. As much as possible, I wanted to keep my blog up to date but most of the time, laziness wins! Hahaha. Our Gold Coast was special as this was my first trip interstate with MKR Family! It’s a pity if I wouldn’t…

    Honestly, I was supposed to do this earlier but due to the Korean fever at the moment writing this post was delayed. Anyway, when I read my 2012 summary, I was proud to read my achievements especially in the blogging industry. Unfortunately this year, I didn’t have the events I had when I was in…

    It’s been a great 2013 for me and hopefully for the rest of us. We can bid farewell to 2013 and welcome a new start this 2014. I am fortunate enough to see an amazing fireworks display in Lavender Bay, Sydney despite the massive crowd and long walk. Here are some photos I took from…

    Last year, I was so happy knowing “Kathmandu” store in Canberra and Melbourne. Not only it sounds like my name but they really sell good stuff! I always love travel related stores where you can find cool things that will help you pack light when travelling. Though I always go inside those stores, I seldom…
