I'm back after my last travelling blog post. I decided to make a post about where I have been or where I have travelled. Just want to jot down some memories that I had in my head into this blog, so that I can look back one day and reminisce.

I had a long list and tons of photos to share about my last trip to Paris. It happened on the end of January, I travelled to Paris for around 10 days because of my Bf's sister got married in Paris. It's really an exciting moment and trip at the same time. It's because it's her wedding day, second that was my first time to travel outside Asia, third we started out trip on My birthday 28th January 2017, which also happened to be CNY.

Everything was very exciting for me, since I also got to spend some time with my bf in Paris. We explored Paris within 10 days, we took uber, metro, and walked to go to the places that we want to go. I was so happy that I could walked a lot, unlike in my hometown that barely have a long walk (esp. when you can walk 22.000 steps in a day).


We went to Paris by Singapore Airlines from Singapore to Paris. We stayed at Le Marais area. It's really a great area, it's very lively at night, BHV dept.store, art galleries, mini market and food stores nearby. It's definitely one of the best place to stay in Paris.

First thing first when in Paris, Boulangerie / bakeries are everywhere, My bf's sister brought us to have some pastries from their neighbourhood bakery, and I must say the pastry that we had tasted really great !


We headed to Pantheon in the first day. That day was really cold and it was too cold inside the building, I was a little struggle inside.

Jardin Du Luxembourg. A nice area to visit, I went there on Sunday and there was many locals playing many kinds of sports in the park. I was amazed about the activities in the park. A great place for families. 

At our Airbnb Neighbourhood around Le Marais Area, we almost had our bfast at this bakery everyday. 

HUGE serving of Paella? 


Our second day, we tried a coffee shop to have some coffee. I had my cappuccino for around 5 Euro or more, and I got a fancy, foamy cappuccino.

Buildings around Le Marais. This kind of building is common in Paris, and makes me want to have an office there too. I love the fact it has a lot of windows and I can see the surrounding.

We visited the Louvre on our second day,  My bf's sister helped us to get the ticket for us from online.


Inside the Louvre. We didn't have much time to go all of the places inside. In the end we just googled what are the things that is famous to see. Louvre is really huge and interesting for art lovers. But it's kinda impossible to finish going through all of them within a day.

Found the cupid inside Louvre!

Me, my Bf, and his sister.









One morning, me and my bf like to go to neighbourhood trying different places/ bakeries nearby where we live to to grab breakfast and our coffee. Most of our mornings will be gloomy like this. It's sad but true. Once in a while we had to see sun, but very rare. The quiche was really good at this place.

From outside, lot's of nice building to capture. This is where we get the quiche.


One of my favorite place in Paris. Champs Elysees (love)


 Outfits -- Wearing Jacket, knitted top, skirt - ZARA 


No edit Photo at night.

In front of that famous place, Trocadero.


In front of Opera, didn't get a chance to go inside, but my friend said it's interesting inside. Maybe I should go there next time.

The weather in Paris during Jan-Feb is unpredictable. It could be very cold one time, in a few hours it can be very hot. Just be prepared. 

What could you be doing at night? Just have some drinks, a little snack like popcorn, and a good accompany.


We love to strolled at night, It's just that I could not stand cold. But my BF could, he could go around without his thin jacket. I was feeling cold that night, then he gave me his jacket without doubt and walked normally. I was super freezing, and people just looked at my BF's with a strange look. (I mean, how could he stand the cold).


One day I just visited Pompidou, it's an art center that exhibit some artits's works. Worth to have a look! A view from the top building.






The Palace of Versailles. Super crowded with tourists. It's a touristic place indeed. 


That famous Wall of Mirrors inside the Palace.



Champ Elysees at night, full of lights. me love. It's a long post. I will continue This post on the next post! thank you for reading, stay tuned!

Hi! It's been a very long time I didn't post anything. I just came back from my summer trip. This time was a week gateway to Kuala Lumpur to visit my sister and family. The trip was fun, and while we were searching for things to do in KL, it was a weekend in a long holiday. It was not my first or second time to visit KL, I lived there since High School until I got my Diploma in design major. Mostly, I knew every places to go in KL, but it's always interesting to go there and just reminiscing what are the things that have changed and what I have done in the past. And short story, I ended up going for a one day trip to Singapore. It was a crazy plan at the first place. My bf and I suddenly got the bus ticket and we rode the earliest 6 a.m. Bus from KL, We took Aeroline Bus. The bus was super comfy, they provide us with blanket, a meal, and a small tv in front of every seats. I couldn't ask for more, The seat was super comfy that I just slept for hours. Usually the travel hour will be 4 hours plus. Excluding the immigration and the traffic jam. Unluckily we got stuck at the Singapore immigration. It took us almost 2 hours in the immigration before we finally arrived at Vivo City (the bus stop is nearby Vivo) at 1 P.M..

Took us sometime to get to the exit and found a taxi. We both decided not to waste our time to ride MRT. We used the public Taxi headed to Garden By The Bay. We went inside the Flower Dome, This place makes me leaves in awe. Different flowers from different areas are growing together at one place.

Love Hydrange that comes with variety of colours! 

Look through the huge window glass
Feels like I'm sitting at a park









we then entered Cloud Forest Dome


Lots of awesome and magical view in this dome.




It was raining when we went to the Garden By the Bay, we couldn't go to the outdoor park sadly. We then continued to get our lunch, It was a late lunch. We thought we were going to use grabcar, but we ended up getting taxi at the taxi area. We wanted to go to an authentic Swedish Restaurant, recommended by my sister. It was at Haji Lane Area. I don't really get why the taxi driver that took us to the place didn't understand where Haji Lane is, we ended up have to walk by our own. Unluckily I chose the direction to the opposite direction and ended up to a mall that also has Fika Cafe. In the end we still wanted to have our lunch at Haji lane Area, long story short, we took taxi to Haji Lane. After a long time we got lost and walk, we arrived at Fika Cafe around 4 P.M.

This is the place that we were looking for!


Love the ambience, super hommy and super Scandinavian Style.


Tried their baked pasta and Swedish stroganoff. Simple and yummy!



After we had our late lunch, we continued to walk around the Haji Lane Area. We have a walked around, this street (pic above) has quite a lot of fabric stores. Just don't forget to have your camera ready when you strolled at Haji Lane. There are some colourful shops that sell unique stuffs, some cool murals to stop by and some restaurant / dessert and coffee shops to try.







I like this colourful wall, you could find several of this kind of murals in the small alleys. You would find a group of people stop by for some time to take good photos.




This Shop catches my eyes, I like the green colour wall and how they arrange the shop, makes me want to stop by.





Finally we went to find this coffee shop that is famous with the signature rainbow, rainbow cake, rainbow mille crepe, rainbow latte, you name it. When we searched for a good dessert shop in the internet, many people recommend this place, we gave it a try. Again, unique ambience and I like it how this little shop is just right in the corner that we can sit on having our dessert with a street view. You should try it, unfortunately I couldn't try the mille crepe. Definitely you have to take a shot next to the I am... Sign!













After we strolled around at Haji Lane for more than 2 hours, we decided to take a GrabCar going to back Vivo City, we decided to wait there until our departure. We had enough time to go around the shopping mall, I decided to eat my most favourite food that I always eat every time I visit Singapore, It's a Fried Fish Noodle! I had it at Vivo City Food Republic at the top floor. I was going to get KOI after the meal, but I was too full (too bad for a milk tea fan). We head back at 8 P.M..
Overall the journey was very fun and tiring at the same time. The short trip was surely create a lot of memories, a lot of walking, getting lost, eating, and taking photos.
