This short off the beaten track to Vilnius, Lithuania to acquaint myself with birch tree sap and its production was arranged by my business partner in early 2018. Though brief, the trip certainly opened my eyes to this Baltic state, which was a former Soviet bloc nation.
Vilnius city does not have bustling night market nor street food like in Thailand or Taiwan. But if...
China is one huge country and among its 674 cities, Guilin is one of the most popular destinations. But what you can do with just 3 days in Guilin? In this travelogue, I like to share my 3 Days Guilin itinerary and some travel ideas for a quality short trip. Most who have yet to visit this city will surely have seen its spectacular scenery of karst mountain landscape and the ubiquitous 'old fisherman with cormorant'...
This exploratory trip to the laidback resort town with Alvin Foo (Principal, Canon Imaging Academy) and Cindy Loo (Jetabout Holidays) convinced me that Broome is certainly a photographers' heaven in Western Australia.
For city folks with a penchant for the non-touristy, serene and unhurried pace of life or photography enthusiasts looking for spectacular nature, wildlife and landscape or couples planning...
Kanchanaburi offers something for everyone and in my honest opinion, is certainly one of Thailand's most underrated destinations. Blessed with natural and historical attractions, this laid-back town features many sightseeing opportunities that would please nature lovers and history buffs alike. World War II memories dominate a large portion of the town, with a number of museums and war memorials dedicated to the many lives lost during the Japanese occupation, while nature parks and its...
When shooting a newly minted landmark as iconic as The Jewel at Changi Airport during the preview days prior to the official opening on the 17th of April 2019, any photographer at whatever level of experience will face a steep learning curve. One of the key challenges comes from the immense human traffic as 500,000 preview visit passes were issued for the 1-week event. But we went through a shooting session and came away with some tips that might just help those planning a photo trip...
Australia has always been one of the world's powerhouses for exciting activities that adrenaline junkies swear by - skydiving, shark diving, kite surfing, hang gliding, and bungee jumping, just to name a few. Coming from a tiny highly urbanised country like Singapore, the opportunity to enjoy thermal gliding is non-existent as huge tracts of land and airspace with the right conditions are required.
Being an aerial enthusiast when I was an avid aeromodeller during my teens, the dream to sail...
This one week exploration trip to Canberra - the capital of Australia and the surrounding regions reveals one thing - Australia is consistently beautiful, whichever the region, with each having slightly different 'personalities and flavours'. The impression of Canberra, being the seat of political headquarter, is 'less exciting' is certainly a misconception. This travelogue highlights 33 things to do, see, eat on a road trip to Canberra and regions. ...
Thailand is a big country - 513,120 km² to be exact. Most travellers would know or have visited Bangkok, beach resort of Phuket, seaside town of Pattaya or the northern cities of Chiang Mai at some point of their trips to Thailand. But the name Khao Kho may not register on most travellers' mind. With this travelogue, I hope readers will place Khao Kho- Northern Thailand's "little Switzerland" in the highlands in their bucket...
This Thailand self-drive vacation to Khao Yai and Ayutthaya was organised to assess the feasibility of self-driving which allows more flexibility and lower cost. With the infamous Bangkok traffic jams hovering in most readers' minds, the thought of self-driving in Thailand can be a non-starter. But this travelogue will serve to clear some doubts for a better experience of this laid-back region with many beautiful attractions.
Khao Yai...
Western Australia has always been many Asians' (especially Singaporeans) fave destination in Down Under. It's in the same time zone and we are primed for a fabulous vacation after a quick 4.5-hours flight. Perth is the gateway to the Coral Coast, which is ideal for travelers who enjoy road trips, beautiful scenery, wildlife, and adventures away from touristy locations. You can observe wild dolphins up-close at...
