Sydney South Coast Vintage Biplane Aerial Adventure

Sydney South Coast Road Trip. MUST-DO Vintage Biplane Aerial Adventure

Welcome to my article on Sydney South Coast Vintage Biplane Aerial Adventure. As a kid, I was always fascinated by all the things that fly, from birds to aeroplanes cruising high in the blue skies and marking contrails. I always wondered, how amazing it would be to pilot a plane.  But as life would have it, my aerial ambition would remain a childhood dream.

Most of our encounters with aeroplanes are usually with the airliners we took on an overseas vacation. It gets you in comfort to your...

Quick Guide – Hahndorf, Australia’s Oldest Surviving German Village

Hahndorf - Australia's Oldest Surviving German Village

During my last trip to South Australia, I "stumbled" on a little piece of gem. Due to inclement weather, my travel mate and I chose to explore Hahndorf instead of the Pink Lake, as the dark overcast skies were threatening to open up. What we lost in our aborted plan, we gained by the visit to this little charming village that is Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement which celebrated its 179 years as this...

Sri Lanka Airlines – My first flight review

Sri Lanka Airlines Flight Review Singapore Travel Blogger Jensen Chua

Welcome to my "Sri Lanka Airlines - My first flight review". In my second resort exploratory trip to Maldives this year, I had the opportunity to fly with Sri Lanka Airlines, for the very first time. Changi International Airport offers a wide selection of airlines but I usually stick to my 'comfort zone' of carriers that I am comfortable with, based on branding, experience, and perception of value.
