4 decades old!

 Last updated: 31st March, 2020, 11:40 PM It took more than a couple of months to plan his birthday surprise. I need to make sure that everyone would have fun, including the pioneer generation 😉.

My take on Sydney~

 Last updated: 19th February, 2015, 8:16 PM Sydney is commonly mistaken by many as the capital city of Australia. I’m guilty of that when I was young. Our initial plan was to go to Germany and BeNeLux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg) but apparently serving the country took precedence for hubby hence we have to “discount” our year-end trip … Continue reading My take on Sydney~

 Last updated: 13th February, 2015, 6:48 AM Sydney town. It’s weird that we toured this vibrant city on the 6th day. Weird but smart!

My take on Phuket~

 Last updated: 28th January, 2015, 5:24 PM I’d always wanted to go to Phuket but hubby always said NO because we’d been to Thailand already. Let’s face it we’d only been to Bangkok but he’d rather go to other countries instead. He felt that having been to 1 city of a country was enough. Move on … Continue reading My take on Phuket~
