A Short Getaway to Kuala Lumpur

 photo Petaling Street KL.jpg

Compared to our sunny island Singapore, Malaysia is enormous. Our neighbour has no lack of food or entertainment options too. The close proximity allows us to visit anytime we want – be it a short drive over the causeway for a movie, haircut, or lok lok, or a quick one hour flight to Kuala Lumpur. Widely known for their food streets and night markets, Malaysia plays host to millions of tourists from all over the world yearly. The capital, Kuala Lumpur, draws the most crowd. It’s not difficult to understand why, especially when the streets are lined with restaurants, and street food options, and there are numerous huge shopping malls to hang out at.

Happifi - Possibly the Best Pocket Wifi for Your Holiday

 photo Happifi portable wifi Singapore 2.jpg

There are a ton of companies offering portable wifi devices. Some at cut throat prices, but is the connection really reliable? There are data sim card options too but the amount of data is limited, and if you go on a really long holiday, like I did, the data sim might not be valid for the entire duration. I was going to Japan for a month and I looked through so many options. None of the data sim cards covered my entire holiday. And those that came remotely close to doing so (like 21 days) offered really low amount of data or are quite ridiculously expensive.

麻布十番松栄寿司 Azabujuban Matsueizushi - New & Fantastic Sushi Omakase in Azabujuban (Tokyo)

photo iPiccy-collage.jpg
I just came back from a month in Japan and one of the best meals that I've had in Tokyo was at this relatively new sushi restaurant in Azabujuban. In total, I spent 25 days in Tokyo in 2 trips, and I had tons of good food, so you can have a rough idea of the standard that you can expect here. The restaurant is located on the third level so you gotta keep your eyes peeled for the signboard as you walk along the streets. The 23-seater sports a contemporary look, ruled by darker colours.
