It is OK to travel to the UK in April (Tours & Travel)


We had 3 days of tour and 1 day free and easy. I booked all the tours myself via Viator. I have shared the costs and the links to where you can book the same tours from. Below is the list of travel packages we took advantage of:

DAY 1: Big Bus London Hop-On Hop-Off Tour:

I will say that I love this trip as it gave me a glimpse of the City without walking too much. I was 5 months pregnant with a twin in a high-risk condition and I prefer to do sight-seeing without the stress of moving too much. This tour gave me that privilege. I paid around SGD59++ per pax for this trip and I find it worth the price for the many places I have visited. This link is where I booked this trip.

It is OK to travel to the UK in April (Budget & Things you need to Know)


Photo is taken from: startuproar.co.uk 
My cousins and I decided to meet somewhere nice and halfway closer to where we are all based. I am living in Singapore, I have a cousin from the Philippines and another cousin based in UAE. We decided to visit the UK. My mom is also based in the UK so I find it a good idea to reunite with my family. I booked my flight end of Q3 of the year prior and I can no longer refund the ticket when I decided not to continue the flight as I was diagnosed with high-risk twin pregnancy. And since I cannot refund the ticket, my husband decided to come along, instead. 

Seoul Searching in January: Last Day (Day 3)



DAY 3: Isaac Toast, Hanbok Fitting and Picture taking, Lunch before Departure

We woke up early to finally make the Isaac Toast happen. 
The famous Isaac Toast in Seoul but they do have one now in Singapore Yey!

Seoul Searching: Day 2

DAY  2: N Seoul Tower, Love Locks, Meyongdong Shopping, Groceries Shopping, Street food, and Chicken & Beer

Early morning, we rushed out to queue up for Isaac Toast, the famous Korean toast in Seoul but it was close on a Sunday. And since this shop is very close to a 7-11 store, we then decided to pick up all the cute stuff in the store for breakfast. It is also one of my favourite habits when I go out of the country- to check on the nearest 7-11 or 24/7 convenience stores and pick up local stuff as they best represent what the city/country local goods can offer.

Seoul Searching in January: Day 1

I had a trip in Seoul, South Korea with my girlfriends last January 2017 and this experience is something that I’d like to share with you. I have searched for blogs which will specifically tell me how it’s like in Seoul in January and for some reasons, I never found one. L Hence, I decided to share my experience with you.
My girlfriends and I decided to have a quick reunion to catch up and the chosen city was Seoul. It was a 3-days, 2 nights trip and the intention is really to catch up and bond as we missed one another. One of my best friends is also a famous legit seller of branded goods in Instagram (please follow her- IG: look_for_less) and she highly recommended Seoul so we can shop and just have some fun-girl time. Two of us came from Singapore while 2 of them were from the Philippines. The flight they got was so much cheaper in the PH, aside from the fact that their flight was shorter from PH-KR. Ours was more than SGD700++ from SG-KR and it took us 6-7 hours to get there via Korean Air direct flight. The entire trip was smooth and we took advantage of the sleeping time so we can get enough rest as our departure time was at 1am.
DAY 1: Arrival in the Hotel; Seoul Afternoon Tour Including Palgakjeong, Changdeokgug and Namdaemun Market

Tips in Travelling to Vancouver, Canada on December (7-day Itinerary)

If you are fond of cold weather, Canada is one of the best places where you can have what you’re looking for. The temperature during my 7-day stay was ranging from 6 to 12 degrees Celsius. We travelled in Canada from Dec. 5- Dec 13 and we did have the entire 7-days packed with trips but with great relaxation. Sometimes, you go in a vacation and you’d want to have time to visit all the great places but you've sacrificed your time to sleep and relax. Well, our trip wasn't like that.

To achieve that, let me share with you what my Itinerary was:

FLIGHT ITINERARY

Carrier: China Southern Airlines

Going to Canada
08:00am-12nn: Changi SG- Guangzhou (4-hour flight)
12nn-2pm: Stop over to Guangzhou- This is really enough time for completing Immigration without getting so bored waiting for your next flight.
2pm- 9:40am- Guangzhou to Vancouver Terminal M (17-hour flight)
COMMENT: Over-all Experience was great. The only thing that we didn’t like was that you have to go down the plane and run towards the bus to bring you to the Terminal. It was a hassle especially when it rained and everyone was queuing down without a shelter. It was also cold in Guangzhou in December so-

TIP: Bring an umbrella inside your hand-carry luggage and prepare your coat as you go down. Preferably, the water resistant coat you plan to use for snow.

Last Day in Canada: Whistler, Tantalus, FlyOver Canada, Fairmont Pacific Rim

Day 7: 2nd day in WHISTLER:

We woke up early as hubby and I wanted to explore Whistler during day time. We had our breakfast in the hotel and the food was average for me. It is a decent breakfast but nothing really special as the choices were few.



Early morning walk, we were stunned by the magnificent view that Whistler has to offer.
