Gardens by the Bay is undoubtedly one of the most famous attractions in Singapore. It’s super futuristic and beautiful and is definitely one of the highlights for a first time visitor to the country. Between my husband and I we’ve actually visited 5 times, so I thought it was time to write a guide on […]

I LOVE Singapore. It’s one of my absolute favourite cities in the world and given my husband’s job often takes him there with work, we’ve visited quite a few times between us now. So, I thought it was about time I collated my experiences in to a series of posts on this wonderful tiny nation. […]

Finding a good hotel that feels like a haven to come back to after a busy day exploring is part of the joy of travel for me. I don’t mind being uncomfortable exploring, pushing my comfort zone and taking difficult journeys, but I do love an oasis to come back to. The Banyan Tree Kuala […]

Every itinerary I saw for Kuala Lumpur included absolutely beautiful pictures of a magical and colourful cave complex a short distance from the city centre, known as Batu Caves. I knew I had to add it to my list, and whilst I am really glad I visited, it was probably my least favourite stop on […]

Shhhh – I want to tell you about an absolute hidden gem. As our taxi pulled in to the side of a main road to drop us off, I wondered where on earth we were, but as we strolled through this deserted, beautiful, green city, it was one of the best days we had on […]

Happy Hannah was out in force. I LOVE Botanical Gardens, especially hot, exotic ones filled with beautiful tropical plants and flowers. It’s my version of a paradise, and so with absolute joy and delight I headed to Perdana Botanical Gardens, in Kuala Lumpur. They were so amazing they deserve a post in their own right. […]

Finally rounding off my series on my visit to Dubai is a review of our hotel, the lovely Shangri-La, which we settled on as our base for the week. I really enjoyed our stay in the hotel, and even better, we timed it with Lunar (Chinese) New Year which made for an even more fun […]

Never have I been to a mall like this. In fact, rarely would I even choose to go to a Mall – not my thing. I never thought in a million years I’d manage to spend 7 entire hours in a mall. And yet, I did, and could have spent longer. It could only be […]

Travel is my happy place, and sometimes when I travel, experiences happen which will stay with me for the rest of my life. When I’m old and coming to the end of my years, this night will be in my mind, wishing I could live it again. We walked down to the beach to where […]

I don’t have the words to describe the incredible experience I had on this day trip, and I don’t have the photos to do it justice. This was one of the best things I’ve ever done on a trip, and if I can show to you just 10% of how it felt to be on […]
