Fly From Singapore To Kuala Lumpur

We all know how close Johor Bahru is to Singapore and vice versa. If we feel like crossing the border we're just a bus away. Just December last year, I went for a short day trip to Johor Bahru with 2 of my close friends that I have known since pri school. We all know there's this really famous "Ba Kut Teh" stall near KSL Mall but we opt for something different and went to a Korean restaurant instead. Their operating hours is from Mon–Sun: 12PM–12AM. Price range wise is really good for sharing. Portion wise is also very generous. We also visited the newly open Paradigm Mall and I saw news that they had open an Isaac Toast outlet. So being a die hard fan of the toast I had to give it a try.


Malaysia is known for their really good and affordable food and people just keep coming back for more. But do you know that all these does not just revolve around Johor? There are other parts of Malaysia such a Malacca, Penang and Kuala Lumpur. For instance, somewhere around late 2016 I went on a 3D2N getaway with my army friends, just to get a breather from the mundane things we do in camp.


But lucky I have friends that know how to drive, so we rented a car and drove around Malacca. The above mentioned are still accessible via vehicle in short distance but for longer distance such as Penang and Kuala Lumpur might take some time, so Traveloka Malaysia has approach me to share with my readers on what they have to offer. You can check out their link over here: Flight from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore


It's easy booking and everything is pretty much idiot proof. On top of that, Traveloka also have 24/7 live chat so can rest assure that you'll get your enquiries answered pronto. You can also follow them at Twitter | Facebook | Instagram

True Love @ Neverland Café
Here we are again with another food/café post. It took me long enough, but I finally had the time to sit down proper, open up my editing software(s) and start editing all my overdue pictures taken from my past café hop and oversea travels.
In early November last year, I went on a short getaway with my Poly friends to Bangkok Thailand. Prior to this trip, we had a bit of debate as to where and when is the best time for us to put away our busy work schedule and go on a trip together. But because we're all working adults now, it's pretty hard complementing as some of our schedules may clash. So after much discussion, we settled for a 5 day 4 night trip to Bangkok. But as seen from the title, this post will be focusing on True Love @ Neverland Café instead of my Bangkok travelogue.
Besides all the cheap food and shopping that everyone has heard of. One of the highlight of this trip is to visit True Love Cafe. Located in the middle of a quiet street in the neighbourhood, it is quite inconvenient for you to travel there by foot. What I'll recommend is to book a grab or take a TukTuk there. From my own experience, my friends and I (5 people) we took TukTuk from Platinum Mall to True Love Cafe for about 100-200 Baht? I can't really remember the exact amount but considering the fact we, 5 people squeezed in a TukTuk and travel to the cafe for quite a distance for 200 Baht - $8 SGD, it's pretty much worth it.

Korea 2016 - Day 1
Day 1 of my Korea trip. It took me quite awhile to edit the photos for my Korea trip and I'm finally done with it. I've also done up a video collated from my snapchat and I cannot wait to show you guys!!!



You know, I really had no plans or any itinerary planned for this whole entire trip. This trip was solely to let my hair down and enjoy to the fullest before I embark my training at Brunei. The only thing I knew was to help my friends buy their stuff, so I ended up going to Hongdae at Hongik University. I was all alone and didn't had anyone with me, so the thought of having no one to help me take photos was a struggle. LOL!!!



Many people have told me how difficult it is to locate StyleNanda flagship store located at HongDae. Yes, it was difficult at first but after some googling, I've managed to find my way there. Now here's my guide to StyleNanda @Hongdae.
First: Once you alight at Hongik University station, walk out from Exit 8. Once you walk out you'll see this blue building at your right side.

Photo from: http://celinedeschanel.blogspot.sg/2013/01/directions-to-style-nanda.html
How I managed to find StyleNanda is also thanks to this lady who wrote on that website. But still, the directions was a little bit unclear to me. Anyways, after you've seen the blue building on your right, TURN RIGHT and WALK STRAIGHT.

When you're walking, you will walk past this cafe called CoCo Bruni. Continue walking till you see that INVERTED TRIANGLE POLE SIGN. (As shown on the picture above) Beside the sign, there's a convenient like store that sells all your coffee, snacks and miscellaneous stuff.

Once you've reached the inverted triangle pole sign, TURN RIGHT, you'll see a 7-11 across the street on the far right. Walk towards it.

Once reached the 7-11, you will come across a cross junction. Stick close to the 7-11 side and turn left.
When you turn left, you'll see this long ass never ending street. Keep walking straight. You'll need to walk quite a distance so just keep walking straight.



Once you walk until the near end of the street, you turn left and you'll see StyleNanda flagship store. Its actually really visible and you won't be able to miss it.

The previous time I came, I regretted not taking enough pictures, this time round, I practically spam and spend more than an hour in the store. LOLOLOL!!!










If I'm not wrong, only the store at Hongdae have a photobooth and ITS FREE!!! Its the time where I unleash the Singaporean in me. LOLOLOL!!! When I was queuing up for my turn there's this few Chinese girls who're HOGGING the machine. LITERALLY!!!


Okay I admit, I had my fair share of fun at the machine too. Hahah!!! Well, its free. So.....


This time round, I managed to get myself something from StyleNanda, and also took more photos than I previously did. #HappyMe!!!
Afterwhich, I went to MyeongDong for more shopping. Just nice, the timing was where all the streets stalls are out selling stuff.




Met up with my friend for dinner whom he came with his Mom and brother. We had some expensive beef for dinner and had the worst alcohol (if you would call Soju alcohol) in my life. I think my tolerance for alcohol is relatively low. LOL!!!

Here's my outfit for the day. Wore a suspender culottes and a white top to match with it cuz I don't want my outfit to end up to flashy. Wore a hat to complete the outfit. Oh yah, my sandals was a steal from Zalora. The initial price was $39++?!?! I bought it for like $19.90!!!! :)

Seoul, Korea 2016
Hello there. It has been 2 days since I came back from my Korea trip. If you guys have been following me on my snapchat you would have seen how crazy I am over there. Hahaha! Go add me if you haven't. ID is donxkoh. GO GO!!!
So anyways, this time round I took more videos than photos to be honest cuz I wanna show more. Like you see video can tell more stories with photos IMO. So yeap. I'm still in the midst of editing the videos, and I can't wait cuz it'll be my first time using iMovie and I kinda like the quality of it.
Without further ado, here's the prologue of my Korea 2016 trip. Hahaha. Its like pretty scrapbook-ish kinda post so hope you guys don't mind. I just wanna try something new for a change. :)



So yeap. Till the next post. Hahah
P/S: I just realised I haven't finish updating my Taiwan 2015 Trip. LOLOL!!!
