It’s the end of a fiscal year at work, and I’m also nearing the end of another year in this world. July to me is like New Year’s – I feel inspired to change, to start something new, to become better. The same goes for this blog, which I have obviously been neglecting for how […]
One of the best things to do when in Singapore is to eat. In our short weekend trip last March, I had to suspend my Ketogenic diet because how can one resist all of the amazing food this country has to offer? Just like the Philippines, Singapore’s cuisine is a influenced by the many cultures […]
After having lived in the metro for 11 years now, I’ve never really paid attention to its only amusement park – Star City. I have been to Enchanted Kingdom, which I always thought of as our country’s only decent amusement park, although still not comparable to the Disneylands or Universal Studios of other countries.

I have been following Marie Kondo (KonMari) on Instagram since I started out my minimalism journey a year ago. She has published two best-selling books entitled The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Spark Joy. I loved her idea of decluttering – thanking the things that have served you one way or another, before […]
I’m at the airport right now, waiting for my flight back to Manila, for my reality to start again after the long break over Christmas. I purposely left the house early (4 hours before my flight) because I didn’t want to rush so that gave me time to reflect on the things I want to […]
Dear 2018, As with all of the other things in my life, I’ve been putting off this letter to you to the last minute (technically, the last 2 and a half hours left of you) because I wanted to think things through thoroughly. In the end, I have nothing grand or dramatic to write, not […]
