Located in the Kyoto prefecture of Japan, Mount Daimonji (or Daimonjiyama) is well-known for having paths that form a gigantic “Dai” (大) character etched into one of its sides. Every year on 16 August, majestic bonfires along this path are lit as part of the Daimonji Festival (or Gozan no Okuribi), and it is apparently … More Review: Mount Daimonji Trail Hike (Kyoto, Japan)
River Safari recently underwent a name change to River Wonders as part of a corporate rebranding move, so for consistency, I’ll be referring to River Safari as River Wonders from here on out! This wildlife park is one of four (soon to be five) parks managed by the Mandai Wildlife Group, with a river theme … More Review: River Safari/Wonders, Mandai Wildlife Reserve (Singapore)
S.E.A. Aquarium is one of the many attractions situated within Resorts World Sentosa that I’ve been meaning to visit for quite some time already. Holding the title of the world’s second largest oceanarium, it houses more than 100,000 marine animals of over a thousand species across 45 different habitats. There are different zones with various … More Review: S.E.A. Aquarium, Resorts World Sentosa (Singapore)
My husband and I booked a Moreton Island Get Wrecked day tour via Klook (sign up with my link so we both get $5 credit each!) and got our tickets at a discounted rate (yay for savings!). The Get Wrecked tour involved slightly more “adventurous” physical activities, as compared to the Scenic tour that had … More Review: Moreton Island Get Wrecked 1-Day Tour (Brisbane, Australia)

I was momentarily confused while planning my itinerary until I realized they were two different … More Review: Riverside Markets, Brisbane City Botanic Gardens (Brisbane, Australia)
After an exhausting climb up to the Mount Coo-Tha lookout (which I reviewed here), having dinner here at the Summit Restaurant & Bar was a real reward for our efforts. My husband and I were initially undecided on whether to dine here as we also wanted to check out the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium before … More Review: Summit Restaurant & Bar, Mount Coo-Tha (Brisbane, Australia)
Most outdoor activities are on the bottom of my list of things to do when travelling, especially if they involve some sort of physical exertion or risk. My husband, on the other hand, loves these activities. So if we do engage in outdoor activities, it’s probably either his idea or me balancing out our itinerary … More Review: Mount Coo-Tha Lookout Trail Hike (Brisbane, Australia)
During an Uber ride to Dreamworld Theme Park (which I reviewed here) the day before my husband and I visited Sea World, our driver made a passing comment that Sea World was “a whole lot of nothing”. I took his appraisal rather seriously and thought to myself that he must know better since he’s a … More Review: Sea World Marine Theme Park (Gold Coast, Australia)
Boasting the title of Australia’s biggest theme park, with a good balance of both ride and animal attractions, I knew my husband and I were in for quite a bit of walking if we wanted to see everything the theme park had to offer. A ticket to Dreamworld also grants you access to WhiteWater World, … More Review: Dreamworld & WhiteWater World Theme Park (Gold Coast, Australia)
I was looking up recommended restaurants to visit for my Bali trip, and I came across this restaurant on TripAdvisor. The elaborate architecture was the first thing that caught my eye! The place was even more enchanting when my husband and I saw it for ourselves, it had an incredibly calming ambience. Upon our arrival, … More Review: Wanaku IndoAsian Cuisine Restaurant, Kuta (Bali, Indonesia)
