Review: Healing Touch Spa, Rendezvous Hotel (Singapore)

Healing Touch Spa has been recommended to me multiple times by many friends and colleagues. They have branches at various locations but I heard that the service quality and staff ability is not consistent across branches, so the branch you choose to visit apparently matters greatly. My colleague shared that she’s a repeat customer of … More Review: Healing Touch Spa, Rendezvous Hotel (Singapore)

Review: Baristart Coffee, Tras Street (Singapore)

My husband and I chanced upon this quaint little cafe while searching for a place to chill after checking out from our awesome staycation at Sofitel Singapore City Centre across the road (read about it here!).

Review: Sofitel Singapore City Centre Hotel (Singapore)

In a time of covid-19, many hotels are marking down their prices and increasing their package offerings to stay competitive.

Review: Dream Cruises 2-Night Bintan Island Weekend Getaway – Part 2

Welcome to Day 2 of our experience here on Genting Dream! Alas, it didn’t start out the way I had hoped it would as my husband and I overslept our alarm and just missed the 10am service timing for breakfast (as mentioned in Part 1, the inclusive restaurants only open for full service at specific … More Review: Dream Cruises 2-Night Bintan Island Weekend Getaway – Part 2

Review: Dream Cruises 2-Night Bintan Island Weekend Getaway – Part 1

Cruises are usually stereotyped as the kind of vacation endeavour mainly undertaken by the older folks, which I think is a largely accurate description. I’m probably the anomaly to that stereotype though, as the prospect of going on a cruise has never failed to delight me ever since I can remember. So when my mom-in-law … More Review: Dream Cruises 2-Night Bintan Island Weekend Getaway – Part 1

Review: Saccharomyces Beer Cafe, Fish Lane (Brisbane, Australia)

Saccharomyces Beer Cafe was one of the many interesting-looking places along Fish Lane, an arts precinct that brings together culture, entertainment, and food and drink. The entire stretch was decorated with Christmas ornaments hanging from above and beautiful murals along the walls. There was such a festive and hip vibe going on here.
