How do I get around?

How do I get around Singapore? Where should I stay?

Where do I stay? Singapore isn’t the cheapest place for accommodation and it gives, ‘you get what you pay for‘. Where you stay does depend on your budget, who you’re going with and also what you’re going for. Having said that here are our recommendations: Orchard Road – ££Historic District Marina Bay – £££The Quays Chinatown – £Sentosa  Getting around: The bus service is super efficient and…

Where should I eat in Singapore?

Where should I eat in Singapore?

There are so many choices for places to eat: Wild Honey – I think this is a midpoint on the spending scale, and it is worth every penny. We tried their brunch and the pancakes were heavenly.Jumbo Seafood – if you really wanna ball out! But I think about this special fried rice often, it was a serious something. 10s across the board. I highly recommend.Hawker Markets; the biggest one is Chinatown…

What to see...

What to see in Singapore.

So, Crazy Rich Asians put Singapore on the map for us! It was always somewhere we’d wanted to go because of the Marina Bay Sands and Supertree Grove, but seeing it presented in such a beautiful way just made us want to go even more. Singapore is such a beautiful city state, it houses over 60 islands! but only 3 are inhabited. So what’s the lowdown on visiting Singapore? What should you do?…

BALI IS OPEN, OMG WHAT DO I DO NOW?

OK, so hold your horses! Bali isn’t open just yet as you can see from our previous blog post, but we wanted to give you some tips on what to do so you’re prepared for when it does! Indonesia made it relatively easy for tourists to travel into the country (pre-pandemic) and we can assume that once the easing of restrictions are allowed, things will hopefully return to exactly as before. There…

16 Dos and DONTs whilst travelling to Bali.

16 Dos and DONTs whilst travelling to Bali.

DO • Keep a passport page empty for a visa stamp! • Learn some of the lingo! English is spoken in Indonesia, but I always think it’s good to try and immerse yourself in the culture and to be as respectful as possible!  selamat pagi (good morning), tolong (please) and terima kasih (thank you) di mana aku bisa menemukan (where can I find…) • Expect some crowds at some popular hotspots •…

UBUD vs SEMINYAK

The island of the gods From Bali’s majestic mountains to the enthralling coastlines, the predominantly Hindu culture is hard to miss. The stunning architecture and myriad of temples encapsulates the spiritual vibe given off by the island, minus the hubbub we as tourists bring. Seminyak is more of a boujie beach resort area in the south of Bali, with exclusive hotels, villas, and beach clubs…
