🇰🇷 Surprises Await @ Gamcheon Culture Village
#citywalk
Gamcheon Culture Village is probably the most visited and photographed attraction in Busan. Established since 1955, the village started as a collective housing project for refugees. Over the years, it has transformed into a village dedicated to preservation and regeneration of the local community.
We started our journey from the bus stop outside the village. Maps and signposts are available at many parts of the village and do not worry about getting lost. The walk through the winding alleys in the village was full of surprises as we encountered colourful houses and beautifully painted wall murals along the journey. It was a fun and memorable experience for us taking pictures with colourful backdrop at different parts of the village. We also enjoyed checking out the souvenir shops and cool cafes in the village.

Lau Pa Sat market in town
In the heart of Singapore’s central business district, there is a well-known local hawker market called Lau Pa Sat! It has actually become a popular tourist destination because of the delicious and authentic local food you can get here. Some of the famous food options you have to try are the Hokkien mee, bak kut teh and fried kway teow.
Also, I highly recommend coming later in the evening as that’s when they will cordon off one whole street from traffic to set up barbecued satay live stations! Customers can sit at the makeshift tables and chairs along this street and dine under the stars. It is quite the experience as you soak in the hawker street food bustle!
My overall rating of the experience: 5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Prehistoric Shelter - Catherine's Cave
#spintheworld
🙏 Let us welcome you to one of five show caves of the Moravian Karst. The Moravian Karst is regarded throughout Europe as a classical karst landscape and belongs to the famous karst regions in the central Europe. 🇪🇺 In the whole Moravian Karst more than 1100 caves have been discovered, but only five of them are open to the gublic - Catherine's Cave, Punkva Caves, Balcarka Cave, SloupSosüvka Caves and Vypustek Cave. All caves were formed in devonian limestones, that are about 350 - 380 mil years old.🧓
These caves represent an important part of the natural and cultural riches of our country and in order to care for them effectively the caves and the entire surrounding area are protected by law. The whole area was proclaimed The Moravian Karst Protected Landscape Region. That's why the visitors are allowed to go only on the pathway and it's forbidden to touch any dripstones. 💧
The Catherine's Cave is about 580m long. The temperature is about 7-8°C (ca 46°F) the air humidity is almost 100%. This climate is very good for the people, who suffer from respiratory problems. In winter there are the bats here. That's why this cave is closed (December, January, February).🦇
There are about 4 000 caves in the Czech Republic altogether, but only 14 show caves (five of them are here in the Moravian Karst).
Tips and Tricks ⁉️
🚆The closest city to the cave is Blansko. You can get there by train from Brno. As you exit the train station in Blansko turn left at the first roundabout and in 100m you'll see bus stop on your left. From there a direct bus to Cathrerine's Cave departs couple times a day.
💱Have some local currency on you so that you would be able to pay for your rides.
Enjoy!🤍❤️💙

🇵🇪⛰ Beautiful Machu Picchu ⛰🇵🇪
#localescapes
Machu Picchu was believed (by Richard L. Burger, professor of anthropology at Yale University) to have been built in the 1450s. However, a 2021 study led by Burger used radiocarbon dating (specifically, AMS) to reveal that Machu Picchu may have been occupied from around 1420 to 1530 AD. Construction appears to date from two great Inca rulers, Pachacutec Inca Yupanqui (1438–1471) and Túpac Inca Yupanqui (1472–1493).

Sensoji temple market
When you take a trip to Japan, the street markets of Senso-Ji are a prime attraction to visit over the weekend as that’s when many of the shops are open! The temple itself is a destination to check out but along the way there, you will find a whole line of stalls selling little trinkets, food and snacks, as well as some unique items like sword replicas!
If you are looking to get out of the heat, the area right at the base is sheltered indoors. There are some kid-friendly activities such as fishing with actual small goldfish, and you get to bring the fish home as pets! A refreshing spot for a nice weekend getaway.
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thailand getaway!
Amidst the traditional, earthy vibe in Thailand’s Phuket island, you’ll be surprised to find a modern European hotel right along the beach! Just a few hours’ flight away from Singapore, this is a fantastic location if you just need a quick escape over the weekend. With a total of 235 rooms and suites, you will definitely find a category to enjoy.
The hotel’s iconic facade is actually the interior of the building where the gigantic swimming pool is! Designed in an art-deco style, the spaces here truly give us a stylish vibe. The room we stayed in was also spacious and comfortable, a good experience!

My weekend getaways in Terengganu 🌊
#weekendgetaways
Terengganu is situated in the East Coast region of Peninsular Malaysia, which has a 240 kilometre long coastline along the South China Sea. As a result, there are so many beautiful beaches and islands in Terengganu.
During the long weekend, my friends and I prefer to travel to the beaches such as Kijal Penunjuk Beach or Kemasik Beach, we love strolling on the beach, listens to the sound of waves, enjoy the sea breeze, bathing in the clear sea water and admires the natural scenic. It's really the best weekend getaways for urbanite like us.

Great airport facilities
The most important elements of a good airport is that it has a decent variety of food and a clean environment. On our recent getaway to Phuket, their international airport lived up to these standards! Everything looked really modern and the spaces were hygienic and inviting.
While waiting for your flight, you can enjoy a wide selection of western menus, local dishes and even Korean fried chicken! We tried the local food and even though it was slightly more expensive than usual, it was very tantalizing. Additionally, there are many stores for you to get your souvenirs and gifts from, super well-equipped!

Walk along Bugis lanes
If you take a walk along the streets of Bugis, you will come across many restaurants and bars nestled in traditional heritage shophouses! We stumbled upon this quaint Japanese izakaya bar and restaurant that had a cosy ambience because of the pretty fairy lights inside. There were both indoor and outdoor seats, we chose to sit inside.
They serve the Japanese classic dishes like katsu don and ramen, but as I was craving garlic that day, I had the garlic fried rice and scallops with minced garlic. Everything tasted really good! Plus the portions were filling and satisfying. A not-so-good point would be that it is quite a walk from the nearest train station so it isn’t as convenient.

Teramachi city walk
In the Kyoto prefecture, one street you can consider adding to your itinerary is the Teramachi street markets! It is not your regular kind of retail therapy as the items on sale here are pretty one-of-a-kind. Traditional Japanese face masks and outfits, handmade bags and even a customizable Japanese chop or seal! We found out from the shop owner that many people in Japan now still prefer using chops instead of signing their signature on official documents, so his business is still doing well. There are also stalls selling local sweets and desserts, some of which are pre-packed for you to bring home in your luggage!

Monochrome elegance
There is a well-known cafe in Singapore called P.S. Cafe with branches in different parts of the country and even in Shanghai! Since opening their doors back in 1999, they have been dishing out delicious western cuisine and desserts. The most popular thing to order on their menu is the shoestring truffle fries, super addictive especially when paired with the mayo.
During our visit this time, we ordered the signature burger and the beer-battered fish and chips. I could choose the doneness of my beef patty and it turned out pretty alright, just more chewy than expected. But the fish and chips was yummy and crispy comfort food!

The shops here are also mostly independent shops or boutiques with bespoke services, you will definitely find more than the run-of-the-mill, mass produced products here. Many of the bars open till late, so this place transforms into a different scene altogether in the evenings!

Alfresco restaurant by the beach
Many people enjoy doing short getaways that bring them closer to nature and away from the bustle of city life, so this place in Malaysia certainly makes for an ideal destination! With restaurants like these that come with gorgeous views of the ocean, it really keeps guests in a relaxed holiday mood.
During our visit here, my husband and I wanted to experience this for ourselves. Wow, we could literally hear the waves crashing onto the sand and the strong breeze that came with it. The food was pretty good too and they were really generous with the complimentary bread starters. It was truly a trip to remember!
