Check out this list to know what the Must Do’s are for your next trip. 1. Get a bird’s eye view of Langkawi and squeeze in some quirky museum fun too!

    Top 7 things you can’t miss out on when you’re in Johor Bahru

    31 May 2018 / 1 Comment

    Johor Bahru used to be a city that was generally overlooked as a destination compared to the metropolitan Kuala Lumpur and the historical tourist hubs of Penang and Melaka. However, it’s now finally beginning to come into its own, shedding its role as a mere transit town on the way to elsewhere and letting its unique personality shine. Here are several reasons why you should explore and discover Peninsular Malaysia’s “Diamond in the South”: Shop and eat to your heart’s content at City Square and Komtar JBCC Mall The two malls are situated right next to one another on Jalan Wong Ah Fook in the city’s Central Business District and…

    6 common travel mishaps that will make you regret you didn’t get travel insurance

    30 May 2018 / No Comments

    When planning a trip, do you briefly contemplate getting travel insurance, only to think “Nah, it’s not like anything bad will happen to me…”? Unfortunately, if you’re waiting for something bad to happen before you get travel insurance, it’s already too late. For most Malaysians, they would only think about purchasing travel insurance if they’re traveling over long distances or to high-risk destinations. However, it’s a good idea to be insured no matter where you’re headed, as you never know what may happen. Luckily, Traveloka has partnered up with trusted insurer Chubb Insurance Malaysia Berhad to offer customers comprehensive travel insurance plans that will allow them to travel worry-free. In…

    Top 11 unbeatable street eats in Penang that should be on your foodie bucket list

    30 May 2018 / No Comments

    As a state, Penang may be small, but food-wise, it packs a punch, topping most Malaysians’ list of favorite food havens. From traditional kopitiams to streetside stalls, Penang has ‘em all. It’s tough to keep anything a secret from fellow food-obsessed Malaysians, so don’t be surprised if you encounter a queue/crowd when you visit! Without further ado, here are the top street food stops you should add to your itinerary (as recommended by Aina and Abam Bocey): 1. Bee Hwa Cafe   Char Kuey Teow (fondly referred to as “CKT”) is synonymous with Penang – you’ll find it at most local hawker stalls and eateries. However, Bee Hwa Cafe’s take…

    Savor an iftar-worthy feast at a “Kampung In The City”

    28 May 2018 / No Comments

    Enjoy “Juadah Nusantara”, a myriad of kampung flavors in the heart of Petaling Jaya at One World Hotel. Normally, we’re not ones who are easily amused by gentlemen who boast of their skill, but by invitation of the Executive Sous Chef Saiful Baharin at Cinnamon Coffee House, who claims to have conjured up a spread of “sumptuous fares fit for a king”, we were admittedly enticed. Ah, Ramadhan is just around the corner, we thought. Why not have a look at the options for the daily feast – I mean – breaking of fast? And so we arrived at One World Hotel, tummies rumbling and arms open wide to greet…

    25 May 2018 / No Comments

    Islam may be the world’s fastest-growing religion, but it’s actually the youngest of the four biggest religions (compared to Hinduism, Buddhism and Christianity). However, over the centuries, Islam has certainly left its mark, the most visible one being its awe-inspiring mosques. From towering domes with glittering chandeliers to elaborate mosaics and calligraphy, you can spend hours appreciating each and every painstaking detail. In the spirit of Ramadan, let’s take a look at the Muslim world’s most enchanting mosques that you should definitely add to your bucket list of places to visit: Note: As expected when visiting any religious site, visitors must dress conservatively, meaning long-sleeved shirts and ankle-length trousers or…

    5 Outfit Staples For Travelling To Conservative Countries

    25 May 2018 / No Comments

    If you plan to travel and visit conservative countries like Iran, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates, it’s of the utmost importance to follow the local dress code and pick modest garments that are reverent of the local culture. When travelling to conservative countries, safety should be one of your top priorities, and part of staying safe is dressing to blend in, not to stand out. It’s quite simple to think that you’re not harming anyone by putting on some of your usual clothes like cutoff shorts and tank tops. However, when you wear such clothing in conservative countries, you’ll likely attract negativity, risk, and disgust. To avoid this, check…
