    31 January 2019 / No Comments

    Here’s a PSA: Friends do not take bad photos of their friends. We all have been victimized by that one friend who simply does not know how to reciprocate goodwill with great photography skills. Raise your hand if this sounds all too familiar — At a beautiful beach, as the sun was setting, you and your friends took turns to get the Insta-famous, dramatic sunset silhouette shot. As the photographer-by-default among your friends, you were the go-to person for every stunning photo in their feed. Naturally, you were the last to having your photo taken.

    29 January 2019 / No Comments

Luckily for Malaysians (or travellers who happen to be in Malaysia during this time), there are still many more activities and places worth exploring, such as food hunting trips with your high school buddies or driving along a scenic route to get away from the CNY crowd. From charming small towns to taking a dip in refreshing waterfalls, use this guide to help you rejuvenate during the CNY break. Small Town Charm Okay, so you…

    School holidays mean that your kids’ restlessness goes up to new highs but you can’t pack them over to grandma’s place for the week, so, what do you do? Ask us, and we’d say KidZania KL is the place to be. Unlike other theme parks, KidZania is Malaysia’s first and only interactive edutainment theme park where kids and teenagers between the ages four and 14 get hands-on experience on real-life jobs through the attractions and activities.   So, your son or daughter told you they wanted to be a pilot, or a doctor, or even a firefighter? At KidZania KL, they’d get to douse blazing ‘flames’, ‘perform’ surgeries, or even…

    17 January 2019 / No Comments

    If you’re looking for a truly unique and immersive cultural experience, then make your way to Batu Caves to witness Thaipusam, a colorful festival originally celebrated in South India.
