Bali, Indonesia
Did you know that Bali is called the Island of the gods? This island country boast beautiful beaches, dreamy rice paddies and rugged mountains. So much diversity considering Bali is only a province. Bali is the only province in Indonesia that has hinduism as its main religion, because most of Indonesia practice Islam. I find Balinese to be very spiritual, they respect both the good and the bad spirits. They have temples/altar at homes, too. Bali boasts a lot of beautiful religious sites which includes some of the most iconic; cliffside Uluwatu Temple to the south; Ulun Danu Beratan in the North (Bedugul); Tirta Empul Temple (which has a sacred…

Tips on traveling to Europe
How to prepare for your Euro Trip 1) Upon receiving your visa make sure you book your flights according to your given Visa validity. *Don’t overstay your visa. Make sure to abide with its rules so you won’t have a problem when applying for a new one. 2) Check the weather of your destinations so you will know what to pack. Although this would only probably give you a glimpse of the possible weather of that day. 3) Pack light (if you can) but seriously… this is a must especially if your going to ride the trains a lot and you wouldn’t have anyone to help you with your luggages.…

Vienna, Austria
Vienna is the capital of Austria and is dubbed as “The City of Music” because of all the composers that lived here including Ludwig van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This city is also called “The City of Dreams” because… guess what? it was the home of the first psychoanalyst, Sigmund Freud. We fell in love with Vienna and clearly understood why it is ranked as one of the best cities to live in. Vienna has so much to offer, from wonderful museums, palaces, food, history, and etc. I have to say Vienna is also one of the cleanest cities we’ve visited in Europe this year, even the tap…

Singapore
Singapore— the melting pot of Asia, a blend of eastern and western influences. This country is seriously one of the most disciplined and cleanest I have seen, I didn’t even see a fly here even in their food centers. Upon arriving in Singapore we decided to buy the Singapore Tourist Pass Plus for each of us, it is an ez-link card that gives you access to Singapore’s basic bus services, LRT and MRT. To be honest this was a wrong move because when I computed everything it definitely was expensive… if on a budget just opt for the ordinary ez-link which you can load and use to pay for different things…

Kansai 2017
KANSAI REGION— home to many cultural and historical sites. We visited Japan again but only stayed in the Kansai Region. So instead of buying the JR Pass again we just opted to buy the Kansai Thru Pass for 3 days which you can use non consecutively. The pass lets you ride the subways, private railways and buses in Kansai area but excludes JR trains. It was priced at 4,000 yen for a 2 day ticket and 5,200 yen for a 3 day ticket. Using the Kansai Thru Pass we were able to visit Himeji Castle, and travel to Kyoto and Nara. On our second day we visited Kyoto’s Nishiki Market…
