I am a regular consumer of bird’s nest, but I usually go for the bottled one. It is a convenient way to enjoy bird’s nest, but once in a while I do get a little concerned about my sugar intake from the sweet syrup.

Recently, I met up with one of my friends who is now the founder of Nature’s Nest. This new brand in the market processes bird’s nest in an organic manner and makes it easier to cook and prepare. All it takes is 30 minutes of soaking and 30 minutes in the double boiler.

I just got back from my second trip to Niseko (Hokkaido) and boy, it was exhilarating to be skiing with a big group of people for one whole week. I get a lot of questions from friends, such as “You are going to Niseko again? Didn’t you go there last year?”, “You mean you just ski the entire week? Sounds torturous to me.”

Being born and bred in the tropics, we are probably very unfamiliar with winter sports given little or no exposure to it growing up. Through this post, hopefully I could help to answer questions you may have with regards to planning a ski/snowboarding trip.

Snowboarding (and skiing) is fun!

Read about self-driving in South Africa, safari experience and restaurants recommendations on The T List.

Pardon me for my hiatus, as I was away on a two-week vacation in South Africa. It was such an amazing trip with so many wonderful memories in the Southern Hemisphere that I think I do need another break to get over this holiday.

I don’t even know how to get my photos together for a short post on my trip as I sift through all the photos from the holiday. This must be the vacation where I took the most number of pictures. Each part of the trip was a highlight and an amazing experience.

I had the opportunity to experience the spa treatments whilst at Six Senses Con Dao. My GEM (short for Guest Experience Maker), Huy, checked on our preferred spa services prior to the visit and made the booking and arrangements for us.

Located at the end of the Six Senses private beach, the spa is located beside a majestic mountain, in the midst of luscious greenery. The treatment rooms and pavilions are furnished with bamboo and wood, creating a relaxed, soothing and zen environment.

The spa comprises of indoor treatment rooms and outdoor treatment salas, dip pools, as well as steam and sauna facilities.
