While now is not a good time to travel abroad, staycation offers an antidote for people like us in need of a change of environment.  So, I made good use of the $100 SingapoRediscovers Voucher. In short, the SRV is given to all Singaporean adults to spend on local tourism businesses in these trying times….

NZ self-drive: Christchurch- Kaikoura-Wellington

After much hiking and outdoor adventures, we recharged ourselves with good food in Christchurch. Boasting to have the best brunch and daytime dining in town, we entered into Hello Sunday Cafe, then discovered it was quite packed even on a weekday.

Hooker Valley Track

From Wanaka, we drove to Twizel via Lindis Pass which is another interesting terrain because it really reminds me of the standard Microsoft wallpaper.  At Lindis Pass, tussock grassland dominates the landscape and for many months of the year, one can expect to see snow in this mountainous area. Even though there was no snow…

Starke Digital Lock Review

The smart home experience unlocks right at the door entrance simply with the touch of finger. This is just one of the reasons why we decided to install a digital smart lock. An added layer of security, visitor access control, sleek design, the convenience of going keyless – no more keys to forget, no more…

Hiking Roy’s Peak Track

Wanaka From Te-Anua, we set off to our next destination– a 3 hours drive via Crown Range, which situates between Queenstown and Wanaka on New Zealand’s South Island. Our research mentioned that we should travel via Crown Range rather than through Cromwell, as it’s shorter and has better scenery. It turns out to be one of…

Yoon Salon: Time to Flaunt a New Hairstyle

With the current pandemic looming over the world, keeping us in our homes for months and weeks, “personal grooming” is at an all-time low.

Milford Sound Experience

Milford Sound is one of the top rated tourist attractions when visiting Queenstown.   It is famous for Mitre Peak, pristine rainforests and stunning waterfalls (namely Stirling and Bowen falls) plunging down with great force. During the right season, the fiords provide breeding grounds for fur seals, penguins and even dolphins. Boat tours are a popular way to explore this slice of paradise. We booked…
