Lucerne, SwitzerlandAm I the only person who hasn’t heard of Lucerne before this? Somehow, it doesn’t seem possible – yet Lucerne was everything I was looking for in a Swiss city: scenic, architecturally pretty, and heartbreakingly expensive. If my only complaint about Zurich was that it just wasn’t very Alp-sy, that solved itself in LucerneContinue reading #1849 | Wanderlust: Lucerne
Bremen, GermanyWe flew in to Bremen blind. Germanwings has this blindbooking function we’ve been wanting to try forever, where you pay 33Euros one way for a flight to a mystery destination which is only revealed once you complete your payment online. In my head I was dreaming of far more romantic destinations ie. Barcelona andContinue reading #1848 | Bremen Blind.
Photos taken with the Canon 500D on 50f1.8 lens and the iPhone 5s You haven’t experienced Germany till you’ve attended one of its beer festivals. You just haven’t. Cousin to the relatively more famous Oktoberfest, the Stuttgarter Frühlingsfest is conceptually the same thing – carnival, music, beer – but with less sweaty bodies and queues.Continue reading #1847| It’s not Germany without a beer festival // Stuttgarter Frühlingsfest 2014
Photos taken with the Canon 500D on 50f1.8 lens + Nikon 1 J2 on Pancake lens c/o Nikon Singapore Zurich, SwitzerlandWe had an afternoon in Aldstadt Zurich, which honestly seemed like the more expensive European cousin of every other city I’ve visited so far..

Berlin, GermanyAs promised, stories of a happier Berlin. Berlin is really living proof of how important the weather is when it comes to travel. After an almost completely miserable first day in the city de las Artes, the sun came out in all its brilliance on day two. We did so much more on dayContinue reading #1842| berlin baby
Stuttgart, GermanySo it’s been a month since I’ve settled into my new place in Universitat Stuttgart and about a week since I’ve finished Spring semester and started my Summer one proper.. and finally it seems like my life has some semblance of order – the past three months has had a sort of unshakably temporalContinue reading #1841| An afternoon in Stuttgart
Rheinfall, Northern SwitzerlandI did say road tripping was going to become a thing, didn’t I – last weekend, we rented a Merc and drove up to Switzerland with the main aim of trying swiss cheese and healing all ailments with fresh air from the alps. Or is that the fountain of eternal youth I’m thinkingContinue reading #1840| Roadtrippin: Rheinfall
Berlin Wall, GermanyMy first day in Berlin was spent wandering around the city in a haze of confusion – surely this can’t be it. After all the hype I’d been hearing about Berlin, center for the arts, city of quirks and character, the city in real life reeked undeniably of the morning after a party.Continue reading #1837| Wanderlust: Berlin Wall Brilliance
Old Town Heidelburg, GermanyMade a day trip up to the beautiful old town of Heidelberg, one of those gorgeous little European towns you find on the face of postcards. A lot of you have been asking me for day/weekend-trip suggestions around Germany, and Heidelberg is pretty much tops right now on my list. It’s smallContinue reading #1835| Wanderlust: Heidelburg
London, EnglandSo, it rained this one night in London and I was walking around looking like a hobo with my scarf swathing half my face.. Anyway, stares were had and comments were made about how I looked very much like a tiny asian terrorist so I started getting a little silly with the photos. BecauseContinue reading #1833| Being Suspicious in London
