Health Assessment at Prince Court (July 2024) Time to derobe, spread ‘em and generally do things that make us uncomfortable. Ah yes, it’s medical month in Kuala Lumpur! We’ve been waiting four years for our first official health assessments since we first learned about them. And I don’t mean checking five things in your blood, standing on a scale, and…
The Journey into the Jungle We wouldn’t recommend coming all the way to Borneo without slipping into something far less comfortable…aka the jungle…for a true experience. Our comfort zone destroyer of choice was through Uncle Tan Wildlife Adventures which took us up the Kinabatangan River and allowed us to stay at a rustic…very rustic…jungle camp for three days and two…
With its warm hearts, amazing food, and stunning nature, Vietnam quickly won our hearts from the moment we landed in Phu Quoc until the time we left Hanoi. However, it was an experiment because this is the first time we’ve ever stayed in a country for the maximum visa stay without ever having been there. And while we absolutely loved…
Getting There: Hanoi----->Singapore After three months traversing Vietnam, it was time for a little culture shock as we launched ourselves into the immaculate and very developed English-speaking island country and city state of Singapore, population 5.6 million.

For our first visit, we covered a lot of ground, but of course, only scratched the surface of all the things to do and see here.

The high value accommodation selection certainly did. For the week, we chose to stay on Cam…
Arriving to Hue & Our Accommodation After a very pleasant journey on the vintage railway, we arrived to the historic Hue train station at around 5 pm and caught a $2.40 Grab ride from the station to our apartment which bizarrely feels like it is dropped in France. Although it’s about a 25-minute walk to the center, it’s incredibly quiet…
From Hue turned May (2024) so it was time to call it a day in the central part of Vietnam, as we only had one more month on our visa. This would be the most extensive journey, and only overnight in the country which proved to have a few hiccups, though nothing extreme, for our $30 “VIP” sleeper bus tickets.…
