Hali and Katherine traveling the world
I’d been wanting to visit a cat cafe since forever. In the Philippines, there’s a cat cafe called Miao Cafe in Quezon City, but we haven’t had a chance to visit it before I left for Malaysia. Great thing that, here in Kuala Lumpur, there are several animal cafes to visit! I went to one […]
Some say that Kapas Island (also called Pulau Kapas) is Malaysia’s most beautiful island or at least it’s best-kept secret. For those unfamiliar with this place, Kapas Island is a small island in Kuala Terengganu, in the east coast of Malaysia. As of this writing (May 2018), it’s one of the less popular attractions to […]
Sometimes, I’ll have a wonderful time but find it hard to explain in words. What makes you fall in love with a place and what doesn’t? There aren’t always hard-and-fast rules, sometimes you just do. Such is the case when I spent a weekend in Kapas Island, Malaysia. I first heard about Kapas Island in […]

Yes, yes I know. Resolutions are typically posted immediately following the New Year, not when you’re right smack in the middle of summer, almost halfway into the year. But this isn’t a resolution per se. It’s a realization that I had a while back. What do I mean by allowing here? It’s the same concept […]
I feel like talking about night markets (also called pasar malam) is similar to going to the heart of the Malaysian culture. In its essence, pasar malams are street markets that operate from mid-afternoon ’til night, and here you can find local delicacies and products made by local businesses as well as artisans. There are several […]
Living abroad has been a huge learning process for me, as it is for anyone who has decided to try their fate overseas for the first time. I feel like this is something one needs to personally experience to understand. Ever since I was kid, I’d read and watched stories about expats, but I could […]
Hali is the kind of person to capture small details rather than wide-angle views. It’s one of the unique things about him that I find endearing. It’s actually me who asks him to take photos that we can specifically use as travel shots. He also likes to capture wildlife, and after I’d published a post […]
