Ladakh Day 2
At the point of the publication of this post, at least a month would have passed by. But my longing to return to Ladakh has not lessened. Day 2 would be one of the longest days we would have in Ladakh, because of the number of things we did, and the places we went. So…

India Day 2: Leh, Ladakh or Ladakh Day 1
Here we come to the motive of our trip to India – Jammu & Kashmir. Or to be precise, Leh, Ladakh. And so day 2 – We left behind the dust of Delhi for the mountains of Ladakh. We left our hotel in the wee hours of the morning to get ourselves checked in. By the time…

India Day 1: Delhi
As we stepped out of the airport, it dawned on me. Never, in my wildest imagination had I expected, what more, planned to be in India! The day was hot, but still bearable. Coming from the sunny Singapore that had been hitting some 34 – 35 degrees when we left, we were already somewhat conditioned…

A note on the India trip
While I tried to do live blogging as I usual have for all my trips, I found that outside Delhi, especially the Jammu & Kashmir region, it was near impossible to do so.

Penang Post-trip bonus: Peppermint Mocha
I’ve received feedback that this tastes nice – like Starbucks’s peppermint. I pulled this beverage off some random shelf in the hypermart in Komtar, so it might be available outside Penang. You can try ordering it off Qoo10 Malaysia as well: here.

Penang Day 3: Going, going, gone. (with post-trip update)
Asked the hotel staff if we could check out slightly late. Happily, it’s possible. So we checked out 2 places, the blue mansion and chocolate boutique (hosts chocolate musueum). Spent like 500 ringgit across 2 days buying coffee and chocolate. Insane. Post trip update We did an insane and risky thing on third day. We…
