Traveling abroad

When traveling oversea with airplane for more than 5 hours, you need an eye mask for some good rest. Some red wine or traveling pill can be the supplement.


Maybe you can also bring a neck pillow




For sight seeing, extra camera battery is essential, really necessary. It shares the same importance as our mobile phone charger.

My virgin trip to Hard Rock Hotel, Penang

Sep 19 is the grand opening for Hard Rock Hotel, Penang.

I was among the early birds, reached there around 12am ++

I went into Hard Rock Cafe and the live band inside was really HOT !

After some good time inside the Cafe, i started to move around and noticed that there are many Rock Shop around the premise. Myself ending up with a T-shirt and it's a proud moment for me as I can wear proudly with the word "PENANG" !

An artists square behind Sacre Coeur

There is a unique square behind Sacre Coeur

It houses mostly painters

A boy trying to learn the trade

It's really a rectangular square, which attracts all the eyes and souls

Painted either using unique method or special tools

This lady scolded me for taking a photo, a small grey dot in my entire trip :((

Another cute waiter, just looks like Popeye the sailor man ...

Sacre Coeur

Sacre Coeur is a Roman Catholic basilica dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It is situated at the summit of the butte Montmartre, the highest point in Paris, France.



I notice that at major tourist spots in Paris, there must be one or two merry-go-round around

Moving around Paris

It's quite easy to travel around Paris with the Hop-on Hop-off tourist buses, the routes cover most of the city attractions.

Malaysian lacks creativity and innovative touches

Lately I have been to a few countries. When I am back to my home country, I start to notice that Malaysian are miles behind in terms of their creativity senses.

Malaysia is a beautiful country with special personalities. If we can promote a creative and innovative culture among individuals, then we can take our tourism, f&b, retails, clothing, and other services industry to another level.

To me, French, Italian, Singaporean, and even Thais are miles ahead of us. We really need to do some catch up in this Bolehland !!

Sandwiches in France

Sandwiches delivery comes with a designer box

In France, the sandwiches are available in multiple shapes and multiple varieties
