Journaling The Journey
Singapore is one of those clean, cultured and cosmopolitan places that we enjoy visiting often. There is so much to see and experience in this diverse island nation that we make it a point to stay in a different part of Singapore each time we visit.
Krabi Town is a great launching place for all the amazing attractions that Krabi Province has to offer in southern Thailand. However, Krabi Town itself is not the destination that I dreamed of…..
Koh Lanta is one of the most accessible tropical islands in Thailand that is mostly unspoiled and very welcoming. The island is only 70 kilometers from Krabi and it’s international airport, but feels a million miles away due to it’s gorgeous strands of never ending beaches, lush jungles, pretty coral reefs and bohemian laid […]
Since we sold our house a few years back and now live exclusively out of hotels it is important that we save as much as we can. After all this is kinda our mortgage so to get 25% off is a nice discount. Hotels.com has a rewards program that gives a free night after 10 […]
Nowadays online shopping is the way that most of us shop, right? It is so much easier than going to a store and picking out the items that we need. The stores are busy and don’t always have exactly what we need. Yet online – well there we have so many options and it is […]

As many of my friends know, I love Thailand and so many of it’s glorious islands. Just not super touristy Phuket. We had 3 free nights at a Marriott resort expiring, so it made sense to give Phuket Marriott Nai Yang Resort and Spa a chance to prove me wrong. Located a few miles from […]
The beach at the JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay Resort and Spa is by far the best beach in Vietnam! I read many blogs and reviews of Vietnam’s beaches and was seriously confused. Some said that the shoreline of Vietnam was Asia’s greatest secret and others said that it was polluted and not really […]
Ho Chi Minh City, still often called Saigon, is a whirl of pulsating energy amidst it’s modern concrete skyscrapers, cosmopolitan restaurants and chic boutiques intermingled with French Colonial charm and dire poverty. Wandering through timeless alleys with high end shops next door to squalid eateries, massage parlors and nail salons, adjacent to incense-infused temples was […]
Just a 40 minute drive south of Da Nang is a magical ancient town called Hoi An meaning “peaceful meeting place”. Walking through it’s narrow streets set on a graceful river I felt like I was in Kyoto and Venice at the same time. This town was officially established in 1595, but has been influenced […]
