Butterflies, Nasi Lemak, and Lankan Delights!

Ah, the perfect start to a day out in Kuala Lumpur—a half-day trip, starting with the KL Butterfly Park and ending with some glorious Ceylonese cuisine. But first, let’s talk about the butterflies, nasi lemak, and everything in between!

We kicked off our mini adventure at 8am sharp, leaving home with a spring in our step and butterflies (pun intended) in our stomachs—not from hunger, but excitement. First stop? Nasi Lemak Tanglin! After a smooth one-hour drive, we parked easily, which felt like a small victory considering KL’s parking challenges. It was 9am and breakfast time!

Exploring the Art of Storytelling

I recently got to join a cool event organized by Sony Malaysia, where we took a stroll around Batu Caves temple. It felt like back in my college days when I used to attend lots of workshops, but this time, it was all about snapping photos with my Sony camera. It had been a while since I'd really dived into photography, so I was pretty excited.

Sawadee ka! Hatyai Series - Part 1

I recently had the incredible opportunity to explore the vibrant city of Hatyai, Thailand, and let me tell you, it was a trip filled with unforgettable moments and stunning sights. While the hot weather tried to challenge our spirits, my trusty companion - my camera, and I were ready to capture every moment.

Now, I'll save the detailed journey for another day, but today, I want to share some of the highlights of my trip through the lens of my camera.

Journey to the Perfect Chair

Oh, the woes of back pain – a familiar tale for many of us who've spent endless hours glued to our chairs, especially during the work-from-home era. The past few months have been a comedic saga of attempting yoga poses that made me look more like a pretzel and indulging in massages that left me questioning my life choices. Little did I know, my trusty old chair was the real culprit!


Cue the drama: my chair, a relic from the pandemic panic-buying spree of 2020, had been my steadfast companion through thick and thin. It had served as both my throne and my wife's pregnancy support chair. Ah, the memories – but my aching back begged for an upgrade.

Ipoh Chronicles: Of Temples, Tummies, and Tantrums

Hey there, fellow wanderers! Last week, I embarked on a short escapade to the quaint town of Ipoh, and let me tell you, it was a rollercoaster of laughter, food comas, and unexpected adventures. If you've been keeping up with my Instagram shenanigans, you'd already know that Ipoh is the place to be for all things exciting and belly-satisfying.

Our journey kicked off with a spiritual detour to the Pachaiamman Temple in Taiping. Picture this: a colossal Amman statue and everything in shades of green, even the vibuthi (sacred ash). It was so green; I half expected to see the Hulk performing aarti in the corner.

"Nandri solla unakku," I whispered to the temple, thanking it for the quirky start to our trip.

Riding Through the Storm: A Special Anniversary Delivery


It was our 3rd wedding anniversary, my wife and I embarked on a journey to seek the blessings of our parents, beginning with a visit to the temple. After receiving their heartfelt wishes, we enjoyed a sumptuous lunch at my parent house. But, I had a little surprise in store for my beloved wife—a Celine fresh flower bouquet that I had ordered days in advance to be delivered to our home.
