International Boho-Chic Designers: Tia & Tan // India

I am so excited to launch this new series of my blog "International Boho-Chic Designers".

Best Food in Singapore: A Foodie’s Heaven

In Singapore two things are clearly important: Upscale shopping malls and Eating. With a variety of ethnicities combining, like Chinese, Malay, and Indian, there is an enormous assortment of architecture, religion, and most importantly, FOOD! I was in search of the best food in Singapore. I’ve shared on the blog quite a bit about Singapore,

Guide to Shopping in Singapore

When Ben and I decided last minute we’d go to Singapore for our visas, I will admit the first thing I thought of was Burger King. The second was shopping. I swear soon after that culture and local food came to mind… but I never claimed not to be materialistic! Plus, a girl has needs

While I usual love a walking tour, what was much more enjoyable in Krakow was wandering the well preserved buildings

War Torn Sarajevo, a Culture Shock

When people ask me what city I went to in Europe that was MOST unique, or my favorite, I usually bring up war-torn Sarajevo, Bosnia. I have mentioned it in other posts as somewhere with so much not-so-ancient history and an overflow of culture. I one day plan to go back. I couldn’t soak in
