Describing my experience in this particular city as beautiful, will simply be an understatement. Continue reading Edinburgh, Scotland (Part I) →

edinburgh explore scotland travel

Marathon done! It was such a mental struggle. I cannot believe I did it, actually. I’m not as fit as I was back during NS. . I had a talk with God during this run. 😂 It’s funny to think about it now. I really wanted to give up. (Especially when I was at the half-marathon mark and felt like I almost died, but there was another half-marathon to go.) . This wasn’t just a marathon for me. 2019 has not been such a pleasant year, but I got through it by leaning on God. I feel that God has been guiding me, protecting my family and I. Though I feel blessed and all, I do want things to go right. Completing this marathon was exactly what I needed. . Well, it’s time to rest. I can only imagine the pain on my muscles as I wake up tomorrow.

iPhone 11 Pro night mode is sick. The realisation that my 3 YO iPhone becoming a piece of old tech is hitting me hard. . Let’s travel together more often @chuayongfu. @jr_venturing @weiliang3012 . #batam #indonesia

Feels weird to be back editing pictures. . #Melaka #Melacca #Malaysia

Same viewpoint, different time of day. . Free thoughts on fresh new pages day after day filled the empty spaces on every line. Rawness and truth found between the lines await for their discovery and exploration. Journeys rewritten from the grand fate gave revelations of the divine love for broken pieces. . Are spoken thoughts free? Those who heard them keep the thoughts for themselves. I wonder if they were worth telling. Would people remember? Would they keep the thoughts free, raw and true? . One thing for sure, the thoughts are longer private. Their very character has been distorted. Discovery and exploration add no value them because they were given away. . Therefore let the thoughts flow on those pages. Let them be free, authentic, and real. They represent the essence of your being. You can relive it. They welcome you to reflect and grow. And with the grace represented on the cross, you are renewed with every line. . #Melaka #Melacca #Malaysia

I did a little traveling this evening. . #Singapore

When Instagram meets reality. . In 2014, I became overly obsessed with traveling. It was the beginning of freedom, I thought, with the end of National Service and the starting of University with everything else that comes with it. I wanted to create a space for that journey and my Instagram became the place for it. . Almost instantly my newsfeed was filled with contents from traveling accounts, professional photographers, nomads, and other travel enthusiasts. Then I came across @thefirstpiper on my explorer tab. What an awesome journey of a guy wearing a kilt and holding a bagpipe with different landmarks from various parts of the world as the background. He aims to bagpipe in every country. Not only I enjoyed the adventures (especially the on going ones on IGStories), the account introduced me to the city of Edinburgh and I actually spent a semester in University of Edinburgh because I thought that it would be great! Edin has so many good memories. Anyway, I have this real feeling of appreciation of the genuine, fun and positive content by Ross. . In 2019, this happened. . Thanks @jr_venturing

Thinking about the next climb... This is getting really exciting. I have worries over the tiniest things, but surely I’m figuring them out. Let’s have courage. . I just need to train. And stop eating sweet things. This is going to be challenging 😆 . #Rinjani #Lombok

It takes a village to do it. It is quite thrilling to discuss this Secret Mission over coffee, bouncing off ideas at each other, listing things down, and prepping everything slowly. The best part is probably doing it in secret. It’s amazing to witness how God has blessed you @weiliang3012 and @jling_ling! The Bros and new friends pulled the decorations off so nicely together. Even the weather was great! . As part of the plan, the team was the second surprise of the proposal. Watching the couple from behind the bushes was like watching romantic movie in real life. As they zip-line down, as she realises that the entire set up is for her, oh, the suspense as he kneels down... I was resting my cheek on the tree branches watching the whole thing and hearing people go ‘aww’. . Thanks @megaadventuresingapore for helping us out with the recce two months ago. It was fun and really helped a lot! . #singapore

Dirgahayu Republik Indonesia! Best food, best nature, best jokes... . Ah, I can’t wait to travel to parts of this country that I have not seen. I took this picture when I was on an ojek from a village just outside of Malang going towards Bromo. It was a surprisingly well paved road on top of the hill. One side of the road was (I think) vegetable farm at the valleys. The other side of the road was the peak of semeru, as I got nearer to the National Park. . So many places to explore! Just a tiny area could reveal such amazing landscapes. . #Indonesia

Not a full-time traveler, but acts like one.
