  • Hey travel peeps, . if you've been following this account a week ago, you'd have seen a video of me talking about how I just didn't get Instagram and was about to hibernate the account. . But then, I was reminded that I had joined @arrianeserafico's free #daretoshareIGchallenge which was starting that same weekend. It's an Instagram mini course + group challenge for Instagram. . I wasn't going to participate until I realized that I had been assigned to a group. In a group where we're supposed to encourage and keep each other accountable. . AHHH! Letting down strangers is one of my least favourite activities. . So I decided to follow through. . But wait, I was supposed to be home for the weekend and more, wouldn't I miss the posting timings? . Thank goodness Arriane had an editorial calendar with prompts laid out for us. I took some days to gather the photos (mostly stock photos, hey @unsplash) and even edited the #wonderwoman clip. . I plonked them all into Grum (an Instagram scheduler which I bought some time back from @appsumo) and went on holiday! . The rest of the week, I followed class instructions and interacted with the many amazing classmates of the challenge. These ladies are seriously doing Creative right. . The whole challenge had been fun and given me more assurance that perhaps I don't suck too bad at Instagram if I put work into it. . You'll probably see me more often here with aesthetically pleasing photos. . See ya!
  • I remember for my first solo trip, I memorised the map of Shanghai City because I was afraid of getting lost. 😂 As time passed, I slowly became less of a planner (is it ″more lazy″ or ″more chill?) and more of a wing-it-er. But I dislike it when people say, ″Throw away your map! EXPLORE!″ I can′t throw away my map, I will get lost. I don′t like getting lost. 🚦 And I need to know where that great restaurant is so I need my map. Travel the way you feel most comfortable. Okay?
  • Who here has a full time job and think that travelling is only limited to your 1X days of paid leave? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ That′s not true ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Try scheduling weekends into your travel calendar and you′ll be amazed by how much more you can travel. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The downside is, it can get tiring and slightly more expensive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But the upside is you get to travel so much more often. (104 days if you′re hard core.) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let me know: Do you add weekend travels into your travel diet? Why?
