I have always wanted to visit Laos, because I have visited all 9 other Asean countries. Recently, I had some work to do in Vientiane, so, i have officially visited all 10 ASEAN countries!



 I had a couple of hours to kill, so i decided to explore some of their famous landmark in the city.

My Cameron Highlands Express

I decided to spend my weekend exploring one of the popular tourist destination in Malaysia - Cameron Highlands.



It is literally one of the most popular hill resort in the country, and this highland destination still retains much of the charm of an English village.



It is a perfect destination for those who wanting to escape the hot weather of the lowlands, and enjoy the fresh air, surrounded by lots of greenery.

Propagating Spider Plant

Last year, I took a plant from the Free Tree Society. It was a 'Spider Plant' (Chlorophytum comosum) --which is a great plant for removing carbon monoxide. The plant also removes other toxins or impurities. I was told Spider plants are one of three plants NASA deems best at removing formaldahyde from the air.

I water the plant every other day and watch it grow. In just 2 months, the plant grew big and start producing flowers, eventually developing into babies, or spider plant spiderettes.

Since then, I have been propagating the plant. Initially I just wanted to have more spider plants, but I got carried away and propagate a lot of plants.

So, I decided to give it away as a gift. So far, I have given away 52 pots. I honestly cannot believe they all came from one little plant!

IMPORTANT POINT ABOUT SPIDER PLANT :
Caring for spider plants is super easy. They live happy outdoors but can also be a good indoor plant. They tolerate lots of abuse, making them excellent candidates for newbie gardeners or those without a green thumb. They won't die easily!

My Hanoi Express

This time around, work brought me to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam; which is known for its centuries-old architecture and a rich culture with Southeast Asian, Chinese and French influences.



 I only had a day to explore, but surprisingly, I had a great time! Enjoy the video!

Raya @ The Laikar's

Things have changed since dad left us. We remember him every single day, and Hari Raya has never been the same without him.



Although we are hurting inside, we know we have to be strong for each other. We also need to create good memories for the kids.



So, this year, we did things differently -- we cried, but we also had lots of fun.

My Milan Express

I went to Milan for holiday!



 It is the global capital of fashion, so I visited the largest designer factory outlet in Europe! But honestly I was not that excited about shopping as my attention was more on the architecture.



The Gothic Duomo di Milano cathedral is an architecture masterpiece.

I booked a day tour of the city, which brought me to many places. But the main highlight was the Santa Maria delle Grazie convent, which houses Leonardo da Vinci’s mural “The Last Supper”. It was a really majestic. Check out the video!
