These are some of the highlights of my stories when it comes to travel, food, family, and anything that is under the sun. I took this as a personal challenge to myself to continuously share my personal adventures and feature them on this page be it in blogging or vlogging format. It all started when a friend asked me to share my experiences on a platform like this to inspire others. MY FOOD ADVENT

🦁🐘 Exploring Zoo Melaka!🐍🦒

Here are some of the animals we managed to capture during our recent visit to Zoo Melaka! 📸

The zoo is quite spacious, with a wide variety of animals to discover and explore. If you want to enjoy the experience at a relaxed pace, you can easily spend around 4 hours here, especially if you take your time going through the different sections and checking out the animals one by one.

There are also plenty of activities available, mainly animal feeding sessions, although these come with an additional charge at each station. The Reptile Section also requires an additional entrance fee.

One thing to note is that Dinosaur Island is currently closed, and we are looking forward to seeing what updates they have in store before it reopens. 🦖

Looking for authentic Thai flavours with a cosy and family-friendly ambience? Come discover Kampung Carabao at Taman Abad, Johor Bahru! 🍜🥭

We tried so many delicious dishes—from the bold and aromatic Tom Yam Seafood, fragrant Pandan Chicken, Thai-style Pineapple Fried Rice, crispy Special Carabao Fried Chicken and Crispy Kangkong, to their fluffy Thai-style Fried Omelette and the perfect sweet ending, Mango Sticky Rice! 😋

The cosy Thai-inspired interior and helpful service made the experience even more enjoyable, especially when dining with the kids.

🇹🇭✨ A Cosy Thai Ambience at Kampung Carabao

One of the things that caught our attention during our visit to Kampung Carabao, Taman Abad, Johor Bahru, was the restaurant's beautiful and relaxing ambience.

The wooden interiors and handcrafted teak furniture give the place a warm, traditional Thai-inspired character, making it feel cosy and welcoming from the moment you step inside. ❤️

What we also love is the spaciousness. Kampung Carabao can accommodate up to 200 guests, making it suitable not only for families and friends, but also for larger gatherings and celebrations.

The restaurant features a main dining hall as well as traditional Chiang Mai-style Khantoke floor-seating areas, giving diners different options depending on the occasion and dining preference.

For us, the atmosphere really added to the overall experience. It feels comfortable, relaxed and spacious without losing that traditional Thai charm.

If you're looking for a place in Johor Bahru where you can enjoy Thai food in a cosy ambience with plenty of space for family and group dining, Kampung Carabao is definitely worth discovering. 🇹🇭🍽️

Having breakfast at BRIX KLIA By Pinetree before heading back home. ✈️🍽️

The breakfast selection may not be as extensive as what you would typically find in a full-fledged hotel, but I would say it is decent and just nice for a satisfying breakfast meal.

There’s a good variety to choose from, including sliced fruits, bread, pastries, eggs (fried or boiled) congee with basic condiments, fried noodles, fried rice, and a selection of beverages. ☕🥐🍚

They also have a coffee machine serving freshly made espresso and Americano, which is definitely a nice touch to start the morning. ☕👏

Overall, it’s just nice — simple, decent and enough to fill you up before heading off for the day.
