We got free tickets to go see the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix sometime in September. It was super thrilling and super loud. Just in case you noticed the car in the third photo, it’s a Ferrari instead of a F1 race car. They hold races for other categories of cars as well (who knew!). The F1 car was way too fast for my lens – evident in the second photo, haha.
We stayed at Nicky’s Handlebar Hotel this time while in Phuket. We loved the room, the pool and the service. There’s a very consistent motorcycle theme throughout the place which thankfully didn’t feel tacky. I had reservations before booking our room, believe me!
Anyway I’m super keen on visiting Phi Phi island, maybe next year. Has anyone been there? I would love to hear recommendations!
Always a month behind in posting photos – these are some snaps from our short trip to Phuket, Thailand. We said we’d get massages twice a day and we did! Also tried to visit every single beach along the coast on our scooter. The only bad note was the food, maybe we were down on our luck but every single place we ate at, wasn’t great. We stayed at the best hotel though! Photos to come in the next post.
If you’ve seen Moonrise Kingdom, you’d probably remember many scenes from behind Suzy’s binoculars. I finally sat down to watch it, loved it, and kinda wished I had my own magic too. This would have been what Suzy saw if she came along with me to meet Jackie back in August. I had such a good time with her and asked her like a million questions about life in Bangkok/Canada/Korea! It was also my first time bringing a friend around Singapore… and I think I could use a lot more practice, haha.
These were taken at the Tanjong Pagar railway station where they were holding this Hermes exhibition. Although, sitting on the stairs and chatting with Jackie was the best part of it. She took some lovely polaroids.

This is the park pretty close to where I live. I come here sometimes, just to enjoy some s p a c e. Being by the water is always nice too. Do you have a favourite hangout? Mine’s pretty embarrassing to share but what the heck, I go to a McCafe in my area quite a lot. Reason being it’s the only place where you can get a latte at 1am. Then Ben & I just talk about everything.
