Hey, what's up? Welcome to my blog.

  • Hey, what’s up? February has been an incredibly busy month—I’ve been off gallivanting (Learnt this word when writing this blog, quite fancy ain’t it?) somewhere on every single day off. Hence, this has somehow become the ninth episode in a very short span of time. It’s been exhausting, but since I’m traveling with my parents,… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up?  I recently went to Edinburgh and York for the third time! At this point, I might as well apply for honorary citizenship. But this trip was special because it was my dad’s first time in the UK. And since no first-time visit is complete without a trip to Scotland, I decided to… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? I visited York for the third time, and once again, I found myself stepping into a bookshop. This time, I noticed how many small, independent bookshops York holds, yet I usually go to Waterstones, lured by the familiar comfort of collecting points with every purchase. But then I saw it—a book titled With… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? Let’s have a chat about coffee in this post. There’s a huge difference between drinking coffee just to stay awake and actually enjoying and savoring the bitter, aromatic taste of caffeine! Back in medical school, I would head out at midnight just to grab a cup of coffee from Starbucks, Zeus, or… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? My dad came to visit me for two weeks, so I decided to show him around London and take him on a day trip to the Seven Sisters! This will be a short blog about our travels during his first weekend here, and hopefully, I’ll share part two next week—assuming our trip… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? One of my seniors from back in university recommended a sci-fi book to me. I had never received a recommendation from her before, so I thought, “Why not give it a whirl?” It turns out to be one of the best sci-fi books I have ever read. I recently found out they… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? Who here loves tea? Or at least pretends to when offered, just to feel fancy? This time, I’m spilling the tea (pun fully intended) on the types of tea I have in my collection. But before we dive headfirst into this aromatic world, let me share some tea facts. Don’t worry, I’m… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? Who’s here a fan of poetry? Or at least, someone who accidentally became one? I’m back with another poetry book review, and this time it’s Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur. According to Wikipedia (our trusty source for everything, including things we’re too lazy to look up properly), Rupi is a Canadian poet who… Read more

  • Hey, what’s up? Who here loves hiking or long walks? If not, well, this might not be your cup of tea—but hey, stick around. You might get a laugh out of my brilliant decision-making skills. So, many weeks ago, somewhere near the end of autumn in 2024, I decided to embark on my first-ever solo hike in… Read more

  • Hey, What’s up? This is a continuation of my previous Germany Uncovered post. I promise this one will be shorter (okay, that’s a lie), mainly because we only spent three days in Switzerland—and half of day one was spent on buses and trains. From Munich, we hopped on a bus to Zurich, which took about three hours.… Read more
