    Moving houses, again

    Moving houses, again

    After riding out the pandemic the last two years in Pasir Ris, we’ve moved out! It was an expensive and draining move (when compared with all my previous ones). Our condo block is the furthest from the pick-up area where the lorry is allowed to park. This meant that we had to hire movers to […]

    Thoughts before my next move

    The movers will be here in a few hours. Here I go again. For the nth time in ten years, I’m moving houses. The new address is different from all previous ones. I’ve lived in condos and HDBs. This is the first time I’m moving into an apartment complex. How is it different? It’s not […]

    I’m back home in Singapore

    I’m back home in Singapore

    I’m sorry. I had the intention of writing more on my blog during my 35-day workation in the Philippines. But when I was there, I felt like I was always catching my breath. There was nothing complicated about my month-long itinerary. Everything fell into place with accommodations, transfers, work, and family time. But I would […]

    Leaving La Union… for now

    Leaving La Union… for now

    I can’t believe 18 days has passed! This is the longest pandemic “travel” I’ve ever had. I’ve stayed at three different accommodations. I’ve eaten or gotten takeout from dozens of restaurants. I’ve visited the beaches multiple times. I took a crash course on surfing five minutes after logging out of Slack. I did remote work […]

    A sunset in Elyu + Photos from the past week in San Juan, La Union

    A sunset in Elyu + Photos from the past week in San Juan, La Union

    After seven days in San Juan, I finally saw what a sunset looks like from these shores. We’ve had clouds and scattered showers in La Union all week. Sometimes we’d get good sunshine but by late afternoon, clouds would roll in and block the view. It was also very cloudy today. But across the sea […]

    I’ve forgotten that I can be independent

    I’ve forgotten that I can be independent

    I don’t have complaints living with my boyfriend 24/7 since this pandemic began. I think what’s made our relationship last is patience. We rarely argue. We’re comfortable. We enjoy each other’s company. When I was in Hanoi last month, I thought I’d forgotten how it was like to venture off to a new city and […]

    Reuniting with my family in the Philippines

    I’m here in Manila! Cavite to be exact! I’m visiting again after two and a half years away due to the pandemic. I documented my first two days in a traditional video blog episode below. Feels great to be back in the Philippines. I hope I can get to doing the ten things I wrote […]

    Flying SQ916 Singapore to Manila

    Flying SQ916 Singapore to Manila

    Finally, after two years… I’m travelling to the Philippines! I mentioned in an earlier post the ten things I want to do during this trip. Hopefully I can do most of them. The terminal assignments are still “different” and my flight to Manila on SQ is from Terminal 3 (normally it’s T1 or T2 I […]
