The cosy Kyushigai yakitori bar opened on the charming-touristy Carpenter Street here in Kuching just a few months back. And I do not remember the number of times I’ve been back there already. There’s just something about the chill vibes, the interesting background music (that isn’t blasting loud like most bars), and the interior that […]
Last weekend I took a day off and headed to the beach for the Big Kite Festival at Sematan! Check out the video above! Out of all 38 videos I’ve uploaded on YouTube so far, I actually found this one pleasant to watch and kept replaying it. May it’s also because my ridiculous dance moves […]
Thursday, 15 December 2016 marks the second time I’ve shared in front of a crowd. The first time was earlier this year at PechaKucha Kuching in April 2016Â with 9 other presenters (You can watch my bullet train of a talk here). This time however, it was with a bunch of bright, talented design students at […]
Hello! Here’s a quick update, just a rough catchup summary of July here. Things always seem to get so very busy after July, it’s so awesome! It was the same last year! Have no time to post process all the tons of pictures and videos of activities, inspiration and art that happened till the following […]
There has been a boom in pretty cafes in Kuching in the past few years. Last weekend, I was introduced to yet another lovely place called Ferandus. It’s name is based on a deer’s scientific name I presume. The actual name and a deer is painted on the wall but I realised I didn’t capture it. […]
Janani and I went on a stroll on the Kuching waterfront with our cameras last weekend. We’re really trying to make full use of our little cameras and challenge ourselves to take more interesting pictures in our little city. It is quite surprising that some of my friends asked where some of them are taken […]
It has been a busy week with 2 eventful Saturdays, hence this late Saturday post. This is me working at my favourite coffee place in Kuching, Earthlings at Soho. What I like most about the place besides it’s beautiful bright interiors + wifi, is their COFFEE of course. They actually experiment with flavours quite often. […]
So, I spoke in public for the first. time. EVER on 1st April 2016. That was at PechaKucha Night Vol.2 Kuching 2016. You can listen and see my presentation slides here: http://www.pechakucha.org/presentations/experiment-share-create As you can hear, my voice was trembling. I was really nervous. No matter how much I prepared for it, the first-time nerves just kicked me […]
At 7.30am this morning, Feast and Furious Cafe opened it’s doors for business. The colleagues and I came early to catch the firecrackers! Inside the cafe, you’re surrounded by vehicles and motorsports collectibles. Bikes were in the middle of the room, hanging on the ceiling and even stored under your feet! Under ground! Love these […]
I’ve always wanted to learn to dive and last week, I finally went for it and completed my PADI Open Water Diver Course in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah! I did it with Scuba Junkie, Kota Kinablu, and they are just awesome! Here’s how I felt before, during, and after the course! Jesselton Point Jetty, Kota Kinabalu, […]
