4D3N in Chiang Mai @ An Adventure Filled with Friendship

Hello and welcome to my blog!
Since I got back from Chiang Mai in May, life has been super busy, filled with a flurry of activities, a multitude of tasks to do, and a busy schedule to meet, which explained why I haven't had the chance to write on my blog.
Anyway, even though this post is coming a bit late, I really wanted to write down all the special moments during the 4D3N adventure in Chiang Mai.
It's a trip that holds a special place in my heart, as I got to spend precious moments with my uni mates. 
I'm hoping that when we're all 60 years old, we can look back at this post and remember the amazing time we had together in 2023.
This trip was really excited because we all flew from different places; some of us from KL, some from Kuching, others from Hong Kong and Singapore. 
Our last big meetup was in 2018 when we went to Taipei, and because of the pandemic, we couldn't see each other for almost 5 years. 
Well, thinking back to 2018, when we last met in Taipei, we never thought it would be so long before we meet each other again.
Haven't been seeing each others for 5 years is quite long, especially when it comes to a long-distance friendships.
We all went through different experiences and changes in our lives, but deep down, we always missed the comfort and laugher we shared together.
Big thanks to our group leader, Stella Ling, and group assistant Yee Hong, for putting this whole trip together; from the beginning to the end, they've taken care of everything.
So, without further ado, let's get ready for this long post in Chiang Mai as I'll be covering all the interesting places, activities, restaurants and cafes we visited. :)

3D2N at Hyatt Regency Kuantan Resort @ Hotel Review at Kuantan, Pahang

When I was a young kid in primary school, my dad used to take us on memorable trips to Kuantan during our school breaks.
Those trips were always filled with excitement and adventure, creating cherished memories with my family that have stayed with me over the years.
One of the highlights during those memorable trips was my dad always book a hotel with a swimming pool, as he wanted us to have the opportunity to learn how to swim.
I can still remember feeling a mix of excitement and anticipation when we arrived at the hotel and eagerly headed straight to the pool. #hehe
It was really fun!
Honestly, the swimming lessons with my dad became a precious bonding opportunity for us; not only taught me how to swim but also brought us closer together as my dad often busy with work and couldn't spend much time with us.
Now that I've grown up, I always have a strong desire to fulfill my dad's travel wishes and take him to places he has always wanted to visit.
Lately, my dad has been talking about visiting Kuantan again, and after months of hearing him talk about it, I decided to surprise him with a 3D2N trip to Kuantan during Puasa month.
Knowing that my parents enjoy private beach and a room with a view of the sea, I choose to make our stay at the Hyatt Regency Kuantan Resort.

Hello everyone!
Can you believe it's already June?
Time seems to be flying by, and we're almost halfway through the year.
How has the second half of 2023 been treating you so far?
As for me, I can't complain; work has been keeping me busy, but I am grateful that I've still managed to take out some time for travel.
Just a couple of weeks ago, I returned from an amazing trip to Chiang Mai.
It was such a joy to reunite with my university friends after 3 years of lock down, and we all have a wonderful gathering together.
I can't wait to share all the exciting details of my Chiang Mai adventure with you in the upcoming posts.
But before we go into that, let's wrap up the second part of my Seoul trip in May.
In case you missed it, my previous blog featured part 1, where I shared my experiences exploring pop-up stores,  visiting cafes, indulging in delicious street food, and attending the incredible Seoul Festa concert.
It was quite a lengthy post, and I really appreciate to those who read it through to the end.
If you haven't had the chance to check it out yet, you can find it HERE.
So, without further ado, let's jump into the next chapter of my Seoul journey right away!

My Seoul Korea Diary Part 1: Seoul Festa 2023, Apgujeong-dong, Coex Atrium, Seoul Forest, NCT Comaz, Cafe Hopping

Hello everyone!
I am back from Seoul again!
Yes! You heard it right! I visited Seoul once again last month, and I couldn't be happier that I was able to return to Seoul so soon after my previous visit in Dec 2022.
This time around, I'm traveling with my two nieces, making the journey all the more special.
Believe it or not, the three of us have been discussing the idea of visiting Korea together for years.
It all started when we fell in love with the K-pop group Bigbang.
We were so passionate about our shared dream that we even created a WhatsApp group titled "Korea" just for the three of us. #lol
The fact that we finally turned our dream into reality this year feels surreal.
During the trip, we not only explore the beautiful city of Seoul, we also had the incredible opportunity to attend a concert while we were there.
The entire experience is beyond anything we could have imagined!
Although we didn't have a detailed itinerary planned for this trip, we decided to go with the flow, let the city to surprise us at every turn.
In doing so, we discovered hidden gems, had unexpected and unforgettable encounters, and created memories that will remain cherished in our hears forever.
Sometimes, it's the unplanned moments that become the most treasured and leave a lasting impact on our travel experiences. :)
There are so much memories to share and keep in this blog, so I decided to make it into 2 parts which allow me to include more photos and more information for you guys. 
Without further ado, let's get ready now to be transported back to the places we visited, the delicious food we savored and the laughter that we shared through the air! :)
