All of my trips this year are concentrated in the Summer and as much as I love to travel, commuting in and out of the airport every couple of weeks really takes it out of me! Cue a weekend of paradise at Shangri-La's Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa. This incredible retreat in Kota Kinabalu is almost other worldly in its offering and has me utterly convinced that waking up to the sound of waves lapping the beach and to the sight of the sun rising behind swaying palm trees, is the ultimate key to…

There’s no doubt that “The Ritz-Carlton” invokes images of luxury, elegance, impeccable hospitality… the list could go on, for having spent decades crafting unforgettable travel experiences and delivering world class service, Ritz-Carlton has become a shining beacon of luxury in hospitality. I can hardly believe that I was lucky enough to stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Osaka during my visit to Osaka and it’s absolutely everything I’ve just mentioned and more.

It’s no secret that I love Japan, to an almost proudly obsessive degree. The quality and diversity of food, the beautiful sites, shopping, impressive level of service leaves little else to be desired, I can barely stay away. I spent a few days in Osaka last week (stay tuned for a “what to do travel guide”) but as accommodation is a priority for travel I wanted to shed some light on the new Minpaku law so that you’re able to find somewhere safe and legal to live when in Japan. This new law…

2017 was the year the airport was practically my second home. I took over 20 flights and spent countless hours in the air heading to cities all over the world all in the space of just 9 months. Even in the age of the “Travel Blogger” more than 2 flights a month is slightly excessive, no? Either way, suffice to say I know a bit about getting the most value out of travelling and in ensuring that I’ve budgeted enough to do so! Today I’ll be sharing some money saving tips for travelling and how…

The official first day of fall isn’t until the 22nd and pumpkin spice lattes aren’t yet available in Asia, so why not make the most of Summer while it lasts! Regardless of the date, if you’re making a trip to this side of the world in the next couple of months you’ll definitely still be catching rays. Today’s beauty collection will have you glowing brighter than the sun and then probably into Christmas by which time you might as well keep the highlighter out for sequins and glitter season…

So it’s been a hot minute since my last post! In that time, I’ve had an influx of family, friends and more friends come to visit Hong Kong, hence a short absence on the blog!

Illamasqua Beyond Powder in OMG is a beautiful shimmering champagne hue that instantly brightens and brings warmth to the skin.

Whether paradox or irony, there's something so complete and whole in the minimalism of Scandinavian fashion. Stutterheim have convinced me that a simple but iconic fit, and a neutral toned wardrobe satisfies all sartorial desires. All Stutterheim raincoats have undergone "severe testing in horrible conditions both at sea and in the city". Bring on rainy season is all I say. Tim wears the Stockholm raincoat in light sand for a unisex, straight fit. I'm wearing the Mosebacke raincoat for a…
