Photos from My Malaysia Trip

It’s been crazy these past 2 days here in Manila. Heavy rains and floods are what we have been experiencing. I am thankful that I was able to come home before this hit. I arrived home very early Monday morning. I have only finished a few things since then because my little boy wants to be with me almost all the time. I guess he missed me as much as I missed him. Anyway, to start off this Malaysia series, here are some photos.

You gotta have the the cloud photos

We were in a hurry so the photos are not so good.

Giant Chupa Chups! It had 15 pieces inside. It costs around Php600. It costs more in Singapore!

Crazy traffic outside

KLCC

We only spent a couple of hours in KLCC because we were catching another flight to Sarawak.

Love this mall! It was huge and it had a lot of brands that we are missing here in Manila. Plus most of the stuff are priced just right, not too far from the original US prices.

These are some photos of the hotel we stayed in.

The toiletries which my companion enjoyed immensely

The sink glasses that I avoid after watching that documentary about US hotels and how the housekeepers just use a rag to wipe them. They use the same rag to clean the counters.

I love it when the hotel provides slippers, iron and an ironing board.

There are no photos of the scenery and the outside world. I went there mainly to get some decent sleep and allow my body to rest to recuperate. It was an impromptu trip. I decided to go on a Tuesday and got a flight on Wednesday. I was away for 5 days and I had some glorious sleep during that time. All I did there was sleep, eat and shop! More on my Malaysia trip next.

Oh, if you are interested in the food we ate, please visit my food blog. I will post them soon.

Soft Luxe Travels: Day 1 - The Journey to Vigan Part 1

In this post, we will start our journey to Vigan! The Night Before After packing our things, I did a few things for myself to help me relax and decompress so that I can sleep. I'm a night owl and not used to waking up early nor sleeping early, so I have to be strategic.  I painted my nails that night after all my chores, so that the nail polish wouldn't chip.  However, I forgot that I needed to make pressed sandwiches for our breakfast the following day!  Because really, what’s a road trip mom without freshly painted nails and a last-minute kitchen hustle? 😂 So, I had to do a lot of washing and hoped for the best that my nail polish will not chip! Luncheon meat, eggs, Kewpie Trust me, it tastes better than it sounds at 11 PM while trying not to chip your polish. That night, we also tried the Ube Halaya from Amira's. This was from our trip to Tagaytay . I'll try to make a review of this on my food blog . With everything prepped, I finally let myself drift off—half excit...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...

Holiday State of Mind

  Sometimes, a quick escape is all it takes to reset the spirit. Tagaytay always gives me that holiday state of mind… Even a short drive can feel like a retreat when your heart is ready to embrace rest. My son successfully finished his recital last Sunday and as a reward, my sister treated us to Tagaytay yesterday.  Getting Ready for the Trip I decided to use my BYS Golden Hour Palette for today's look. Makeup, for me, is part of the ritual—it sets the tone that today is special. Here are the swatches: From top to bottom: Polaroid, Candid, Aperture, In Focus, Portrait, Panoramic In Focus is slightly wet, like something between a liquid and cream eyeshadow. The color is gorgeous! I love Panoramic, too! Polaroid is a bit chalky and not as pigmented as the shadows in the Queen Bee Palette.  Here are the face shades: Highlighter: Illumination Contour: Ambiance I haven't tried Illumination yet, only Ambiance. I used it on top of my BYS Bronzer. It's a buildable powder, a littl...
