A SOLO DAY Travelling Around Angkor Wat! (Solo Female Travel in Cambodia)

September 15, 2024 by hollyGS

As Jives was trying to sleep and feel a bit more human, I ventured out to find food to eat on my own. I found a vegetarian place to eat nearby after about a fifteen minute walk. It felt weird to be going alone, but I had travelled a lot on my own in the past, I just prefer having a friend with me, not sick in bed all by himself. Poor guy. The place was called “Banlle Vegetarian Restaurant”. […]

It’s Famous For a Reason!!! WAT TA PROHM! (The Overhyped Tomb-Raider-Temple?)

September 3, 2024 by hollyGS

https://youtu.be/eB7jvmgDKN0 Here is a video we made of our visit to Ta Prohm! We wandered around Baphuon temple briefly, which was small but right beside the palace. We were being relentlessly followed by a “tour guide” so we walked through this area pretty quickly before checking out the Elephant Terrace. Sadly Elephant Terrace was under construction, but this used to be the front of the royal palace. One million people used to live in Angkor Wat, making it one of […]

SIEM REAP Cambodia!!! First Impressions (Angkor Wat Tuk-Tuk Tour)

August 16, 2024 by hollyGS

We woke up around 5:30am hungry because we hadn’t had supper the night before, as our hotel kitchen closed at 9:30pm and we arrived at 10:30, too tired to journey out. Jives seemed to be showing signs of having the cold I had had in Singapore, even though I have been better for days and we had been pretty careful. I whats-app-video-chatted my mom and slowed her our room, which was pretty cool. I remember doing the same thing with […]

LEAVING Singapore and Flying to A MYSTERY COUNTRY (We’ve never done this before!)

July 31, 2024 by hollyGS

We arrived at the airport around 12pm and walked to terminal two, as that is where you get the bus to terminal four. We decided to get some lunch at a place called “Heavenly Wang”. We both ordered a rice and fish dish with peanuts and spicy sauce. It was pretty good and came to $15. The sauce was more sweet than spicy though… We then took the  bus to terminal four. Once at terminal four we went through immigration […]

Last Day in Singapore. Visiting a HOTSPRING and MANY Hawker Centres!

July 24, 2024 by hollyGS

The mall attached to the Marina Bay Sands had a river flowing through it with a gondola ride! We then took the metro to Lau Pasat Hawker Centre to have some lunch. The building was a very beautiful iron building, a very British Colonial style. We chose three types of Dim Sum (spinach, chive and vegetable dumplings) and Jives bought a beer. The Dim Sum was $7.80 and the beer was $25. We also got a $10 set with omelette, […]

The Gardens By the Bay, Cloud Garden and Canopy Walk SINGAPORE!!

July 16, 2024 by hollyGS

I woke up at 6:18 like clockwork and had a coffee as I wrote in my book. We went down to breakfast at 8am. Breakfast was slightly different this morning, I had noodles and soft boiled eggs. We set out on our adventure to the Gardens by the Bay at around 9am. We walked to Kallang station and took the train to Bugis station where we transferred and went to the Bay front stop. In the metro Jives played the […]

SINGAPORE’S China Town And Garden’s By the Bay LIGHT SHOW!! (Maxwell Hawker Centre and Carrot Cake!)

July 8, 2024 by hollyGS

We then jumped on the metro to Chinatown, where we explored the main street . The colours were so vibrant and lovely, with the multicoloured buildings and the bougainvillaea flowers. The Mainstreet of Chinatown has a glass covered roof and some really great street art! We stopped at a restaurant called “Fortune Garden Restaurant”. I ordered tomato and scrambled egg, a major Chinese comfort food and Jives got a grated potato spicy and sour dish with chilis and green peppers. […]

Little India, SINGAPORE ! Street Art Walking Tour and Diwali Market

July 2, 2024 by hollyGS

I woke up at about 6:30am and worked on updating my journal about the epic flight adventure. At 8am we headed down to free breakfast at the place next door called “Munch Cafe”. I ordered the vegetarian set with imitation fish and meat on a noodle base. Jives ordered the American breakfast with egg, toast and sausage. We both had coffees. A large group of Australian tourists came in wearing matching shirts and made a HUGE deal about it, I […]

Walking Around The Entire Singapore Bay! Merlion, Marina Bay Sand, Helix Bridge etc…

June 25, 2024 by hollyGS

We first thought we’d walk to a hawker centre nearby, but it was closed on Thursdays. We decided to walk to another hawker centre 15 minutes away, it was closed for construction….so we found a little food centre on Larong Geylang called “Food Haven” and decided to have lunch. We “bravely”, after 10 minutes of staring and being scared, walked up to a stall and ordered two plates of seafood fried rice. The man at the counter gave us a […]
