Missing all the adventures and the magic of exploring places never visited before. Here's the 2nd largest freshwater lake in Myanmar, where the people lead a special kind of life in houses built on stilts above the water (which actually would be my kind of nightmare because I can't 🏊 😂)

The good thing is I have a whole half year to post #travelthrowback since its looking like none of us will be able to leave Singapore to travel freely for the next half a year 🙂🥺😥 #sendhelp #PetiteWanderessInBhutan ✩-----------------------------------------------------✩

Droplets of rain were falling from the sky while the river below roared. Ugyen, always a very thoughtful guide, was following close behind us, umbrellas in his hands, ready to offer shelter. Our attention was bound for the old but sturdy suspension bridge ahead. My nerves were still a little rattled though, from sitting through a foggy road of an adventure on the drive earlier. Yet, our Bhutanese guides remained in high spirits, happy in their zone, happy to share with us their beautiful country. This is eastern Bhutan, a region where travellers would hardly be seen. Surprise and curiosity were often the only expressions I observed on the locals' faces. On hindsight, with international travel being close to non-existent now, it had been such a privilege to be able to see the world so freely back then, all before the Covid-19 pandemic. *deep sighhhhh*

This time three years back, practising social distancing in Stockholm by travelling alone 😅 Survived my longest flight (12+hr) to Zurich then shortest transit time (45min) ever; wandered alone on this first trip to Scandinavia; ate a sad though huge lunch cos I couldn't read Swedish text; stayed in a hostel for the first time (but private room la haha); hiked for some nice sunset views. Gosh I do miss the freedom of travelling! Half of me wishes for life to resume to normalcy soon, but the other half of me also knows our Earth wants humankind to remember this lesson well and hard. How about you? How's life going on at your side of the world? Do you miss life before Coronavirus? #throwbacktravel #lifebeforequarantine #covid19 #coronaviruspandemic #PetiteWanderessInSweden

Had no definite trips planned after Bhutan (& Hokkaido) last December, yet never could imagine that one virus could turn the world upside down so quickly. While any travel plans would have to be halted indefinitely, I feel grateful that the people around me are safe and sound. Nothing else is more important, actually.

This natural light and views at a 1,200yo monastery 😍 We travelled here specially for a day of meditation sessions and workshops 🙏 The inner temple nearly froze my legs off from the winter cold ❄️😅; only squat toilets are available (for the monks or guests); any construction improvement work depends on the villagers' voluntary efforts. It's incredible to see the community that Rinpoche built in this village in Trongsa, central Bhutan 👏🏼👏🏼 We also had the most delicious vegetarian lunch at the monastery, prepared by an elderly man who used to cook at the Royal Palace. As I stood here on my own during sunset hours, some cows ran free from their herder and I retreated backwards in semi-fear. Thankfully, Khedrup Rinpoche appeared and welcomed us to his hut for hot drinks 😚☕🍵 Wanna know about about this meditation trip to Bhutan?
