Happiness Is A Family Vacation! 🚘



I love to travel.

I like meeting new people, learning different cultures and exploring new places around the world...

I used to travel a lot when I was single, working in the travel industry many years back... Now a mother of 2 young kids with a busy schedule and other commitments. I travel less often, probably once or twice a year.

December is the school holiday and we would plan for short vacations to nearby countries like; Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, etc...Our neighboring country, Malaysia, is a great place for shopping, dining and sight-seeing. 

We just came back from Malaysia (Johor Bahru) and I took some pictures during the trip that I would share on my blog.

Transportation can be quite challenging especially when you are traveling with young children. To avoid the hassle of unloading the luggage and the long waiting at the custom, we hired a private car that take us directly to the apartment.


Thank goodness it was a smooth and pleasant ride, the jam at the causeway wasn't too bad and we reached the apartment earlier than expected.


Wow! I must say I really love the apartment...I slept well on this trip! 😄


The place is clean, cozy and spacious. There are 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen and there's even a Christmas tree at the hall for the holiday season. Sweet! 


There is an outdoor pool and a gym at the rooftop. The kids had a great time playing in the water... Since I can't swim well, I just chilled by the pool and enjoy the views...It's so relaxing! 😎


Malaysia is also a well-known food paradise! My hubby is a foodie and he took us to try many famous food around the city, we are either shopping or eating, all the time! Gosh...I think this trip has made me gained a few pounds. (Oh darn!😜)




......and I have a sweet tooth unfortunately, I get weak when I see a Macaroon!!! Yea, I know it's so 'sinful' to eat these, but an occasional afternoon tea shouldn't harm. Let's dig in! (We can always diet after the trip.LOL! 😂) 



Overall, it's a pretty enjoyable trip except for a little rain on and off but since we travel by car and spent most of the time indoors at the malls, cinema & restaurants, the rain didn't affect our trip. In fact, it's cooling to move around the city and the night markets too. 

Oh, I love the street food there and the Salted Egg Chicken is a must-try! It's so damn good and really addictive! Mmm-mmm! 😋

















...Before we headed back to Singapore, I caught another cute plushie at the claw machine to add to my collection. What a lucky day! (Hello Mr. Birdie! you are coming home with us.🐦)



I believe family bonding and spending quality time together is important. To me, it's not where I travel, it's who I travel with and as long as I'm with the people that I love, any place in the world can be a fun adventure together.



I enjoy family trips and outings. What matters most to me is seeing my kids having so much fun during this trip, it strengthens our family bonding and relationships.

Always make time for the family, spend as much time together and create happy memories! Happiness is priceless! I look forward to more family vacations to come...
