Trip Moments Recommendations
best for solo
One of my favourite beaches with the famous lighthouse. Have been here dozens of times and each visit is such a soothing experience. The beach offers beautiful sandy shores and clear waters, perfect for a relaxing day out. As a BTS fan, it was thrilling to visit a location associated with the group.
The beach is easily accessible, just a 15-minute bus ride from Jeju Airport. The views, especially during sunset, are breathtaking, making it a great spot for some Instagram-worthy photos. Overall, a great visit anytime of the day.

best beach in jeju
For a solo traveller, this is probably the best beach in Jeju. Especially for those who enjoy chilling at beaches that feel liberating. The top beaches in Jeju like Hyupjae had so many rules, crowded with sunbrella everywhere, and blocked off with lifeguards preventing you from exploring beyond the shallow boring water.
Unlike those beaches, this beach is open and you can endlessly snorkel around the rocks, with a small beach where you can lay out your beach towels. It has the chill cool clean and relaxing beach vibe to heal the soul unlike most touristy beaches in Jeju.

Labuan banjo – Home of the Komodo Dragon
If you love the island, you must not miss Labuan Bajo
I originally planned to travel to Bali, but I was blown away by Padar Island. I immediately bought a domestic flight (about 4,000 round trip) to go to the home of the Komodo dragon. Once I arrived, everything was amazing, the endless blue sky. The recently renovated port cities are full of resort atmosphere. Whether you simply like the sea or want to go diving, this is a great choice. The local accommodation is new and cheap, the transportation is simple and convenient, and there are various online and beautiful restaurants. But the price is cheap. There are many shops selling itineraries along the road. If you are lucky, you can also book a discounted price. Life here means going to sea every day. There are countless diving spots to explore in the entire Komodo National Park, which is also highly recommended. On a 2-3 day liveaboard trip, you can explore various small islands, including one of the few pink sand beaches in the world, the sunrise at Padar Island Crescent Bay, the sunset with bats flying in the sky, Komodo dragons... and the opportunity to snorkel. See Manta!
It is recommended that everyone must experience a lot of touching things in their lifetime😍😍😍#beaches #Labraunbajo #komodo #100 Ways to Travel

Exploring the Southern Charm of Praslin, Seychelles 🌴 A Perfect Day Itinerary
If you are ready to see Seychelles beyond the iconic spots, the southern side of Praslin is a beautiful and tranquil area, perfect for a day of exploring! Here’s our day itinerary packed with extra tips for fellow travellers. #exploring #vacation

A few must-visit spots include Anse Consolation and Grand Anse, where you can soak in the tropical vibes and take stunning photos. Don’t forget to stop along the way - the secluded coves make perfect places to unwind. #beaches
🍴Around midday, head to Les Roches for a lunch spot with an unbeatable sea view. Enjoy fresh seafood dishes and the relaxed coastal ambiance. Pro tip: try the local creole-inspired dishes for an authentic taste of the island. Les Roches is popular, so it’s a great idea to call ahead for reservations if possible. #deliciousfood #localcuisine
🐠 After lunch, cool off with a swim at Anse Bateau. This beach is generally peaceful, with calm waters and excellent snorkelling close to shore. A refreshing swim here is the perfect way to cap off the day. #snorkeling #beachlife
Extra Recommendations for Travellers Exploring Praslin:
- Rent a car: It’s the best way to explore the island at your own pace, especially if you are planning to visit multiple beaches and scenic stops.

- Timing: Start your day early to beat the heat and enjoy the island in the calm morning hours. You will also have more time to explore without rushing.

This day itinerary offers a blend of iconic spots and hidden gems, making it easy to enjoy the relaxed island vibe that Seychelles is known for! #seychellessecrets
Okinawa Prince Hotel. High Cost-Performance.
Although the Prince Hotel in Ginowan doesn't have the luxurious facilities of the resort in Onna Village, all rooms face the sea and the nearby Tropical Beach, which is quite commendable. The milk-blue sea is suitable for all kinds of people. The hotel rooms are comfortable, and the pool and spa area are freely accessible. The buffet breakfast offers a wide variety of options, including various Okinawan dishes, making it a very pleasant stay.
Japan solo travel for 18 days Day 10 Kyoto
#Itinerary sharing #beaches #KYOTO #Nishiki Market #Kinkakuji #OKAZAKISHINJA #OMIGINSHRIJI
Looking back on my 18-day solo trip to Japan in 2022 when the epidemic was just lifted
Get on the bus from Hankyu Umeda Station and get off at Karasuma Station. First go to Nishiki Market for brunch. After that, take the bus to Okazaki Shrine, take the bus to Kinkakuji Temple, take the bus to Okane Shrine, and finally walk back to Hankyu Electric Railway Return to Osaka.
Okazaki Shrine and Kinkakuji Temple are attractions that I didn’t have time to visit when I came to Kyoto many years ago. This time I want to make up for the regret! !
【Nishiki Market】
There are not many people and it is very comfortable to walk around. You can eat a lot of delicious food here. We ate a lot, including croquettes, eels, grilled seafood, strawberry daifuku, grilled shrimps, tamagoyaki, strawberry milkshakes and ice cream. We also bought I ordered small pastries similar to chicken cakes to eat on the road. When I look back at these actual photos, when I see the grilled seafood, I think it’s very salty! !
【Okazaki Shrine】
The shrine's divine envoy is a rabbit, so there are rabbit statues, so it has a special name "Rabbit Shrine". It is said that it is very effective in praying for marriage, safe delivery and pregnancy. The lottery is in the shape of a rabbit. Of course, you should buy one and take it home.
【Kinkakuji Temple】
The official name is "Luyuan Temple", and the ticket is very special with a blessing seal printed on it. The Kinkakuji Temple is really breathtakingly beautiful. The way the glittering golden relic hall is reflected in Jinghu Pond is really beautiful. I hope to have the opportunity to see the Kinkakuji Temple covered with snow when it snows in the future.
【Gogan Shrine】
It is located in an alley, quite small. When I went there, almost all the people were locals. The torii gate at the door was really shining with gold. After paying homage, I bought a small guardian.
My Malaysia Adventure - A Journey Through Culture and Nature
I started my trip in Kuala Lumpur, where the vibrant mix of modernity and tradition truly captivated me. Exploring the iconic Petronas Towers and strolling through the lively streets of Chinatown was exhilarating. The energy of KL is infectious, and the street food? Absolutely unforgettable! One important Tip: Stay near the city center to make the most of your time-everything is within walking distance!
From there, I made my way to Malacca, a city rich in history and charm. Walking through the colorful streets felt like stepping back in time. I highly recommend taking the Malacca River Cruise at sunset; the views are simply breathtaking! One very important Tip: Don't miss out on Jonker Street for delicious street food and unique local crafts.
Next, I headed to Kota Kinabalu, a paradise for beach lovers. The stunning beaches are perfect for relaxing, swimming, and soaking up the sun. I also had an amazing experience visiting Mari Mari Village, where I learned about the local indigenous cultures and traditions. One last important Tip: Make sure to try the traditional food served there-it's a culinary delight!

Unpredictable Weather on Senaga Island
The weather was unpredictable in early October, with periods of bright sunshine followed by heavy rain. The only constant was the strong wind, possibly due to a typhoon. The sea wasn't very clear, but the colors of the sea and beach were still beautiful, with a light green hue. Being close to the airport, you can also see planes landing 🛬.
There are plenty of parking spaces, but be careful of the cats when parking ⚠️. They might even steal your food 🤣.
The buildings here are predominantly white, and each small shop has its own unique charm. We tried the taco rice this time and it was amazing. You can choose your own flavors, and I highly recommend the avocado flavor with meat sauce and turmeric rice!
We couldn't get a reservation for the Happiness Pancakes, and the line was very long. Fortunately, we registered for a waiting list, and after a short walk post-meal, it was our turn. The service was quick, and there was a minimum order. Personally, I found the egg flavor to be just okay, but the combination of muscat grapes and latte was delicious!

Discovering a gem in Palawan
Port Barton is a beautiful and peaceful destination located in Palawan Island, Philippines.

Step into a screensaver in Guadeloupe
#summerdestinations #FrenchCaribbean #guadeloupe #caribbean #caribbean
You’ll have to pinch yourself every day to make sure you aren’t dreaming when staying on these beautiful islands as it feels like you’ve stepped into paradise!
A French overseas colony, French is widely spoken so you will have to brush up on your language skills to get by. This also means they are on the Euro and not Caribbean dollar. Shaped like a butterfly Guadeloupe is actually a series of islands and not one island. It also has a tropical and dry arid climate depending on where you are.
Be sure to try Bokits a local street food and sip ti’punch a local rum based drink. You will not go hungry here and if you love French or spicy food you’ll be in heaven.
With fairly consistent weather all year around (30c) this makes this an ideal winter getaway as well as a summer destination. However Though pleasant temperatures last year-round, August and September's hurricane season can threaten your travel plans.

Taking a Stroll at Xiaomeisha Beach in Shenzhen!
This time, I decided to take a leisurely walk along the beach.
After getting off at Xiaomeisha Metro Station, I found that the area was still under construction, blocking the original path to the lighthouse. So, I decided to walk all the way back to Dameisha Metro Station, which took about an hour. The scenery along the way was so beautiful that I couldn't help but stop to take some photos.
I highly recommend visiting this place. You can take pictures, enjoy the sea breeze, and gaze at the ocean. It's very relaxing and comfortable, even though the sun was quite strong and I ended up sweating a lot.

The lesser known gem
#indonesiatrip
While Bali steals the show when it comes to islands in Indoensia. There is an island that is quieter and prettier in terms of beaches and less tourist crowd. It's Lombok.
While not as developed or easy to get around as Bali. It has its own appeal. It may lack the culture aspect that Bali does best but the beaches you can find on lombok. And the sunset view points are simt amazing. As an individual trip by itself or combine It with Bali. It's a short flight away. Friendly locals and decent pricing.

An easy to get to and laidback island
#thailandtrip
Koh Lanta is an easy island to get to. I've had several holidays here. It can be clubbed with Krabi and Ao Nang. For shorter stays, you may skip Krabi and head to koh Lanta straight from the Krabi airport. It is about 2 hours. And love that it can be reached without having to get on a boat. There are two major bridges you will pass.
Once in koh Lanta, you're in a very laid back island. Not as crowded as othe backpacker hubs in thailand. Makes for a beautiful holiday with serene beaches and lovely places to stay. #thailandtrip #island #koh lanta #beaches #beachlife #trip
Kyoto Attractions｜The Birthplace of the Gion Festival in Kyoto, Japan—Yasaka Shrine
Yasaka Shrine in Kyoto is the head shrine of over 3,000 Yasaka Shrines across Japan. Located at the easternmost part of Gion in Kyoto, it is also known as Gion Shrine. It is a must-visit spot when traveling to Kyoto and can be included in a one-day tour along with Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Shijo Kawaramachi.
Transportation Guide: The most convenient route is to take Kyoto City Bus No. 100 or 206 from JR Kyoto Station and get off at Yasaka Shrine Station. Alternatively, you can take the Hankyu Kyoto Main Line and get off at Kawaramachi Station, then walk for about 5 minutes. Or take the Keihan Main Line and get off at Gion-Shijo Station, then walk for about 10 minutes. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
One of Japan's three major festivals, the month-long summer festival—Gion Festival, is hosted by Yasaka Shrine in Kyoto. The most photographed spot is the West Gate Tower, which is bright red and one of the "Seven Wonders of Yasaka Shrine". It is said that it does not leave rainwater marks when it rains, and spiders do not weave webs there.
Walking inside, you will find the main hall of Yasaka Shrine, which is very special. It is built in the "Gion-zukuri" style, with a single roof covered with cypress bark, but actually consists of two different buildings: the main shrine and the worship hall. It is designated as an important cultural property of Japan. The dance stage, located in the center of the shrine, is used for rituals and Shinto weddings. The building is adorned with rows of white lanterns donated by local Gion businesses, creating a dreamy and mysterious atmosphere when lit at night.
There are more than ten small and large shrines within Yasaka Shrine, each dedicated to different deities. There is the Sacred Horse Stable—the mount of the gods; the Okuninushi Shrine—the god of matchmaking and love, where you can also buy small Inaba rabbit fortune slips; the Beauty Shrine—popular among geishas and cosmetics company employees, representing beauty, purity, and cleanliness. The beauty water in front of the shrine is said to beautify the skin and purify the heart when applied, emphasizing that true beauty comes from within.
The area of Yasaka Shrine is not large, and you can also connect to Heian Shrine and Kiyomizu-dera Temple along the way. For those who love shopping, you can walk from the Kyoto Kawaramachi shopping district to Teramachi Kyogoku Shopping Street, Shinkyogoku Shopping Street, and Nishiki Market, all the way to the Shijo Karasuma shopping district's major department stores, and then take the Kyoto City Subway from Shijo Station back to Kyoto Station.

Xiaoliuqiu｜Unforgettable snorkeling, the stunningly beautiful Vase Rock, and the crawling Wugui Cave
Following snorkeling at Green Island in the winter of 2011
After more than 12 years, I finally succeeded in snorkeling in Xiaoliuqiu🎊🎊🎊
Life goals achieved✔️✔️✔️
It’s beautiful to see colorful fish and corals
There is a rule not to touch a big turtle, you will be fined 300,000 XD
Xiaoliuqiu in June is no different than an oven
You’ll be sweating profusely when you go out
No exaggeration, the body temperature is 40 degrees🔥🔥🔥
Play and sweat wherever you go
In addition to snorkeling away from the beach, it feels less hot.
Others are just sweating constantly🤣🤣🤣
Hat and sunscreen are a must to avoid getting tanned
Even when you turn the cold water on the faucet, it feels like warm water😱😱
It takes a while to cool down before you can get cold water
The instructor personally teaches how to wear snorkeling equipment
When snorkeling, you must breathe through your mouth, not through your nose❗️
Breathing through your nose will make you choke on water
When going into the water to see the underwater world, you need to bite the tube connected to your mouth correctly.
Carefully wrap a high-spec camera phone in a waterproof bag
Finally got the hard-earned snorkeling photos😭😭😭
Because I can’t take a selfie
I had no choice but to sacrifice my color to take a photo where my face was swollen like a piggy😆😆😆The more I looked at it, the funnier it became🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
During the snorkeling process, I took photos based on my experience (the sun was so big that I couldn’t see clearly on the screen🤣)
Wugui Cave is so difficult to navigate
The space is really too small🤣🤣🤣
It’s difficult to crawl and you have to squat very low otherwise you may hit your head accidentally😅
I think the most beautiful scenery photo to take is undoubtedly the Vase Rock😌
I really want to snorkel in front of Vase Rock again~~
Very happy to take a photo with the big sea turtle🎊🎊🎊
Turtle-shaped popsicles are priced at NT70 in the tourist area❗️
Xiaoyun chose the milk flavor
I chose the mango flavor
The scenery photos taken from Wanghai Pavilion look like postcards👍👍
I also saw a lot of turtles 🐢
It was a pleasure to meet the enthusiastic Brother Zhuang during this trip✨️✨️✨️
I’m also very grateful to Brother Jiacheng for the invitation👍👍
