Exploring Marina Barrage
With the current COVID-19 situation, we have been unable to travel since word has come down that all Singaporeans should defer all non-essential travel. And so, bearing in mind social distancing as responsible citizens that we are, the mister and I brought the two…
NBH-123 Marina Bay Sands
Finally, I landed my hands on this nanoblock design. It was released months ago, yet strangely enough I couldn’t find it anywhere at my usual haunts (to purchase Kawada Nanoblock). I wonder if there are resellers stockpiling this to sell off at a premium price…
Hort Park, the Gardeners’ Paradise
Ahead of Paris hitting a major milestone (6 months post-splenectomy!) we had set aside a couple of days to bring her out for some fun in a new park. December is monsoon season in Singapore, and the weather has been largely erratic and wet,…

And home is where the heart is. Singapore has recently been plagued by weeks of unceasing wet weather. This, combined with Paris’ increasing lack of stamina and us letting the busyness of everyday life overwhelm us, meant that we have not been venturing out much with…
Reservoir in the Heart of the City
* While we love travelling, in particular to Europe and Japan, our beloved home country has much to offer too. This is the first of a series of posts we’re intending to share on this space to document our cancer-striken golden retriever’s adventures in Singapore…
