Travel Diary: Tadom Hill Resort, Malaysia

Our super amazing friends in Malaysia planned a picnic while we were there. Luckily, it was on a public holiday because of the Chinese New Year and also Mr. Husband’s birthday. Not only the birthday cake and celebrations were a total surprise but, also Tadom Hill Resorts, built almost entirely out of bamboo was an amazing surprise too. None of us had been to this hidden gem before.

Fitness Diary: How I Started Gym

Since three people asked me to post my gym routine.... here is the first part.... 💁‍♀️

Disclaimer: Six months down the lane, I still consider myself a novice when it comes to using gym equipment to their full potential. I wanted to add physical activity in my life and although fitness was more on the agenda, I did want to lose weight too.

#Throwback ..... posing on a bus stop in Singapore in 2012!

My hubby has studied and worked in Singapore and this country has a very special place in his heart…. there are a plethora of memories of his life there as a student… some not so happy ones like arriving with very little money, struggling with finances, having had slipped disc but, most really good ones like the crazy fun of living in shared accommodation with his friends, graduating in film production and working in Walt Disney are just to name a few…. He used to very nostalgic after he left Singapore. 

Heart Talk: Choices

A few years ago Ahsan and I were at a very low point in our lives… both of us were jobless and we wanted to live in a country where having a job was the only way to secure a visa. With a friend, we sat down to see our options. The easiest option at that point required both of us to live in different countries. We both went silent on it. Our friend insisted on reasons and I couldn’t come up with any solid reason until he said, as if reading my mind, that I was allowed to say that I do not want to live away from my husband. But, he said that this ‘choice’ comes with responsibility and a price that we may have to pay. I was willing to choose a riskier path of trying my luck for jobs in limited time or going for another degree as an international student. Finding a job was very tough and getting a degree was costing us all our savings. But, it was a risk worth taking - for it was allowing us to follow our dream together.
