Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Secluded Sanctuary For Introverts

 Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Introvert's Perfect Sanctuary Picture credit: https://strawberryparkresorts.com/ I'm always on the hunt for an introvert's getaway. As you can probably tell, I love misty mountain retreats. The tranquility, cool crisp air, breathtaking view, the seclusion are just 😍 perfect for introverting. I chanced upon Strawberry Park Resort while staying at SunLight Suite during my last trip to Cameron Highlands.  I was admiring the night view from Sunlight Suite's compound when I saw a well-lit area on the adjacent hill and remembered thinking to myself "Hmm, that looks like an expensive place....but I gotta check it out!" As it turns out, it wasn't that expensive considering the comfort, the facilities, and the invigorating environment.  Hotel Booking I booked through Agoda for a 3-day 2 nights stay, without breakfast for RM720+. Before my trip, I emailed the resort for booking confirmation, coz you know how sometimes A

Adventure Time In Taman Negara Pahang - Day 1

Adventure Time In Taman Negara Pahang Image credit: Mutiara Taman Negara My last memorable trip was that rejuvenating retreat in Cameron Highlands . So, I vowed to make 2023 as memorable as possible, and visit new places as much as money and time would allow. This Taman Negara trip marks my first trip for 2023 and I would highly recommend all nature lovers to visit.  Absolutely memorable! It only took less than a month to gather 6 adventure kakis, plan, and book the trip.  Easy peasy lemon squeezy.  Accommodations in Taman Negara Pahang There are a lot of places you can stay in Kuala Tahan .  We booked Mutiara Taman Negara for convenience and resort vibe which I'm a sucker for. I just have this crazy attraction for a wooden chalet in a jungle. Anyway, Mutiara Taman Negara is the only resort that is located within Taman Negara, overlooking Sg. Tembeling.  They offered several attractive packages that include accommodations, meals, and activities. We booked the 3D2N Explorer Package

2022: What Have You Achieved This Year?

 2022: What Have You Achieved This Year? What a year.  Was it memorable? No.  Was it monumental? Also no. Did I get to do much traveling? Not really. Did I advance in my career? Also no. Honestly, 2022 is a quite stressful & frustrating year for me, especially in terms of work. When you are busy, stressed, and anxious all the time, time just flies past in a quick blur. Like "What the hell happened? where did all my time go?" Like "I'm getting older but what have I achieved?" And then I would start to compare myself with things I see on social media. Of people posting their life's highlights of career advancement, exotic travels, life milestones of getting married, having kids etc.  When I look at my year from this perspective, it's really pretty bleak. But if I changed my perspective, it's actually not so bad.  1. Grateful for my (physical) health Despite getting covid (like finally wohoooo!), more MCs than usual, and lots of aches here and there

Sunlight Suite: Introvert's Heaven In Cameron Highland

 Sunlight Suite: Introvert's Heaven In Cameron Highland I told myself I'll not revisit Cameron Highlands since it became so crowded, busy, and overdeveloped in recent years. I might have changed my mind after I found this beautiful hidden gem. Honestly, it really is challenging to find a place that ticks all the boxes for an ideal introvert's getaway in a touristy place like Cameron Highlands. With lots of research, you can and for me, that place is Sunlight Suite . Going on a long weekend, I already mentally prepared myself for the infamous non-moving weekend traffic jam in Cameron Highlands.  "Going to Cameron on a long weekend?! You crazy ahh?!" my friend said.  But to my surprise, the traffic was pretty smooth. It also helps that I departed quite late from KL (3pm-ish) via Tapah route and reached Sunlight Suite around 7pm.  Little English Cottage In The Tropics Moonlight Bungalow Picture credit to https://www.sunlightsuite.com/moonlight-bungalow/   Sunlight S
