For my truncated exchange (due to COVID-19) I’ve decided to highlight a few experiences and thoughts to my life in Pittsburgh. As a city itself, Pittsburgh was far more built up and beautiful than I’d have ever thought. Taking a cab into the city (after a horrendous series of flights into the US – mostly...

THE KNOPE ARENA AND A CROSS STATE DRIVE BACK  From Kentucky it may have seemed like a good idea to drive straight back to Pittsburgh. However, with the state of Indiana just up north, there was no way I was not going to include that in the trip! While we had seen a fair amount... Continue Reading →

THE CITIES OF MUSIC AND BOURBON  Crossing the state lines into Tennessee, we headed to our next stop – NASHVILLE! The Music City! While there was a lot of excitement getting into the city, we were worried on the drive due to a tornado hitting parts of the state the day before we had arrived.... Continue Reading →

ALABAMA DAYS With three drivers in the car, the load of the drive was manageable. Additionally, for a novice driver such as myself, it was highly beneficial to have two experienced lads in Leevi and David alongside me. After getting the car (quite quickly I might add so kudos to Enterprise) we immediately got on... Continue Reading →

NEW ORLEANS Spring Break 2020! Usually, the week of from school in Singapore meant a week of grinding for mid-terms and ferocious preparation for the second half of the semester.

(At this point I'm currently on my exchange in Pittsburgh) Due to the crazy prices to fly to Toronto in January, travel plans to Canada were sady forced to be put on ice. However, this opened up an opportunity to take a trip to somewhere nearby for the weekend (last weekend of January). Thankfully, buses... Continue Reading →

After trips to Belgium and Denmark, it was finally time to head back to London for the remainder of my month in Europe. Spending time with my family over there gave me some time to relax from the past 10 or so days of being on the road. The rest was sorely needed after the... Continue Reading →

One 5am bus ride to Amsterdam and one short flight later, I arrived in Copenhagen! Pleasantly surprised by the metro system, I was met at the station by none other than..........EMILY! After seeing her in Imperia last year, it was so good to be reunited with her again! Even better, Dennis and Salim (two friends... Continue Reading →

Back on the road and back on the blog! After a whole year of non-lengthy travel (due to school and internships), i'm finally back on the road for my exchange programme! After an incredible comfortable flight on Qatar airways, I arrived in London for a quick pit-stop at my aunt's place before embarking to the... Continue Reading →
