M.C. Escher Museum: The Mathematical Artist
Let’s get one thing out of the way. Even though I had two weekends in the Hague, I did not see the Girl with the Pearl Earring. In fact, I did not go to see any...

Leaving Varanasi on a Train Bound for Lucknow
I stowed my things beneath the bottom bunk, climbed up to mine, and breathed a sigh of relief. The train leaving Varanasi had not left without me. A detour for Banaras silk before leaving Varanasi...
One Key Choice to Sustain the Sustainable Journey
“You said you would help me think of a sustainability project. You haven’t done anything; I still don’t have one,” complained my friend from his habitual stretched-out position on my sofa. “I said I’d help...
"What do you say when you pray?"
I paused in the dim light, still seated on the floor where I was praying. The room was near-darkness, in the hour before sunrise. My room-mate Belle had sleepily asked the question from where she...
![I was not planning on making any more trips after returning from my last big trip. But, I realised tomorrow’s solar eclipse is fully visible at Tanjung Piai, Malaysia! I can’t say no to that!

[scroll for images] I noticed the new vibe of the airport because of these. Did you know that the new Jakarta airport has art around its fire extinguishers and electrical panels?? I was very tempted to take a picture of every single one, but since I was all businessy travelly… I couldn’t go all #travelblogger!

When I first shared these on my FB, they quickly generated disagreement. The first camp agreed with me that these are super cool and made the locations more memorable. The other considered them a safety hazard because the artwork obscured the safety devices.

Which camp are you?

![This temple within Melaka’s UNESCO Heritage zone lies at the end of ‘Harmony Street’, where Tukang Emas Street merges with Tokong Street. We explored the reason why it’s called Harmony Street - there are old places of worship of various faiths sharing the same street.

Very close in the next street is a little tomb. You’d miss it if you didn’t know the significance of the name upon it. Hang Kasturi was one of the 5 legendary warriors of the ancient Malacca Empire, but even among locals he is eclipsed by his more glamourous friends, Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat. Yet, I would argue that we are actually a lot more like him than the other two, and that we would do better to embrace him in this globalised age. [blog post link in bio]
