Lifestyle

Life in Budapest is very different from Singapore where I was born and raised. I enjoy living in Budapest as Europeans and Asians are fairly different. Culturally, language-wise makes living a little more exciting

Budapest

Budapest is a very beautiful city. It has spas, world heritage sites, interesting and weird cultures, sometimes :p This is my fifth year living here. It is here I started my family, my cooking and photography hobbies.

Photography

Visuals are very important. I love photography as it is an art that is so wonderful to enjoy from the process adnd the result. I have a cybershot camera while my husband Zsolt has a Canon D 350. Budapest is really a photogenic place with so many photo opportunities.

Bali, Plitvice Croatia, Amsterdam, Venice

We love places like these with a beach, a lake or seaside. Even Venice and Prague are both very attractive as a travel location. Our honeymoon was in Bali Indonesia, it's one of the most suitable place for couples.

Movies

We are pretty much movie buffs and I have the habit of collecting movie ticket stubs. The movies we saw are easily engraved on our minds and the good ones we blog about them.

Buda Castle | World Heritage Site

When my Singaporean friends visited me, they all fell in love with this place called Buda Castle. It is the historical castle complex of the Hungarian kings in Budapest, Hungary, first completed in 1265. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace and Royal Castle.

This World Heritage site was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill, surrounded by what is known as the Castle District, famous for its Medieval, Baroque and 19th century living quarters and public buildings. It is linked to Adam Clark Square and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge by the Castle Hill Funicular. This place is all about its special ambience. I love it!
