Charlie Brown Cafe Hong Kong

5 March 2017 in EATS, FUN, HONG KONG

The Charlie Brown Cafe in Hong Kong has been around for some time (it opened in 2006!) and I knew about it all along, but only popped by for the first time last year in September! Apparently, the Hong Kong cafe is the first...

Today marks my 5th year anniversary of moving back Today marks my 5th year anniversary of moving back to Singapore! ๐Ÿ’ซ 26 June 2017, I said goodbye to Hong Kong and still to this day, miss aspects of my life there. But Singapore has been great for me and is home now. ๐Ÿ˜Š

5 years back in SG has let me start another new chapter and offered me plenty of new experiences and challenges. I've been through successes, failures and standstills. It hasn't been easy, that's for sure, but I'm happy to share that at this 5 year mark, I'm finally in a contented, balanced and happy place. ๐Ÿ˜Š It definitely took work, trial and error and heaps of God's blessings, but I'm here. ๐ŸŒป

HK, you're always a special place to me, so hopefully, I'll get to see you again soon. ๐Ÿ’–
๐Ÿ€ February 2022 ๐ŸŒป *Feb was such a full month ๐Ÿ€ February 2022 ๐ŸŒป
*Feb was such a full month! It was also a month that marked the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another. ๐Ÿ˜Š Some of my favourite moments:
- Lovely drawings at @natmuseum_sg and wanting to buy so many of the related merch from the museum shop (I didn't!)
- Lovely lunches/dinners + great people & conversations. Incredibly grateful for the people in my life. ๐ŸŒŸ
- The cutest exhibition featuring @angkukuehgirl
- Visiting a very nostalgic restaurant @oldschooldelights - brings back all my childhood memories!
- Pink skies ๐Ÿ’—
- Attended a tour of the 'Mapping the World' exhibition at @nlb.singapore - fascinating and insightful! 

Other moments that couldn't fit in here: my first VR experience at the ArtScience Museum, shopping and gifts and more new books! ๐Ÿ˜„ Ending the month with a thankful heart.
