 A visit to the strawberry farm for some PYO (Pick-your-own) fun during the  Australia winter season has gotta be 1 of the highlights of the holiday! We brought the kids to McMartins Strawberry Farm in Sunshine Coast. They loved the experience (as well as the juicy sweet berries) so much that we return for 2nd round after a day! The price for PYO was A$16 per kilogram when we visited. Do note that the farm is only open during the strawberry harvest season ie, May till October. Get a bowl from the staff and proceed to the patch! I suggest taking your time and walk to the farther end, as most visitors tend to pick the berries at the beginning, as they walked along hence the far end actually had more bigger and redder strawberries! There's no time limit, just take it slow and walk down the patch for more red berries. Budding flowers! Juicy Big Red Strawbies! K-bros got over excited & filled up the bowl in no time! After harvesting enough st...

We traveled to Queensland Australia during the June school holidays. It was a self-drive vacation, covering Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. I'm sharing our  Queensland (June 2019) itinerary and some information links here, detailed blog post to individual attractions and accomodation will be updated along the way ( highlighted yellow ). I hope you'll find the information useful! ♡(∩o∩) Day 1 (Friday) • 6:30am (Local Time) Arrived at Brisbane Int'L Airport after an overnight flight. -We bought data sim card from Optus counter at Arrival hall, it was only A$25 per card with 55GB of data!

We made a trip to May's Garden House Restaurant ,Bangkok in December. This restaurant is the first Totoro themed restaurant officially licensed by Studio Ghibli and opened sometime mid of last year. It was not really easy to locate in Sukhumvit area but easily a favourite for their Instagram-able surroundings and food! It does get crowded, especially during tea-time! Good thing, they have started online reservations recently so we need not waste our precious Bangkok time waiting in line for a table! Details at the end of the post. (♡˙︶˙♡) If you are a fan of My Neighbour Totoro (and the K-bros! Haha!), this photo is for you! ♡(∩o∩)♡ Even if you are not, the food can be a reason to visit too! The hubs ain't a fan of anime and theme cafes as the food served are usually mediocre but over here, the restaurant's setting is simple and somewhat elude Thai accents amidst subtle Totoro decos. Little details like this can be seen around the restaurant. That's a sw...
