Preeti was invited to our Follow Your Heart Travel Experience to Turkey by our mutual friend Sherin. She also came the farthest – Australia! 🙂 Her quiet demeanour, gentle smile and relaxed yet fun personality made her an absolute treat to have on our trip! “Got back...

Now let’s just make this clear: I am NO chef. Not even in the SLIGHTEST. But because my husband is, I DO know a thing or two about spices 🙂 And Moroccan ones were awesome! We went to a place called 100,000 spices and were able to select spices and know what dishes to use...

One of the places I love to visit for holidays close to Manila is Puerto Galera on Mindoro. We drive a couple hours, go on a boat for an hour, and there tucked away on a pretty quiet beach is the resort we frequent. I happened upon the Mangyan village by accident. And it was the...

Assisi. A medieval Francisan commune in the heart of Umbria. Known for being the birthplace of the St Francis who founded the religious order in 1208, it has also been declared as aUNESCO World Heritage site. (Can I JUST say that I LOVE that all my Follow Your Heart Travel...

Istanbul. What an INCREDIBLE city. I have spent a considerable amount of time there, although it’s never enough. With 4 trips there in the last 4 years, I have many places still on my list to discover in Istanbul. But one place that never disappoints is the Galata District....
