Changi’s Jurassic Mile

Earlier today, I did a 28km bike ride that took me to the Changi Jurassic Mile. This art installation was launched in late 2020 with a series of dinosaur sculptures set along the Park Connector that runs along the side of Changi Airport. There are several ways to get there. One can take the train, …

War Memorial Park

Singapore’s War Memorial Park is situated in central Singapore, a stone’s throw from the CBD. In spite of having driven past it several times over the past 5 years, I only got to walk around it this weekend.

Bali Memories

This time last year…  Given the situation with COVID-19, travel will have to wait. This is a distant memory from last year in Ubud. It’s one of the many resorts among the paddy fields where one goes to switch off from everything. Shot with the drone, which I eventually crashed… twice!

The Jewel at Changi

Singapore has the best airport, hands down. As if it weren’t cool enough already, a few weeks ago, the Jewel opened. A brand new shopping centre parked right in the airport complex, open to locals and travellers alike. If you planned to come to Singapore for a shopping trip, you need go no further! The …

Temples of Chiang Mai

In May 2018, I took a short break from Singapore to explore Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. I did a walking tour of the Old Town and then got a vehicle to take me around to the temples on the outskirts. There’s something very peaceful about the temples themselves, though once the tour groups arrive, …

Ko He

Earlier in May 2019, I took a short trip to Phuket. I had been working pretty hard and needed to recharge the batteries… and what better way to do that than flying a drone in a tropical part of the world. Ko He (otherwise known as Coral Island) is one of the lesser known islands …

The Jaigarh Fort: A Walking Tour

The Jaigarh Fort sits atop a hill that overlooks Jaipur. In the past, it was a safe haven with a direct underground tunnel from the Amber Fort which sits below in its shadow. Should Amber have ever fallen to attack, its residents could make their getaway to Jaigarh. In December 2017, during a visit to …

The Holiday Inn Resort, Batam

I’d been coveting this image since I arrived here. Earlier this afternoon, after a morning of thundershowers, the overcast environment provided the perfect light capture this image of the pool surrounded by the rest of the buildings housing the rooms of this resort.

Égalité

This was shot earlier today using my DJI Mavic Pro. This is the tennis court at the Holiday Inn Resort in Batam. I haven’t flown the drone since November 2017 as a result of either not finding enough time, or not finding a location in Singapore where I could fly legally (I hear that the …
