NIVEA has created limited edition NIVEA Creme Tales tins, featuring a bedtime fairy tale with each design. The illustrations are designed by Joelle Tourlanias and the stories are written by children's author Udo Weigelt. On the inside of the lid of each tin is a link to the interactive animated fairytale.
With all the 3D cartoon and illustrations sprucing everywhere, it is really nice to see these classic, cute 2D animations and illustrations.

I was in Paris a day after the terrible event. It was a depressing period but Paris is a strong nation who will not let terrorism defeat them. My prayers go out to the victims and their families.
It's not my first time in Paris but my first time with my Playmobil friends. Here's some photos from our little exploration of Paris.

Lovely tableware (can i bring them home to add to my collection?)
Over the weekend we had a delightful afternoon high tea @ Anti:dote Lounge, Fairmont Singapore. We took the 'Antidote' tea set which comes with the black truffle scramble egg starter and refillable tea. The 'Oriental' tea set has the same food menu, the only difference is the starter (Dim Sum). Regardless which set you choose, the total cost per pax is $53 after tax and service charges.
Black truffle scrambled eggs starter (so so good!) with TWG French Earl Grey
Being a huge 'Mariage Freres' tea fan, I'm not fond of TWG (talk about brand loyalty). However these days almost ALL 5 stars hotels in Singapore serve only TWG tea. :( Well TWG is pretty good, but MF IS the true, original gourmet tea.
Anyway, moving on from tea.... the reason why we picked this place for high tea was because of how they present the desserts and sandwiches.
Yes, it comes in a 3 drawers vanity box! How awesome is this! The top layer has all the sweets, the first drawer has all the savoury, we have scones in the second drawer and biscuit in the last drawer. It was more than enough for 2 ladies. If you are looking for a unique high tea experience, do check it out. :)

Our original intention was to start from Venus Drive and proceed to the Treetop Walk. Unfortunately at the fork, instead of turning right to Peirce Track, I saw the sign wrongly and we turned left into MacRitchie Nature Trail... hahaha It was a super long walk and we finally completed the trail and exited at the Visitor Center after 4 hours of walk.
We were very excited when we arrive at the Venus Drive entrance and equally disappointed when we realised we missed the turn to the TreeTop Walk!
Getting ready to venture into the woods!
MacRitchie Park is a popular spot for jogging.
Taking a break, enjoying the view at MacRitchie Reservoir.
At the end of the trail, last glance of the park before we leave.

Exactly one year ago on 7 Oct 2014 - we dropped everything in Singapore and went on a 3 weeks adventure in South Korea. We started from Seoul then to Busan, Geojedo, Samcheok, Sokcho and finally back to Seoul to take our flight back to Singapore.
One of the village that left a deep impression was Gamcheon Culture Village in Busan. It reminded me of Positano and Burano Island in Italy.
Gamcheon Village (also known as Taeguekdo Village) was established by refugees from the Korean war back in the 1950s, resulting in a very run down area until it was transformed into an arts and culture village in 2010. The village, on side of a very steep hill, is an offbeat art-filled suburb that has emerged from the depths of poverty to become one of Busan's more unique architectural and cultural locations. Best of all, there's no entrance fee. Although I will recommend you to buy the English map (2,000 KRW) which is very useful and helps to donate to the village.
Although the village is not very huge, there are a lot of photography spots, I will suggest to spend at least 2-3 hours to stroll through the whole village and grab a coffee, some snacks at one of the rooftop cafe and enjoy the views!
However if you only have a limited time, I would recommend to visit these 'must-see':
- Little Prince & Desert Fox
- Stairs to See Stars
- Village Information Center Rooftop - best place to take photos from above
- Fish in Alleys
- Facing Each Other
- People, and Birds
