Decor is up, my hong baos are ready--all set to welcome the #LunarNewYear! #GongXiFaCai everyone! (at Shangri-La's Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa)

Went for a late afternoon appointment with the barbershop I found online located in the 'quieter' part of the Old Quarter and finished late. Walked around the area to look for a cab and was drawn by the facade of this temple solitarily lit front an inner courtyard. Beautiful! #GeorgeTown #Penang #UNESCOHeritageSite #BeautifulDestination

Exploring one of #Georgetown's heritage sites, the beautifully preserved British colonial buildings located near the waterfront, now called The Esplanade, formerly the center of government and commerce in the 1800s #Penang #BritishHeritage #UNESCOHeritageSite

Now I feel better after having a bungkus of Teh Tarik! 😜 (at Hotel Jen Penang)

My current state of mind--- despite gulping five mugs of coffee already... 😜 (at Hotel Jen Penang)

So, I've finally moved out of the hotel and settled just a few steps away. Not a bad decision I think. 😁 #BahayBahayan #CondoDwellerAgain #Penang (at Batu Feringhi Beach, Penang)

Where have you been all this time, Bros? #MgaTambok #DakoTiyan #Heavyweights #Dabianos (at Shangri-La's Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa)

Kanamo malooy ka unta, nga kanimo nangilaba! Viva Pit Señor, ikaw na bahala kanamo! #Sinulog2017 #VivaPitSeñor #StoNiñodeCebu (Photo by @erwintlim) (at Penang, Malaysia)

My heart is full of prayer and hope as Cebu celebrates Sinulog, the Philippines' grandest festival in honor of Sto. Niño, the child Jesus! Pit Señor kang Jonah, Jon, Jeco ug Josh kini! Pit Señor kang GingGing ug sa tanan nakong mga igsoon kini! #Sinulog2017 #Cebu (Thanks @erwintlim for the photo) (at Penang, Malaysia)

Thought it was listed under local favourites, it sounded local -- 'Crispy Fried Hainanese Chicken' the menu said. And I asked the wait staff hoping they delivered the wrong order. Nope! Oh well... Let's eat! 😜 (at Lone Pine Hotel Penang)

Mornings come slightly late this part of Asia, it's 7:30am and I was disoriented whether it was dawn or dusk when I stepped out on my balcony until I checked the time on my handphone. 😁 Tiguwang na gyud! (at Shangri-La's Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa)
