For the ultimate Singapore experience with a glamorous twist, use the historic and opulent Raffles Hotel as your base. Retire to the intimacy of The Writers Bar for pre-dinner drinks and put dinner reservations in the hands of your personal butler. With Natureland Reflexology and Massage a 1-minute walk away, spend your mornings shopping and exploring and your afternoons reviving your tired feet in the cool comfort of Natureland. If antique shopping is on your agenda, venturing to one of Singapore’s junk stores can be thrilling. One of the best is Tong Mern Sern on Craig Road; it houses three floors of antiques which will please even the most discerning collector. If you love handmade ceramics, Mud Rock Ceramics is where high end restaurateurs source their plates and where those in the know shop for one-of-a-kind hand moulded pieces with beautiful glazes. Ceramic Loft also has a unique range of handmade and bespoke bowls, plates, vessels, decor and art pieces and Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle is known for their huge range of plates, tableware, baking dishes and outdoor pots in the Peranakan style. If shopping and exploring leaves you in need of a cool down, head to Rempapa chef Damian D'Silvas favourite bar, No.5 Emerald Hill which he says is the only bar that still retains the nostalgia of Eighties Singapore. In his words, "It may not have the most creative cocktails, but the moment you walk in, you feel comforted and relaxed, and the beer is cold." For the ultimate cool down, return to the hotel and take an invigorating dip in the rooftop pool. Lose yourself in a holiday read or indulge in a light meal with a cocktail or an icy beer as you watch the sky momentarily cloud over for the inevitable tropical rain shower. Dining out is a way of life in Singapore and it is truly a foodlover's paradise. You can indulge in a Michelin starred affair at Cloudstreet one day and enjoy the buzzing energy and authentic flavours of chilli crab, chicken rice and satay at the Lau Pa Sat or Maxwell hawker centre the next. Pair the cuisine, the climate and the ease of getting around with the culture and history of this tiny flavour bomb of a destination and you'll enjoy a holiday that satisfies all your senses.

Tbilisi: A City That Feels Like a Secret Waiting to Be Discovered Welcome to my carefully curated guide to Tbilisi, where industrial-chic hotels, hip coworking spaces, street-side cafes, and hidden art spaces come together to create a city brimming with character. This is my current hometown, a place where every corner invites discovery—whether it’s a hole-in-the-wall marionette theater or an off-the-grid courtyard café only locals seem to know about. Tbilisi is where old-world charm meets a raw, urban edge—cobblestone streets and ancient baths coexist effortlessly with sleek galleries and modern design hotels.

The guide includes a curated map to help you navigate the city with ease, whether you’re here for a quick getaway or a longer stay. This isn’t a checklist—it’s an invitation to explore the hidden charm, creative pulse, and untold stories of a city designed for discovery.
