Get Ready for Summer with My Favourite Beach Destinations

Summer vacations are the best! Hanging out at the beach, armed with an cold drink and a good book…

Except, I think I like the idea of that more than what it is in reality.  In Singapore, there are only 2 kinds of weather, scorching hot and rainy. So we’re usually not too keen on the summer part. But the cold drink and good book sounds awesome!

Another thing I like is this new notebook I’ve created to celebrate the summer (or in my case, the idea of it), complete with an iced-cold bottle of lemonade!

In celebration of summer, here are some of  my favourite beach destinations, in reverse chronological order:

1. Paradise Beach, Mykonos (actually, the whole of Mykonos, really).

2. Bali. Cheap and good. This was when we had dinner facing the sea at Jimbaran Bay.
