So, in June 2012, I was crazy enough to make a looooong trip to the US on my own with Miwi a.k.a Baby Jiyann. It was three connections and about 21 hours of travel time, all in all. We had…
Utterly undaunted in Utah!
Prowling in Penang!
Well, it’s a long weekend thanks to Aidiladha and here we are in Georgetown, Penang! Thanks to the good people at E&O, we are comfortably installed in their swanky hotel in Lebuh Farquhar. It’s an all-suite hotel, so it’s very…

Dobbes' new car seat – the Inglesina Mille Miglia!
When Keyaan was born, he seemed so tiny (even though he weighed in at an average 3.2kgs) that it seemed every car-seat was too big for him. I was also daring enough to just carry him in my arms when…

The journey of a lifetime
Marriage came to me in a gradual, organic way. Unlike previous relationships, how Leonard and I came together was unexpected and we grew as a couple quickly but symbiotically. We had our differences of course, not least in the way…
