Time Flies When You’re Having Fun

Hello hello dear readers!

Just a quick note to say I’m back from my 9-day holiday in Japan, and it was fabulous! I haven’t been back for 6 years and it was so good (yet feels quite strange) to visit the land of the rising sun once again.

From Tokyo to Kyoto and back to Tokyo again, it’s been a full week of sightseeing, plenty of walking, eating and shopping. It was a good break from the blog given that I was pretty burnt out for weeks. Now that I’m back, I’m all refreshed and ready to serve you with what I hope is going to be pretty cool content. 🙂

Do bear with me as I unpack, run errands and get all the important stuff sorted out first before I blog about the trip. Once that’s done, there’ll be heaps of pictures to share with you (I took about 1500 photos; there must be some good ones in there ;)).

Till then, here are some holiday shots for now.

Be back real soon with my travel beauty essentials, highlights of the trip and *ahem* my shopping haul 😛
