Silk Air Flight Review: Cebu to Singapore Roundtrip

On By Psyche CastillonIn TravelLeave a comment

I was envious of the many people who blogged about paying just P2,000 for a round trip ticket to Singapore. I tried my best to be able to score tickets of that price range but I was not successful. I just decided to splurge a little bit in air fare, and save in some aspects of the travel. Anyway, it was my first international trip, might as well enjoy it to the best I can afford.

Because my sister-in-law has been in Chiang Mai before, we asked her for food recommendations and khao soi was one of her highly recommended food to eat when in Chiang Mai.

Akha Ama Coffee

I read about Akha Ama a few years ago in a magazine featuring coffee shops selling sustainable coffee. I was already regularly drinking coffee then but I had zero knowledge about coffee growing, the coffee industry, and the people behind the coffee bar counters. But I was already interested in Thailand since I was young so I placed Akha Ama at my imaginary list of “where to go in Thailand” list.
