Tulamben Shore Dives 3 days after I came back from Phuket, I headed to Bali to dive! This time not with my usual Inez, but with trigger-fish magnet, Darren! We headed to Tulamben for our planned dives and stayed at Ocean Sun Resort. It was a dive package he secured with Aquanox Scuba from Singapore. We clocked 6 dives at sites including Liberty Wreck, Coral Garden, Seraya Secrets, Drop Off and one more which I don't remember the name. It was sort of a secret site the DMs found. My first official dive with GoPro I took too many photos which mostly I don't remember which was taken at which site, brilliant. You're still in for a treat though, here you go!

This is my favorite photo of him! Sigh, if only he didn't photobomb all my photos, that would have been great. Not fair that he now has a new DP and yet I'm stuck with him creeping in every solo shot of mine..
That aside, here are some of my
But this has got to be my favourite-favourite, taken by our DM.
I came back wanting to be a fish and I can't wait for next February whereby I'll be back in Bali for two whole weeks worth of diving! This time we are taking our AOWD with Gangga Bali Divers and extending the trip to Nusa Lembongan for more dives. Wheeee! :D
Ending this post with this photo as a thank you to my buddy who took really good care of me underwater. Thanks for laughing at and never taking eyes off this tunnel-visioned girl. This photo because I was laughing out loud when Jan, my Bali instructor, asked sarcastically if he actually dove with no regulator and mask, haha! Oh well, that shows how vain he is when the cam is on him 😂
And oh, here's a compilation for #TravelByAnna, 2015! Thank you for following me through my journey via my platforms, I've gotten a fair bit of enquiries and encouraging comments through this year's travel and I'm thankful for everyone I met on this wanderlust journey, I cannot count my blessings enough. Here's to a splendid 2016, xx

#TengFamTravels 2015 How time flies! It has been 4 years since #TengFamTravels! For recollection sake, here's Bali for 2014. This year, we chose Phuket and I'm glad we did. I had the best time with my fam fam. We stayed at Rawai Beach, Baanaraya Pool Villa. For $500 a night, we've got ourselves a whopping villa with 4 bedrooms, each designed with different splash of colors. That aside, hands down to the best customer service ever. We were all added into a group chat where the owner and her team who took care of all our needs at our fingertips.
Nai Harn beach is beautiful. We spent the whole afternoon building sandcastles, burying my Uncle Kenny twice and built him some solid breast and penis! Hahaha, but let's leave the penis pictures to ourselves as I'd like to keep my travel blog child-friendly.
My aunt and I were determined to build enough sandcastles to surround the beach but the scorching sun showed no mercy so we gave up our Guinness World Record dream that afternoon.
The prettiest and cutest blue-eyed baby goes to..
During one of the days at Rawai, we went for a boat tour! It included activities such as introductory diving, snorkeling, slides (from the boat), meals and tanning beds. This certified all-diver went for an introductory dive with Uncle Kenny and check out this happy face!
A moment to mention my homie, Vibe from Bon Voyage Galleria for this lovely maxi.
We then headed to Club Med for the last 4 days and I've only got a few words to summarize my virgin experience with Club Med by saying I LOVE CLUB MED! Everything is included - meals, adventures, activities and most importantly, free flow beer. Yes, you read that right.
Let's just say my goldfish memory has forgotten what I did in details, but in short I tried Trapeze, went for a snorkeling day tour, attended step aerobics and core exercise class and ended the trip with two days worth of gym!
I don't know if there's a better way for vacation than to spend it with my loved ones and of course not forgetting all the unlimited beer. It always bring us closer and especially this trip, I fell in love with these two little princesses more..
For sure they annoy the shit outta me, at times, but I've never had so much laughter and fun with them. We stayed up late talking about relationships and life, yes with a 10 and 13 year old, laughing so loudly that the boys next door were kicking our connecting door lol! I'm definitely looking forward to more family trips, especially with these two around taking up the king sized bed while I try to squeeze in somewhere between them! ❤
More photos can be found here. Meanwhile, another year is going to fly pass and before we know it, I'll be looking forward to the next #TengFamTravels.
