Trip Moments Recommendations
A simple life outside of the city.
During my visit to the Shree Urgen Choling Buddhist monastery in Pokhara, I was captivated by its serene ambiance, ideal for Buddhist practices, yoga, and meditation. Nestled around Lakeside, the monastery offered a breathtaking view of Phewa Lake, enhancing the spiritual experience.
As I explored the tranquil surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere enveloped me, transporting me to a state of inner calm and reflection. The monastery's architecture, adorned with intricate Buddhist motifs, added to its charm, evoking a sense of reverence and awe. Witnessing monks engaged in their daily rituals further enriched my understanding of Buddhist traditions, leaving an indelible mark on my soul.

A very serene and quiet resort in Canggu
This resort is located away from the crowded tourist areas in Canggu. The resort is quiet except for the occasional birds and animals sounds during the night. The resort is huge with two pools and a yoga room. The package came with complimentary daily yoga and afternoon tea. Room was spacious thought a bit wear and tear but overall experience was nice. Price is very good as well.

Rishikesh -Land of Yoga-
✨Getting There✨
I took a direct flight from Thailand to Dehradun. Then taxi to Rishikesh. It’s easy to travel and no need to worry about taxi. There are taxi services at the airport.
✨Attractions ✨
There are so many places you must visit. I stayed there for one month. Here are some lists I recommend you to visit.
1. White rafting water join with local people
2. One day trip zoo seeing in jungle

All of these lists you can find with local tourist spots. There are so many choices you can make decision.
✨Hotels✨
I stayed at a yoga school -hariom yoga school- There are so many hotels you can book through Trips.com. After my training finished, I walked around the area and walk in to a hotel to stay there for a few days.
I recommend Ayurpak Rishikesh. The mama there she is so kind and friendly.
✨Food & Restaurants✨
Most of them are vegetarian so mostly they serve vegetarian food. But you can find some restaurants meat friendly

1. Café Moktan and Bakerys (I went every day)

The Yoda, oops, YOGA Barn in Ubud is Amazing
#bali #balitravel #yoga #yogaretreat
A visit to Ubud is not complete without visiting this hyped yoga place! Immediately after I walked in, the vibes os different. It’s like walking inside a different dimension. Yogis everywhere. It was serene yet active and lively at the same time.
I took one class and a spa treatment (really recommend Balancing Ayuryoga massage!!) then chill at their cafe and had some vegan wraps.
Wonderful day well spent!

Hagabrekka Wanderland Yoga Retreat 🧘
Hagabrekka Wanderland -
Firstly Marita and Sabin, (the hosts) are incredibly knowledgeable in yoga lifestyle and has created a fantastic place and retreat in a beautiful mountain and forest landscape in Norway.You have the choice to stay in either a hammock in the forest , ir a glamping tent(which are fantastic) . The organic, vegan food was inspirational, as most of the ingredients are collected on the location. I loved the combination of more dynamic yoga in the morning and more slow in the evening. I also loved the focus on the breath during the yoga sessions. Great hikes in the nearby area, to some beautiful waterfalls were we took refreshing swims, and high up on nearby mountains with fantastic view. #yoga #nature But most importantly was the conscious atmosphere created by Marita, Sabin and the volunteers' presence. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Is Canggu the perfect Bali destination?
✈️ 🚕 Getting There - Book your ticket to Bali’s Denpasar Airport then take a taxi to your hotel in Canggu. The taxi should cost approximately 250.000 IDR. If you have internet, you can avoid getting conned by airport taxis and download Grab and Gojek, these are ride hailing services that operate in Bali. You’re guaranteed to get the best price there.
🏝 Attractions - Rice fields, Yoga, Surfing, Bars and Live Music.
Unlike Kuta, Canggu provides a lot of nature. It is much quieter, but still lively. My favorite bar in Canggu is X Bar, they have great bands, I especially liked D Uncle cause they are very friendly and they sound great.
If you’re not a pro surfer, book a surf lesson from one of the surf guides on the beach. See if you’re any good 😃
🏨 Hotels - I recommend choosing small boutique hotels over world known brands here. It is very lovely and much cozier. I stayed in a small pretty place called Sekoleko Guest House and it was really, really nice because of its location overlooking the rice fields.
🍲 Food & Restaurants - There are plenty of decent restaurants near the beach, you can also walk into hotel and pay for a hotel buffet and eat until you’re too full.
🛍 Shopping - Canggu is a great place for shopping, buying surf gear or cute outfits. There are many shops located towards Eco Beach as well you can check out.
Breath fresh air, surf, try yoga and enjoy Canggu 🧘♀️ 😊

Yoga resort in Canggu, Bali
This is Serenity Eco Guesthouse, it is located in Canggu, Bali. I chanced upon the resort when I was looking for a studio to take a yoga class in Bali.
The resort is big on eco sustainability! There is a garden that grows herbs and fruits that are in turn handmade into beauty products sold at the resort. The furniture are all made of wood and bamboo.
There are a few yoga studios nested in the resort and even a meditation centre. A yoga class costs IDR 100,000 ($10). There are passes for multiple class / unlimited classes for students looking to take more classes.
Location: Jl. Nelayan, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara, Kabupaten Badung, Bali 80361, Indonesia

Recharge at Mana Yoga Retreat, Lombok
Mana Eco Resort has everything you'd need for a yoga retreat - relaxing or energising your choice.
Location: Jalan Baturiti, Kuta, Pujut, Kuta, Kec. Pujut, Kabupaten Lombok Tengah, Nusa Tenggara Bar. 83573, Indonesia
There is a yoga studio within the resort with a full schedule from morning to late afternoon. Talk about getting from bunk to studio in 30 seconds! There is a great line up of instructors with different styles of teaching and different types of classes ranging from power, restorative, vinyasa flow, etc.
Make some time for a spa session/ a swim/ a meal all within the resort in between classes! There was hardly any reason for me to leave the resort. At night, the yoga studio converts into a theatre for movie screening daily.

Post-New Year Staycay at Oasia Resort Sentosa
Address - 23 Beach View Palawan Ridge
Facilities - spa, pool
Highlights - hotel activities like aqua zumba, yoga, etc.
Price - SGD411.00 Deluxe 2 Single Beds (no breakfast, 11.11 sale member rate)
Rating - 3.5 out of 5
I decided to try this resort since I also booked another 3D2N stay for my birthday weekend around mid-year (cancellable). I only booked the lowest-tier room and of course, it’s incomparable to the other luxury hotels I stayed in. However, for it’s price, it’s a good deal already.
It took quite some time to check-in. I reminded the person handling my check-in that I wanted a room away from the elevator (I have also put that in as a special request in their booking site)… Lo and behold, after exiting the elevator, the room given to me was right in front of it!!! 🙄 Of course, I had to go back to reception to have it changed… waited for quite some time… only to find out eventually that the room given to me is at a lower floor and near the pool - not near an elevator because it was at the same level as the reception’s - so, no elevator but it was a few steps from the entrance door! 🙄🙄 I was too tired already so I decided to settle with that room.
Room is okay but I can hear the noise from the hall and from the pool (especially the music for aqua zumba). The bathroom is spacious and has a bath tub. Toiletries are ok. Regular coffee and tea provided. For me, it’s ok for staycations where you spend most of the time outside, exploring nearby areas, lounging by their pool or spending time at the spa then you will just head back to your room to relax and sleep afterwards. I decided to still stay here for my birthday because I also booked it during the 11.11 sale. Since I will spend my time mostly outside, at the beach or different restos near the area, the money I saved during the sale can be used for food and drinks! 😂😂 Honestly, I still get value for the price 😊
I have rave reviews for their spa though! It’s on another trip moment. I don’t mind going back over and over again to avail of their spa services 😍
P.S. The in-room breakfast I ordered, for me, is not worth the price (around SGD40+). Refer to the picture I posted. Look for other breakfast options at the Mess Hall which is just behind the resort.

Journey towards spirituality and mindfulness.
Nestled within the serene environs of Phewa Lake, Street No. 20, Pokhara, Nepal, the Pema Decheling Monastery hosts the Pyramid Yoga Meditation & Healing Center. This sanctuary offers a holistic retreat, encompassing sleeping accommodations, yoga classes, meditation sessions, and nourishing food options.
An enchanting highlight is the monthly celebration held under the radiant glow of the full moon, fostering a sense of community and spiritual connection. Immersed in the captivating aura of chanting and surrounded by the warmth of local hospitality, my visit was a profound experience of tranquility and inner harmony. Moreover, the monastery's picturesque setting provides an idyllic backdrop for meditation, enhancing the journey towards self-discovery and mindfulness.

Bahrain Beach Life
Since most of the best beaches are owned by resorts, take advantage of the best free one, Salman City Beach.
It's in a quiet residential area but allows for plenty of privacy. The place is huge, I mean there's almost a football field between the water and homes. There's restaurants on the shore, a dock for jetskis/boats, bike paths, and ice cream vendors.
The best part is this beautiful pyramid right in the middle. It just makes the beach more special compared to every one on the island.

Morning Yoga!
In Tangier looking for some peace and quiet? Villa Harris is the perfect spot for jogging, yoga, or reading. The best part is you can't miss it. Go down the coastline, and you'll spot it. During the weekday, the only people there are the gardeners really.
Bring a yoga mat or book and have fun.
Enjoy! #tripblazers #tangier #yoga #morocco #travel #photography #fallingforfall

Escape the jungle🌴
逃離渲嘩的PNH🌴
Floors 25 through 39 house the Rosewood Phnom Penh Hotel, at the Vattanac Capital. I stayed for 2 nights and rate the moment as below FYI:
1. Gym with 360 degree view
The building almost covers the heart of Phnom Penh, and give you extra energy to workout or doing yoga meditation.
2. Indoor Pool
great to bring friends here as hotel staff are very nice to take care your requests, to make you and your friend feel home.
3. Hotel rooms
The rooms is smart and has its own room system for its music and lights, as well as the TV control. The room service is exceed expectation as they tidy up and keep track your habit to make you feel home.
4. Art Gallery
Also to say there is artpiece next to their check-in station and breakfast area. Whenever you’re bored, you could view and buy your favourite art piece if found suitable.
Recommended to stay here for traveller who want to upgrade their Phnom Penh experience. 很好的逃離渲嘩的PNH🌴
