Hello everyone!
I'm back using Facebook again :) let's catchup on what's happening - Recently I ran a 30 day series in my new Ig covering if Melb is really the world's number one city- for someone like me. Obv one of those days, it had to be about cost of living in Bkk vs Melb. Little did I know, sharing my person experience even in a low follower count account will lead me to share more of my lived experiences across 7 different countries around the world in Australia's BIGGEST real estate website! Here's the link if you are interested - https://www.realestate.com.au/news/how-to-live-overseas-for-a-fraction-of-sydneys-cost/

Just when I was wrapping my thoughts on Kathmandu, where I was born in my book. I see this on news 💔 I feel so disappointed in the government and feel sad for Nepal. This has been a long time coming, and one of the reasons why many leave Nepal. I am so proud of Gen Z and especially for those who are protesting. It is ALWAYS about the people who are standing in the arena. They are the ones who make HISTORY. The ones who watch on the sidelines, the best they can do is support. I read police are entering houses at night and attacking for protesting. Please be safe. Those 19 people didn't deserve to die, and justice will be served 🇳🇵RIP ... Genz don't just scroll, they show up 🫶🏽

#105 CYPRUS 🇨🇾

When I found out there was a lil Turkiye in the Northern Cyprus, I'd to check it out. From Larnaca to Nicosia, then to Turkish was an easy diy day trip.

Why are Turkish people living in the Northern Cyprus? Here is an explanation from an imaginitive 5 yr old

Imagine Cyprus is like a big playground, and for a very long time, both Greek kids and Turkish kids played there.

Then, some grown-ups from Greece and some grown-ups from Turkey had a big disagreement about who should be in charge of the playground. This made the Greek and Turkish kids on the playground argue too.

One day, a long time ago, the grown-ups from Turkey sent their helpers (like teachers or police) to the northern part of the playground to help the Turkish kids there feel safe. These helpers stayed, and more grown-ups and kids from Turkey came to live in that northern part.

So, the reason you hear Turkish in Northern Cyprus is because many Turkish people have lived there since those grown-ups from Turkey came to help the Turkish kids a long, long time ago. It's like if your grandparents moved to a new place and then your family and friends went to live there too – that place would have a lot of people who speak the same language as your family!

More on the stories/ Cyprus highlight and on the blog.

Also Nicosia, Larnaca & Nissi were some of my fav in this country.

104 MALTA 🇲🇹

If you’re wondering how to make the most of Malta without a car, I’ve got you covered. From the ancient streets of Valletta to the idyllic islands of Gozo and Comino, how to experience Malta at its finest on the blog.

Know before you go to Malta
Best time to visit: The optimal time to visit Malta is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) months. These seasons offer mild temperatures and fewer crowds, allowing for a more relaxed experience while exploring the islands. 
Getting around:
* Public transportation: Malta's public bus system is extensive and affordable, connecting major towns and attractions.
* Ferries: Ferries operate between Malta, Gozo, and Comino, providing scenic and efficient travel between the islands. 
* Taxis and ride-sharing: Taxis are readily available, and ride-sharing services like Bolt operate in major cities, offering flexible transportation options.
Language: Malta has two official languages: Maltese and English. English is widely spoken, making communication straightforward for English-speaking travellers. 
Currency: The official currency is the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted in urban areas, but it's advisable to carry some cash for smaller establishments or rural areas. 
Insider Tips:
* Tap water: Tap water in Malta is safe to drink, though it may have a different taste due to mineral content. If you prefer, bottled water is readily available. 
* Must try: Pastizzi yummmm (flaky, pastry-filled delights), Fenek (rabbit stew), and Bragioli (Maltese Beef Olives)
* Electrical outlets: Malta uses the British-style G-type electrical plug (three rectangular pins). Ensure you have the appropriate adapter for your devices. 
* Cultural etiquette: While Malta is generally relaxed, it's respectful to dress modestly when visiting religious sites. Additionally, tipping is customary in restaurants and cafes, typically around 10% if service is not included.
