🇩🇪 I had a currywurst at Checkpoint Charlie four years ago and took a picture for @girleatworld at this very same spot, from the same currywurst vendor across the street. I said back then that it was "not the prettiest of the series of food pictures i've taken, but possibly the heaviest in history thus far". That much still holds true four years later. It's great to be back in Berlin, with its new(ish) slogan "poor but sexy" - the city is not the prettiest or the cleanest of European cities and it is 60 billion euros in debt, but it's definitely one of the richest in history. Currywurst is a snack that can be found all over Germany. It is a war food originated from the time of war in 1949, where it was made, out of the resourcefulness of Herta Heuwer, in Berlin from ingredients that can be obtained at that time - a german pork sausage cut up and mixed with sauce made from ketchup and curry powder, obtained from British soldiers. I had at least one everyday :D Hello Singapore! 🇸🇬 Do you know that ALL photos on this instagram were taken and edited straight on an iPhone? . This Saturday at 1pm, I will be conducting a Photo Lab at the new Apple Store in Orchard Road, Singapore for #todayatapple. I'll be sharing with you how to take and edit photos like these on the iPhone! . Additional spots have been opened up, so click on the link in my profile to RSVP before it gets booked up again. . PS: I am shy and very awkward in person but i'm looking forward to meet you! 🙈 I keep missing the actual date... but this month marks @girleatworld's 3rd anniversary - on 11 May to be exact 😊 I was in Boracay at that time and totally forgot about it. . I am reposting the first ever #girleatworld photo as I usually do to celebrate. A gelato taken in Rothenburg ob de Tauber, a small bavarian village in Germany during my solo backpacking trip to Europe. It took four train transfers, right after a long 12-hour flight from Singapore to Frankfurt and me questioning my life choices. But once I got to the village, all doubts disappeared - it was totally worth it. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. That was the trip that kickstarted the collection of food picture I now call #girleatworld! . So much have changed in the past three years, but my love for food and travel remains the same. I still have plenty of travel plans in the making. I'm soooo happy to be back in europe again this summer. I'll be going back to Berlin and Prague, as well as visiting new cities - Krakow, Lviv and Kyiv! 🇩🇪🇨🇿🇵🇱🇺🇦 You better believe i'll be eating a ton and taking pictures so stay tuned :D I'll be back with more stories. 🇦🇺 My 9-day road trip at @queensland blog post is up at @cheapticketssg blog! click on the link above to read it 🔝. It was such a fun road trip. I'll be writing more pieces for my blog as well, so stay tuned :) . This one is an oyster from Coffin Bay, South Australia at Mooloolaba fish market in Sunshine Coast, shucked fresh daily. Yes I had a lot of oysters during the trip - they were so affordable and fresh that I just can't say no. They go for AU$22 a dozen which is cheaper than happy hour prices in Singapore 😋 Definitely a must whenever you are in Aussie! . After this, we took a scenic drive up David Low way along the beach to Noosa. It was amazing and every stop point was postcard-worthy. . #thisisqueensland #restaurantaustralia #australia #visitsunshinecoast Reasons why #itsmorefuninthephilippines 🇵🇭: Mango shake by the beach is totally a daily thing here! After swimming in the crystal clear water of course. Philippines mangoes are super sweet so I always make sure to get a mango shake whenever I can. Today is our friend Phil and Patricia's big day! 👰🏻🤵🏻💍We are suuuuuper excited for them. It will be my first ever attending a beach wedding - I can't wait! Congrats Philtricia! #PhilPatriciaSummerHitch #ShotOniPhone 🇵🇭 It's more fun in the Philippines! This is Halo-halo, a filipino shaved ice dessert consisting of purple yam, corn, red beans, jelly, jackfruit and my personal favorite - corn flakes cereal! It's drenched in evaporated milk upon serving. Some people might think it's weird to put red beans and corn on cold dessert, but I'm used to it because we do this in Indonesia too 😛 I am in Boracay for the next week with my favorite geckoes @tradegecko for our friend Phil and Patricia's wedding! #PhilPatriciaSummerHitch #ShotOniPhone #itsmorefuninthephilippines 🍓🍏🍌🥝🇦🇺 Acai Bowl in Noosa, a small yet fashionable beach town in Sunshine Coast of Queensland, Australia. Everyone here is beautiful and seems to be eating the latest, trendiest instagrammable superfood - like this Acai Bowl - especially on Hasting Street just a few meters away from the beach. 💡Did you know? Acai Bowl originally came from Brazil, where Acai berries grew in the Amazon and eaten as staple food. The frozen acai pulp itself was popularized by Brazillian Jiu-jitsu founder Gracie, who made acai bowl part of the diet to maximize performance of the fighters. It was then adopted by surfers in Hawaii and Southern California as a quick yet healthy and tasty snack after a surfing session. Now, as most of you would know, Acai bowl has become popular all over the world, thanks to its delicious taste, health benefits and instagram-worthy presentation. Seems that Acai bowl has found a home in surfer-packed Australian beaches. All over Queensland you will find Acai Bowl sold alongside of coffee and smashed avos! I'm a huge fan of Acai bowl myself. If you want to know more about Acai Berry, I highly suggest reading a 2011 New Yorker piece "Strage Fruit: The Rise and fall of Acai Berry" by John Colapinto. In Noosa, especially enjoyed walking on the beach and heading out to the nature, such as Fraser Island (a day trip there is a must) and the Noosa National Park, which has a variety of nature trails. #thisisqueensland #restaurantaustralia #australia #visitsunshinecoast Happy Friday guys! 🍔🍟🇦🇺 I'm in Australia this week with @Queensland and @cheapticketssg. Follow @cheapticketssg for daily updates of my travel. . This is Betty's Classic burger at Surfer's Paradise in Gold Coast. Betty's Burger is a popular burger shack originated from right here in @queensland. Aside of the freshly made burgers, they are also known for their vanilla thickshake which is a killer! . Surfer's Paradise is a part of Gold Coast known for the wavy beaches, shopping and high rise buildings. The one right behind me is called Q1 building, where you can go up to the 77th floor for an observation deck and 360 view of Gold Coast. If you don't fear heights, you can also do the SkyPoint climb which takes you up to Australia's highest building at 270m high. I did this and it was quite exhilarating! . #thisisqueensland #gc2018 #australia #seeaustralia #restaurantaustralia #goldcoast 🇦🇺 I'm in Australia this week with @Queensland and @cheapticketssg! Follow @cheapticketssg for daily updates of my travel. . From Brisbane we drove up an hour north to Sunshine Coast, to a small town called Maleny. It was such a beautiful scenic drive, with shades of blue and green everywhere! It's difficult not to take pictures. We stopped by @malenymountainwine, where I tried their signature Maleny Rose made from locally grown Chambourcin grapes and bottled straight from the tank immediately after fermentation. It has this very refreshing pink shade as you can see in the picture! . #visitsunshinecoast #australia #thisisqueensland
