While searching for Airbnbs in Chiang Mai, we stumbled upon this charming homestay called Lucklub, nestled within what the description called an artists’ village, just 7 km from the city center.

To the people I met in Egypt, It’s been nearly a month since we returned from Egypt, but I’m still suffering from post-trip blues.

The Great Ocean Road: Experiencing Australia’s Most Scenic Drive
We’ve all grown up seeing the photographs of the Twelve Apostles – magnificent rock stacks that rise majestically from the Southern Ocean on Victoria’s dramatic coastline – and read about it in school textbooks (about its Biblical significance).
