I'm Angie, a Malaysian living in Singapore, and I love Southeast Asia so much!
Even if I have only visited 6 of the 11 countries here. Perhaps being a small-town girl transitioned into a big-city woman gave me an opportunity to experience the regional charms from natural forest to concrete jungle, and the easy access to the local food culture put me right at home no matter where I go.
Over the past few years, I had the chance to meet a few long-term travellers from beyond, touring Southeast Asia. Often they would tell me that their favourite part about the region is the less touristy places, where they could put themselves right into the local experiences. I almost get what they mean - when I was researching for a Bali trip, I was so sick of repetitive contents about the same destinations and sights that I decided to forget about it, rented a scooter, and went about with my own exploration and schedule. Best decision ever made.

I’m looking for unique experience in Israel for a family trip in February 2023.
We will be all over from the Golan to Eilat. I’d love ideas of unique places to visit, restaurants (I love a good hole in the wall), etc.
We’re staying at Abraham Hostels (I see you guys are on here - hi!) in Jerusalem, Eilat & Tel Aviv. Still trying to figure out the north leg of our trip.
I’ll be writing a blog post based on an off the beaten path family friendly trip at themintchipmama.com
Can’t wait to hear your ideas and suggestions.
My absolute favorite adventure in Israel was renting bikes in Tiberius and cycling alongside the Sea of Galilee. It's an absolutely beautiful area with fun stops for beaches/views as well as history.
Sounds amazing! Thanks
Depending on your timing, you could spend a few days on an archaeology dig in Timna to help excavate the ancient remnants of King Solomon's Mine. Check out the details at www.ancientodysseys.com/timna We have lots of other paleontology and archaeology digs around the world that are family friendly too.
