Monkey at Colmar

Spotted this cheeky monkey at Colmar, a much needed getaway.

Kingfisher, ICL surgery and Independence Day Updates

Happy Independence Day, Malaysia! Gracing this blog with a Kingfisher photo that I took with my Fujifilm XT-30 camera.

I took this shot while I was still recovering from ICL – my first photo since the op. My vision is unfortunately still blurry and not as sharp as it was before the surgery. It has been over a month, hopefully it wouldn’t continue for too long without full recovery.

This year has been full of bad news, so I would like to share a photo of this cute magnificent bird. I also decided to share this photo because the red, white and blue colours reminded me of Malaysia’s flag.

For those wondering what ICL is, it is a surgery similar to LASIK, but with newer tech and is non-invasive. It is called Implantable Contact Lens. The operation is generally safe but recovery rate depends on the individual. I did both eyes at the same time.

That’s it for now, enjoy your day 🙂

Shanghai Walkway

So, it’s been around 20 years since I last went to Shanghai. I like how some areas are very modern yet have a slightly rustic feel and greenery in other areas.

Chairman Mao Museum

Recently went to China. Stumbled upon a museum with an illustration of Chairman Mao among others.
