On Monday of this week Couper met me at the door when I got home and tearfully informed me that his class was going on a fieldtrip, but he didn’t want to go. He showed me the permission form from the teacher which explained that to celebrate Diwali the kids would be going to Indian food for lunch and then, if they wanted, getting henna paintings on their hands. Since his lovely teacher Ms Lucy […] View full post » By Narla Phay – Cambodia country director I was very excited to hear Andrea was giving me the opportunity to travel to Singapore. It would be my first time to this country. I heard Singapore is very clean and a beautiful country, so it’s my turn to have an adventure. Exactly that I been expect to see and more. I can tell Singapore is a beautiful country and the people living in the modern life.

Tini World So now come rain or shine I hear the chants of “Tini World mummy, pleasssssse!!! They still have all the old favourite acivities that were here before (large climbing wall for adults and children, indoor fishing, arts & crafts, cinema, library, kids computers and cafe…), but with a sparkling […] View full post » Urgent Bangkok Update: October 26, 2011 From Jeab, Thailand Country Director, based in Bangkok Yesterday I was walking around Grand Palace and it was accessible, but they just got more water when it’s high tide. In the evening today the PM has announced that Bangkok will be unsafe in about 3-4 days and they confirmed that won’t be higher than 70 cms maximum but I would advise that we move all guests out of the […] View full post » By: Michelle Nguyen – Vietnam director A few weeks ago some guests told me about this restaurant and how much they enjoyed their experience. This is my opinion following my experience this weekend. Useful to know before you go: Mr. Bien the co-owner and founder of ‘Xu’ offers two different experiences to his customers. · On the first floor there is the Xu restaurant lounge, opened in January 2006. · On the ground floor there […] View full post » By: Kathryn Rose Because of the Pchum Ben holiday in Cambodia, I was able to take a few days off and explore some more of this great country that I live in. So Nicola (JWOC Director) and I decided to head off to Battambang for 2 nights. People kept telling us how great of a town it was, and that the journey there is beautiful. We booked the boat to take us there, but ironically, […] View full post » Hotel Name: Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi City: Chiang Mai Star rating:5 JW Rating: Everything off in the Colonial Suites, but not in the villas! (Shoes on, socks on, socks off, everything off) This hotel is truly an amazing property. On a 60-acre plot 15 minutes outside Chiang Mai the Mandarin Oriental really offers it’s own Thai experience without you ever having to leave the resort. While I understand the sentiment of this, I’m not sure […] View full post » By: Nicole Long – Laos country director Occasionally I will receive a completed feedback form from a guest who has just finished their tour experience here in Luang Prabang with a note saying they wish they knew what to do on their free day. If the guest has chosen to have a free day while they are traveling in Laos or elsewhere in SE Asia they might feel a little lost when they are now […] View full post » Hotel Name: Yaang Come Village City: Chiang Mai Star rating: 3 JW Rating: Socks Off (Shoes on, socks on, socks off, everything off) Yaang Come Village is a hotel we’ve been recommending for a long time. It’s located close to the walking market, but feels spacious and inviting despite it’s downtown location. The rooms are large and with painted murals of Lanna life on the walls you definitely know where you are and feel the […] View full post » |
