Like many of you, Covid-19 has spoiled all my travel plans in 2020 and 2021. Now, I am planning to travel again.

Here are 5 places on top of my list.

Siem Reap, Cambodia

As a photography lover, Angor Wat is at the top of my list.

The famous Angkor Wat temples can be reached via Siem Reap. Both tourists and photographers enjoy visiting the temples, which are regarded as one of Southeast Asia's most significant archaeological sites.

Other cool photo spots are the nearby floating villages, the neighborhood markets, and the picturesque countryside.

Yangon, Myanmar

I have to admit I am not so comfortable with the idea of traveling to Myanmar.

But Yangon, Myanmar's largest city, is rich in culture and history. The city is home to the historic Shwedagon Pagoda, which is one of the country's most recognizable attractions.

Other famous shooting locations include downtown Yangon's colonial architecture, bustling local marketplaces, and the surrounding Inle Lake.

Hoi An, Vietnam

When I first planned to visit Hanoi, some of my friends asked me, "why would you go to Vietnam?" But they had no clue how stunning is the Halong bay.

I would love to revisit Vietnam, but this time to another city.

Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for its well-preserved historic village. The city is well-known for its vibrant lanterns, traditional wooden buildings, and stunning beaches.

The Japanese Bridge, Hoi An Ancient Town, and the neighboring My Son Sanctuary are also popular photography locations.

Penang, Malaysia

A couple of my friends were living in Penang, and they always invited me to visit there. Unfortunately, Covid-19 messed with all my travel plans.

Penang is an island state in Malaysia. It is well-known for its beautiful beaches, delicious street food, temples, mosques, and rich cultural heritage.

The city is home to the popular George Town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Other popular photography spots in Penang include the Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang Hill and the Fort Cornwallis, to name a few.

Luang Prabang, Laos

I live in Thailand now, and Laos is a neighboring country. Luang Prabang in Laos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is known for its well-preserved traditional architecture and cultural heritage. When I need a vacation away from the bustle of Bangkok city, I might go to Luang Prabang.

The city is famous for its beautiful temples, such as Wat Xieng Thong and Wat Mai, as well as the local markets. Other popular photography locations include the nearby Kuang Si Waterfall, the Phousi Hill and the Pak Ou Caves.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
