Tell us a little fun fact about you

Other than running my own brand Love Brown, I have a 9-5 job that keeps me busy each day. I am also a freelance Makeup Artist and a free-diving student planning to have my certification soon. People would ask me how I seem to be always out and about but I just try to balance both my day job and my business so I could have time off when that long weekend or holiday getaway takes place.

What do you do when you're not traveling?

I focus on my business to keep myself productive. I wake up at 6 AM to go to the gym and head straight to my day job afterwards. I use my time at night for stocks production and deliveries. On weekends, I spend time with my family.

What do you love most about traveling? 

I want to make the most out of my time when I’m still young. When I travel, I don’t go to the common places where people would usually go. I would do my research and pick places that are unique, artistic, and not a lot of people would know. This way, I get to indulge in the best meals and sceneries without having to worry about congestion.

Where in the world have you felt happiest?

For me, it’s Bali - a week isn’t enough because there’s just so much to do, so many spots to go to, and new activities to try! In fact, for my 30th birthday, I am actually going back and have planned to stay at this beautiful boatel called Le Pirate Explorer.

A place that lived up to the hype

Free-diving in Gili Islands where you’ll see enormous statues underwater is really a MUST when visiting Indonesia! The pink beach in the province of Labuan Bajo, Indonesia as well as swimming with manta rays also shouldn’t be missed.

What do you like most about Wink?  

The well-trained staff are so calm and patient. They really know how to take care of their clients and are very approachable, responsive to my queries.

How does Wink help with your travels?

I tried Wink’s Laser Facial and Bikini Laser Hair Removal and I really loved it! It helped me worry less with my travels! I especially love the Wink’s Laser Facial, I don’t need loads of makeup and it saves me from buying expensive skin care. Actually I’m planning to book my next appointment for this! ;)
