Jing’s Residence: "Maybe the nicest hotel I have ever been to"

"This is a wonderful hotel in a magically preserved town in China, only 3 hours forty minutes from Beijing by bullet train. A UNESCO site. The hotel is superb. You will be treated as a friend,served wonderful food, welcomed in every way. With only 16 glorious rooms (and a spa), this will be the highlight of any trip. I have been to China a number of times, and have always enjoyed the friendly nature of the people, but this hotel took that to a new level. I think it is the best, and unquestionably the nicest, hotel I have ever stayed in. Ms. Yang Jing makes you feel as though she personally invited you. The hotel itself is beautiful, but the warmth of its staff is amazing. Stay a few days and just enjoy"

Maisons Wat Kor: "A blissful get-away – highly recommend"

"A hidden local architecture hotel with a beautiful pound surrounded by the green garden setting has created a wonderful atmosphere in the evening. We had a great experience from the moment we arrived by a great hosted and really make us feel at home. It was an unforgettable memory with family and we absolutely can't wait to return ❤️!"

Noel Rodrigo’s Leopard Safaris: "Wild at Heart"

"As we pulled up to the meeting point , we were met with a striking man in safari attire, Danu. Danu (our host) is a much younger Sri Lankan version of Sir David Attenborough-with a dash of Indiana Jones. His knowledge for wildlife is amazing and he has an eagle eye for spotting animals as did our amazing driver who is so knowledgable and we loved hearing about his tiger encounters in India. Both these guys are passionate conservationists but make it really interesting and are very sensitive to the needs of wildlife and safari newbies. My husband and I became so comfortable around then we found ourselves asking ridiculous questions like ""Does that elephant get lonely?"" Danu is a true professional for keeping a straight face when he answered ""Um, I haven't gotten around to asking him""... We are still laughing about but seriously these guys are like your personal wildlife Wikipedia. We booked the normal tents and were absolutely blown away by the luxury. We have been staying in 5 Star hotels throughout Sri Lanka but this was the cleanest room/tent we have ever seen with the crispest sheets and plugs for my phone. I will miss my outdoor shower, there is no better feeling than having an outdoor shower after a big day in the park. I have to talk about the food. It was next level! This was by far the best food I have had in Sri Lanka and what made it SO special was Danu showing us how to eat it like a local. I loved learning about the cuisine and Sri Lankan culture under the stars. The guys who were serving us in the bar and restaurant- a lantern lit space under the stars treated me like a jungle queen! I miss them already and plan to kidnap them the next time I come back. So I would highly recommend these guys to anyone who has a deep respect for wildlife, a love for a bit of luxury in the jungle and those who are wild at heart. Yala is calling for you.

Jing’s Residence: "Zen & Classicism"

We planned 2 nights and stayed a week, absolutely smitten by the abundant charm, the historical atmosphere, the perfection in every detail and the friendly helpful staff. Expensive? Yes but worth every yuan.

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Blue Mansion – Penang History"

"The 'Blue Mansion' as it is called as it's Blue is a piece of Penang history that you should visit whilst in Penang. A guided tour of the mansion tells the story of Cheong Fat Tze who originally built the mansion and the great detail and care in the architectural process. Tours are in English 3x day and go for about 1hr, but you should arrive at least 10-15min before the tour times as the gate closes until next tour. Toilets are located within the mansion grounds near the exit. Stayed January 2017, traveled solo"
