Aren't those tulips in Holland beautiful?

Hi everyone! Thank you for popping by! My name is Joyce and I come from Singapore. Please write to me should you have any questions regarding places that I've been too. Will be glad to help.

Bonjour et bienvenue à tous! Je m'appelle Joyce et je viens de Singapour. Si vous avez les questions concernant les destinations que j'ai visité,n'hesitez pas à m'envoyer un email. je serai contente de vous aider.:)

J'aime la France!

Besançon,la capitale de Franche-Comte!

Previously I was studying Business Management-more precisely- Retail and Travel Management, before I left for France to study French linguistics,civilisations and culture. I was in Besançon,located in the Franche-Comte(departement du Doubs), a lovely town with lots of greenery for 2 years. I was on a 6 month exhange program in Perugia, Italy-another great place!

I love Travelling!

One of the traditional costumes in Alsace,France

It was during my 2.5 year stay in Europe that I really started travelling (Had to make good use of weekends and holidays!) I really love Europe, and I think that it is one of the most beautiful continents in the world. I love European Architecture and food. I also find all asian cultures interesting. I hope to discover more about the Chinese culture (the descendants of many Singaporeans).

I have never been to the Middle East,Africa,and the Americas. On my wish list are Peru,Mexico,Argentina, Canada,Morocco and other parts of Europe(Scandinavian countries + East europe).

A passion for languages and culinary

My passion for languages is growing continuously. I speak English as my first language,Chinese, Italian and French and am currently trying to learn polish- now that's really a tough language, but I am really amazed with its richness! I have also discovered my interest in culinary and flowers;-) My mum's a cooking/floral decoration/gift wrapping/Vegetable carving instructor as well as a columnist of desserts in the local newspapers and I guess I must have inherited that interest from her.

Favourite Destinations^_*

Carcassone (Southern France),Carcassone, ça sonne!

I have not been to so many places yet, but till date my favourite destinations are in Europe:-) They include: Amsterdam, Carcassone in southern France, Perugia, Assisi and Monteriggiorni in Italy, Prague, as well as Ustron and Cieszyn in Southern Poland (+ half of that Cieszyn in the Czech Republic!!)

Poland,My second home:)

My Polish Friend,Joanna and myself at Lazienki

Poland can be considered as a second home for me-my husband is Polish. I go there quite often. I think it's a country with great landscapes-beautiful UNESCO listed sites, hospitable people, with great food!! Yumm,Polish Kielbasa (Polish Sausage), Bigos(meat & vegetable stew) and Zurek, a sour rye soup, are my favourite food!

Joanna: Tu vas surement pas etre surprise quand tu vois ça, n'est-ce pas? :) Tu me manques et ton appart me manque également!;-p
