Planning My Birthday Trip Again

 my 2015/2016 birthday memories in Bali

I know it's way too early to be counting down to my birthday but this is the best part of life isn't it? To celebrate your birthday and what more overseas. I imagine myself in a nice beach area, relaxing and doing nothing - nada - nothing. The year end is always my favourite - Christmas then New Year's Even then my birthday (yes I am a New Year baby! I shall gloat about this because it's the best gift my mum gave to me). 

New Year's Eve Countdown in Ubud, Bali with Baby G

Last year, I celebrated my birthday in Bali with my boyfriend (he paid for everything hehe). It was a 10D9N trip in Seminyak, Sanur and Ubud. We flew by AirAsia on Christmas Day and came back after New Year's. I really enjoyed it but the travelling in between hotels was tiring. I wish I stayed in Seminyak longer because the beach and villa I stayed in was super beautiful! Sanur was a Balinese Cottage stay with the beach just right behind. New Year's Eve countdown was in Ubud amongst the locals and tourists alike. 

I wonder this year, where should I go again! I won't want to go in December because it's double to triple the price of normal. I shall go on 1st January instead or 3rd January so it passed the "high peak season". Everyone's going back to work but I'll be whisked off on a romantic beach getaway again with my boyfriend.

Should I go to Phuket for the first time?

or relive Krabi again, painting a new memory over an old one

or get lost in paradise before it's gone?

So this year I've narrowed my search to Phuket, Krabi or Mauritius.  I'll be checking on the flights, hotel stays, sights and attractions by reading reviews. I'll compare my hotel search in Phuket with HotelsCombined.com a site I recently discovered to help me get down to the best deals from all the top travel sites.

P.S: My weakness is that I really love luxury resorts, with an amazing bathroom! Ones with jacuzzi or plunging pool would hit the spot. This reminds me of Bali again because Bali has really beautiful villas at great prices. 

Oh gosh, I am going to be one year older like Bridget Jones.
