TUMI Adds New Luggage Designs To The 19 Degree Aluminum Collection Modelled By Football Star Song Heung-Min

For some people, luggage is luggage. As long as it has enough space for the clothes needed for the trip and it's sturdy enough, it's all good. For the discerning traveller, though, what's on the outside is just as important as what it's keeping inside. 

In fact, these discerning travellers might already have a piece or two from the TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum collection. The main feature for models from this collection is its exterior constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, but its striking good looks definitely doesn't hurt. Add to that its functionality, and it is no wonder that the TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum luggage and bags are always favourites for trips near and far.

The frame system opening allows for easy storage of your clothing and other items, while 2 TSA integrated combination locks keep these safe inside, yet easy to open with the push button (and correct code, of course). Meanwhile, the handle is a life-saver with the 3-stage telescoping system that adjusts with the push of a button, and is also retractable - just as with the side carry handle. Finally, the 4 dual-spinning recessed wheels promise smooth pulls and make rushing through airports a breeze (if you needed to rush, that is). 

The New Kids In The TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum Collection

The best-seller Short Trip Packing Case (MYR7,100) alongside the new models - the Briefcase (price N/A), Backpack (MYR8,960) Compact Carry-On (MYR6,250).

For the new additions to the TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum family, Korean footballer Song Heung-Min models the new Backpack, Compact Carry-On and Briefcase as an ambassador for TUMI. Just like the other models in the collection, expect to find the beloved futuristic, cool-toned and edgy look in these new pieces, in Silver and Noir Mat (read: black). 

Meanwhile, for a more dainty look, the new launch also introduced the Minaudiere - a mini handbag version of the TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum bags. The Minaudiere comes with a leather removable shoulder strap as well as a chain removable shoulder strap, so it's perfect for night and day, formal and casual. And, of course, perfect for travelling just as well as a weekend jaunt into the city.

The new TUMI 19 Degree Aluminum Minaudiere (MYR5,570) comes in a few colours including silver and blush.

Kuih Keria Kat KL Yang Boleh Tandingi Kuih Keria Viral Melaka

Review by Atiqah Al-Khaired

"Keria Ku Milik Mu" - Come to me, keria!

Anda suka kuih keria yang viral tu? Kami ada tip bagus punya kat sini. Tak payah beriya cari resepi kuih keria Melaka tu. Tak payah beriya sangat beratur panjang-panjang nak beli kuih keria kat Melaka tu, tup-tup boleh beli dua bungkus je kuih lepas penat tunggu lama gila.

Tau tak ada satu gerai kuih keria yang jauuhhhhhh lagi sedap daripada Kuih Keria Antarabangsa dekat Melaka tu? Perkara ni dah terbukti lepas kami rasa kedua-dua spesimen. Hasil eksperimen memang mengejutkan (dan mengenyangkan). Tak sangka kuih keria di Kuala Lumpur ni jauh lagi sedap daripada yang di Melaka.

Family Fun at Taman Tamadun Islam, Terengganu (a.k.a. the Islamic Civilization Park, Malaysia)

Review by Travels With My Girls

The Badshahi Mosque of Pakistan with Palestine's Dome of the Rock in the back at Taman Tamadun Islam Terengganu, Malaysia located on Pulau Wan Man Island in Kuala Terengganu

Our second time at the Taman Tamadun Islam in Kuala Terengganu, we managed to see all 22 monuments this time and truly enjoyed the tour, riding in the rented buggy driven by the park’s staff. The girls, especially Adra, actually enjoyed learning about old Islamic monuments and each featured country’s culture and history. And since some of these monuments no longer exist in their original form – some destroyed by war in the Middle East both in modern and olden times, visiting these structures here might be the only time you can pose with these architectural wonders.

This New Hotel Looks Haunted… And We’d Love To Stay Here!

Hotel 1898 The Post

The Zannier Hotels group specializes in luxury boutique hotels with a uniqueness at each of their establishments, and their latest addition, in Ghent, Belgium called 1898 The Post – yes, that is the name of the hotel – is named as such because it is housed in a former Post Office that had its building plans finalized in 1898 by the architect Louis Cloquet.

For the third year in a row, we were back at Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur to celebrate the birthday of the daddy of the family.
