Destination: Langkawi (Part 1)

It's the year-end school holidays in Malaysia right now, and the hubby and I are planning our vacation. We haven't decided on where to go yet, but I'm thinking it would be nice if we could go to Langkawi as I've never been there ever in my 32 years of living.

So what's fun and exciting in Langkawi? Of course, there's the beach, but I would like to visit other places as well.

Travel Tip: Fly In Style Like Kaya Scodelario

Luxury brand Salvatore Ferragamo appointed British actress Kaya Scodelario as one of their newest faces and it seems her main job is acting in Walking Stories, an eight-part online romantic comedy released by Ferragamo on their website, Ferragamo.com. Shooting the series took Scodelario from London to Florence to Los Angeles to Shanghai in just two weeks, so of course she has a routine to look her best when coming off flights.
