I used to live 5.5 years in Singapore and found this is the perfect destination to visit first in Asia. Singapore provides you a lot of different impressions that you else would have to collect on trips to separate countries. As most likely, you are traveling from far to Asia, it’s a good choice to stay for a few days in Singapore, before proceeding to your ultimate destination in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, China, India, Philippines or wherever you want to go for your holidays. Singapore is a unique kind of country that offers you some of the best things from all over Asia for your first days on this amazing continent. That’s why I call Singapore “The Asia for Beginners”.

SWITZERLAND during MAY for traveling: In this episode I tell you EVERYTHING IMPORTANT that you need to know when you travel during this month. May is a very interesting month, it’s not peak season yet. With choosing to travel during May, you have definitely made a great choice. May has several advantages over other months: It’s getting warmer, the days are long, you can do again a lot of activities. May is mid-spring, it’s the transition from Spring towards Summer. You will still be able to get a glimpse of the blossoms, depending on how cold March and April have been. The weather and the look of the landscape during May is very much determined by April. If April is cold, May is going to be rather like a usual April and Spring will be delayed into May. As May is still mid-Spring you may get a last chance to experience a glimpse of Winter up in the Swiss Alps. There will still be snow, in certain places, you even can go to ski. Down in the Swiss plateau, you will see the nice contrast of the green landscape and the snow mountains. Spring vibes down in the cities like Lucerne or Zürich and wintery Swiss Alps, all in one photo! As May is proceeding, it’s getting warmer and you may even experience early Summer vibes. In terms of tourism, May is already considered beginning of Summer season, which allows you to do a lot of things. Although many attractions are going to open up during May, not everything is going to be open as it’s still mid-Spring. In particular up in the Swiss Alps, many attractions may still be closed. Overall in May it’s getting warmer; on certain days, you can already walk around in shorts and slippers. Watch the full episode to know what you can do in May and what you need to expect your travels going to be like. This episode will be part of a series of how it is to travel in Switzerland during each month of the year.

![Top 3 Valleys of Switzerland – BEST of the Swiss Alps [Travel Guide]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/57Dg2XvvlRI/mqdefault.jpg "Top 3 Valleys of Switzerland – BEST of the Swiss Alps [Travel Guide]
Switzerland is full of amazing valleys. Each valley has its unique characteristics such as architecture, culture, landscape and food. In this video, the Top 3 Valleys of Switzerland are being presented in detail. The Val Bavona is a very raw and mystical valley in the Canton of Ticino. The Val Bavona is known for its village of Foroglio and the many unique raw stone houses that were built beneath the rocks that the locals call Splüi. The Val Bavona is full of wonderful villages like Forolgio, Sonlerto, Sabbione, Fontana and San Carlo. The Val Bavona is worth to be explored for about 2 days. Also visit the Foroglio waterfall that is considered a highlight in this Swiss valley. The Simmental is often named as the greenest valley of Switzerand and even of Europe. The Simmental is the home to two of the top 10 waterfalls of Switzerland: The Siebenbrunnen and the Iffigfall. The Siebenbrunnen is a branched waterfall that can be accessed by hiking up from Lenk for about 40 minutes. A highlight of the Simmental is the house trail at where you can see the many beautiful homes that are decorated with plenty of paintings and prayers. Beautiful villages to visit are Boltigen, Erlenbach and Oberwil. At Oberwil there is also a suspension bridge that takes you to the Weissburg Bad. The Schächental is in the Canton of Uri and hosts one of the most beautiful treasures of the Swiss Alps. This would be the Staubifall (Stäuber) that is one of the most photographed subjects of Switzerland on Instagram. Many travelers admire the Schächental as it is raw, green and looks like post cards.

![Engelberg Titlis Adventure Switzerland [Travel Guide]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5xmTEfdj940/mqdefault.jpg "Engelberg Titlis Adventure Switzerland [Travel Guide]
Engelberg is one of the most touristy places in Switzerland. This is because of Mount Titlis that is quite accessible from various parts of Switzerland and thus perfect for a one-day trip. Engelberg lays in the Canton of Obwalden and is only 1 hour from Zurich and 30 minutes from Lucerne. There are 3 gondolas to be taken to access Mount Titlis. The last gondola has a rotating cabin, which is something very unique in the Swiss Alps. Once on the top, there will be a fantastic vista over various snow-covered peaks. You can see the Alps of 5 cantons: Lucerne, Obwalden, Nidwalden, Berne and Uri. There is also a skywalk bridge as one of the major attractions up on the summit, entry is free of charge. The best part is at the Trübsee. Once arrived down there after taking two cabin rides, you can go for snow tubing. This again is free as it is included in your ticket to access mount Titlis. The snowtubing is very fun. Over roughly 150 meters, you will slide down around a high curve at where you can take a small lift to go up again. There are no limits of how many runs you want to go for.

![Bukittinggi - Indonesia UNSEEN [Full Travel Guide] West Sumatra - Best Things to do - Top Places](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/65n-T31vIJM/mqdefault.jpg "Bukittinggi - Indonesia UNSEEN [Full Travel Guide] West Sumatra - Best Things to do - Top Places
West Sumatra (Sumatera Barat) – the Land of the Minangkabau – was THE discovery of the year. I have traveled much, but since my visit to Bangladesh, I have not come accross any place that was so raw! Bukittinggi is so rich in culture and at the same time very underrated. Yet, it is truly wonderful Indonesia! The best thing: there are barely any tourists.
Because Bukittinggi is yet not very touristy, it remains relatively cheap. I have spent only 150 SGD in 4 days (450 MYR or 110 USD). This included the hotels, food, national park and island entrance feed, as well as the daily costs of 550’000 IDR (38 USD) for the driver.
The best things that you can do around Bukittinggi are visiting the Rumah Gadang Minangkabau, Istano Basa Pagaruyung, Sianok Valley (ngarai sianok), Anai Waterfall, Japanese Tunnel, Lake Maninjau, Jam Gadang and the Jambatan Limpapeh. There is surely a lot more to discover, this for another trip! For sure I will travel there again! Thus, this video is my first Travel Guide for this region around Bukittinggi in West Sumatra (Sumatera Barat)
