About Me

I am married to my loving husband for more than 45 years now. I am a mother to 3 beautiful children, until years ago when I lost my youngest son. Since then my life is forever altered but yet unbroken....

Spring of love in Vienna...

"The greatest part of life is to go to places you’ve never been before, and to live dangerously...” – Noran Bakrie


(Reunited with hubby in Vienna)

From France I travelled alone to Vienna, Austria. There were meetings arranged for me at the Austrian Notes Printing Plant and I had to witness and sign-off some coins disposal at the Austrian Mint. On the 4th and my last day in Vienna, dear hubby flew in from Kuala Lumpur and we had a week holidays.

The Astoria Hotel where we stayed, is situated at the center of Stephansplatz, with rows of shops and famous Viennese cafes. For those keen on shopping there are plenty of flea markets and shopping streets to browse through. At the end of Stephansplatz stood the Gothic Imperial Chapel, houses a wealth of art treasures where the Vienna Boys’ Choir performs during High Mass on Sunday, is also a remnant of the Imperial Palace during the Middle Ages.
