What is the best trait a good travel
companion should have?
A sense of adventure and the ability to
follow GPS maps on TripAdvisor. Oh
and someone who is not calculative and
picky on food and other stuff.
What is your rule when travelling
with your significant other?
Know what you like and what you do
not like and ensure you don’t over
compromise on what you prefer to do.
My rule when travelling is you don’t
have to do everything with each other.
Example I wanted to go to a spa and he
wanted to go to a hipster barber shop
so we spend a whole day at different
areas of the island. We are not 10 year
olds so it’s ok out of 10 days you take 1
day to just do your thing.
Would you rather travel to a
romantic destination or do
romantic activities at any
destination?
Do romantic activities at any
destination, I believe that you don’t
need a romantic place to bring out the
romantic in you. Sometimes simple
gestures at the most unexpected place
or situation can turn a dull moment into
something quite magical.
What is the best present to give
Joanne Kam for Valentine’s Day?
24 hours in a heavenly bed with
small sincere presents every hour
throughout the day. It doesn’t have to
be expensive or extravagant and can
start as simple as my favourite dessert
to my favourite hawker food. The best
present to give Joanne Kam would be
your attentiveness. However if I do find
jewellery hidden in my chendol dessert,
I am not going to complain.
Where is the last place you went
that you would highly recommend
to your friends?
Potato Head Beach Club in Bali
especially during sunset. A sure winner
for any visiting friends.
How do you keep yourself fresh
and beautiful during your travels?
Any beauty tips?
A good set of SPF makeup, nothing
too cakey and a base to keep the skin
moisturised and Instagram-ready. Also
do bring a good deodorant… travelling
around sightseeing can take a toll on
your body odour.
Have you any travel plans for
2017?
Yes, I am aiming for countries like apan,
New York, Las egas and L.A for this
year’s itinerary.
What is one thing you cannot leave
behind when you travel abroad?
My special shorts that keep my tummy
looking trim to keep all that food baby
strapped down.
You have a radio show with AFO
Radio called Seriously Kam, how
has the show been?
It’s going pretty amazing and I can get
away with more freedom in content
cause its online radio. I can get a little
bit more risqué.
Do you have anything exciting
coming up for the show in 2017?
Yes we will be teaming up with LOL
Comedy Festival and also loads of
travelling comics coming into Malaysia
so we can prepare to get down with the
funny business.
