EDITOR’s<br />
I<br />
realized when working on this <strong>May</strong> issue that I have written<br />
and edited 23 issues of <strong>GOASIAPLUS</strong> magazine since its<br />
debut in June 2016. Sadly, this will be my last issue as editor<br />
and what a bittersweet journey it has been. All those solo travels<br />
and comfy hotel beds will always be a reminder that I once had<br />
the ‘dream job’ as a travel editor, pointed out by many people<br />
that I’ve met during my tenure.<br />
I put as much love in this <strong>May</strong> issue as I did in my first one.<br />
We added some local fair by highlighting the coolest lifestyle<br />
stores in KL. Get optimistic as we interviewed Youtuber Xandria<br />
Ooi, where she shares her travel and happiness tips for a<br />
memorable holiday.<br />
I say Happy Fasting to all Muslims and may you have a<br />
blessed Hari Raya with your loved ones. Lastly, thanks for<br />
reading my stories, it is for you that I strive to create fun and<br />
informative articles.<br />
Till next time,<br />
