I wanted to be the driver of a big red bus. I still have dreams about it! If you got stuck in the elevator and were forced to listen to only one song, which would it be? ‘Hotel California’ by Eagles or ‘Careless Whisper’ by George Michael. Pick one for me! What is the best advice anyone has ever given you? This too shall pass.

travel diaries
Where did you choose to go and why? I went to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. It was on my list of cities to see and a friend was turning 40 so we decided to visit KL for a weekend getaway and it was well worth it. Who did you travel with? I went with a group of friends.
planes, trains & automobiles
Tell us about sites no one should miss out on? Batu Caves are magical then one must visit the Petronas Twin Towers which are the highest twin towers in the world. Genting islands is also a must visit! Moreover, KLCC tower has a revolving restaurant on the top which shouldn’t be missed. The list goes on and on but the Islamic museum and temples are also worth seeing!
Travelling is great fun. You get to explore a new place, meet new people and get wiser! We want to know more and will share with you exciting travel stories from a few special people in our section, planes, trains & automobiles! Suggest places for a perfect night out? Marinis on 57th has my vote as the service and food both were top notch there. One must also try Nobu that has opened next to it in the Twin Towers. Isabel is a great Thai and Malaysian fusion cuisine. Moreover, Wizards at Tribeca had the best brunch in KL,Preggo at Westin had yummy brick oven pizzas and The Iron Fairies at TREC had burgers to die for.

What can you do to relax and unwind? Banyan tree spas were 5 minutes walk from where I was staying so that’s where i went for relaxation. KL has some amazing malls like Gardens mall, Pavilion mall and Suria mall for retail therapy. The KLCC park is ideal for an evening walk.

Tips? Take your summer wardrobe to Malaysia as its humid and rains a lot there. If you have taken dollars, get them changed from the city not the airport. Furthermore, download grab on your phone for better and cheaper alternate to city taxis.

Our fab astrologer Zahid Haider, styles up your stars. Find out what’s in store for you this week!
For your in-depth weekly forecast call 0322-757-5219 E-mail: happyhaider65@gmail.com
ARIES (MAR. 21- APRIL 20) Take a little sabbatical, Aries! You deserve it. This week, prioritize rest, self-care, and some alone time above all else. On Friday, Venus enters your sign of friendship, so you’re back as the life of the party on the weekend. You may even see a former friend more romantically—why not?!
SCORPIO (OCT. 24 - NOV. 22) Ace card up, Scorpio! It’s time to share your feelings with someone. This week motivates you to lean into vulnerability and gain the reward of your bravery. On Friday, Venus beautifies your home sector, so tidy up, call someone close to you, and ensure that your exterior living space reflects your inner beauty.
TAURUS (APR. 21- MAY 21) Hey, social butterfly! This week you’re out and about—flying all over town, laughing with friends, and cherishing the bonds you’ve made together. Connections help your work life, too, when Venus beautifies your career sector on Friday. Harmonize and strengthen the relationships you’ve made there, which will foster professional success.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 23 -DEC. 21) You’re not your typical restless self, Sag—this week, you’re more passionate about staying in and tending to the places and people you call home. Venus enters your intelligence and communication sector on Friday, inspiring you to be vocal about love—cute, intelligent types will be totally irresistible.
GEMINI (MAY 22-JUNE 21) Overtime, Gemini! You’re staying late at work this week and contributing your best ideas and skills. Never forget what a creative problem-solver you are. Wanderlust strikes on Friday when Venus enters your international and educational sector. It’s time to take off to the country or campus you’ve been dreaming about. Enjoy the adventures! CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22) Expansion, thy name is Cancer! You’re crawling out of your comfort zones this week and showing the world your creativity and bravery. If it’s scary and painful, that means you’re doing a good job. Lean into intimate connections that have depth and staying power. LEO (JULY 23-AUG 22) Wear your crown proudly at work, Leo! This week showcases your leadership and moral authority on the job, so speak your truth directly yet compassionately when the opportunity arises. Venus enters your most romantic sector on Friday, when you’ll be given the chance to deepen or transition your current loves. VIRGO (AUG. 23 -SEPT. 23) Romance is a skill, Virgo—this week, feel inspired to refine your technique! Venus enters your health and organization sector on Friday, inspiring you to step it up where you’re already outstanding. Tidy up, meal prep, and organize that agenda to reap the gift of inner joy. LIBRA (SEPT. 24 -OCT. 23) This week inspires you to really focus on one thing. Follow your heart to identify an area of personal growth that needs your attention. Venus enters your creativity and confidence sector on Friday, giving you more magnetism, popularity, and capability to showcase your artistic flair.
CAPRICORN (DEC 22.- JAN. 20) Use your words, Capricorn! Actions don’t always speak louder than words, and clear communication is kind. Your financial security gets an energy boost on Friday when Venus begins to beautify your income sector. It’s time to indulge a little, so reward yourself. AQUARIUS (JAN. 21.- FEB. 19) What does “safety” mean to you, Aquarius? This week helps you find the people, places, and situations that keep you happy and secure. Venus enters your sign on Friday, making you even more irresistible. Keep your romantic thoughts optimistic—Venus is getting them to happen for you. PISCES (FEB. 20-MAR. 20) Happy birthday, Pisces! You’re trying to sharpen your communication skills, and this week gives you the proof that your effort’s paying off, big-time. Venus enters your closure sector, which could give you a healing release from lovers past so you can love more fully the ones you have now. It's a gift—lean into it!
