      We were in Switzerland some days ago. There are shops that sell better quality at affordable prices greater variety of children’s winter wear.

      The winds were chilling.

        Dear all,


        Where do you get winter clothings for your children? Is there any sale that you know of? Looking at pants, boots and vest that could keep the children warm.

        Thanks in advance!

        Can try Uniqlo, M Dutti. The North Face has nice stuff for kids too. There is a shop in Wheelock Place that sells kids winter clothings ..

        North Face is good quality won't wear for adult and kids. But very ex in Singapore. We bought ours from the US which is at least 30% cheaper on regular price.

          There are many guides available at your all the destination places who can refer you best places further and can also tell you the best way to get entertainment in that city.So it is not a big matter.

                  Hi all, I intend to travel to Europe this june. Ljubljana seems to be quite peaceful and Switzerland is also not bad. Are there any special things to take note of? Is Europe dangerous or not due to recent recession in Greece and Italy where is quite dangerous. Got any tips? Thanks

                    Safety is subjective, but the rule of the thumb is to avoid quiet desolate places, and avoid travelling at night. Tourist attractions all over the world attract criminal elements, so be careful with your wallet and passport.


                    Overall, travelling in Europe is a pleasent experience. Wish you all the best in your travels.

                      The usual rule of travelling applies with regards to personal belongings and safety. Don’t do anything stupid. That said, Europe is one of the safest travelling location. I always tell my friends this :- If they can travel to Malaysia, don’t need to ask about safety when asking about Europe / USA / Australia / NZ etc etc

                        My family just did a backpack holiday in Europe last summer - 2 adults, 2 teen girls. A piece of advice I have is to carry your passport and spare cash in a hidden pouch, leaving only enough for the day in your wallet or pockets. Travel light so you have your hands free - the more things you have on you, the more distracted you will be and the more likely to have your pockets picked. Be aware of people around you and be very alert when approached by strangers who ask for directions, ask for donations, tell you that there is something wrong with your bag/clothes etc - they may well be genuine, but there are a lot of pickpockets around, especially where tourists go. Always have your next destination hotel info on hand with phone nos, map etc, especially if you are arriving at night. If you are booking tickets online, make sure you know if you need to collect paper tickets, and when and where you need to go.
