#1 Top 3 β€˜Hidden’ Speakeasy Bars in KL - A local guide

For the first featured post of today @yasminep takes us around three bars in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. These bars are not your average bars though, as if you wouldn't know about them, you'd likely never end up at them, being as tucked away as they are. The first bar @yasminep takes us to is Omakase, concealed between the ground floor and the basement of a corporate building and a 'no admittance' sign right on the door, it remains a hidden gem. The cool thing about Omakase is that you can let the bartender decide what drink he should make for you and according to @yasminep they somehow always get it right! Next up is PS150. Granted it has become quite well known among locals, it's still an amazing bar. Concealed behind a toy stall, it still won't be the place a tourist generally ends up at though. With its proximity to Chinatown, it might be well worth it to swing by if you're around there! @yasminep, this place holds the best looking people though, so if you're in for some flirting, this might be where you want to go, haha! Last up is HYDE 53M, this is the most expensive one of the three and the hardest to get to. If you decide on a slightly more upper class place, this is the bar for you. With good cocktails and an amazing ambiance. .

#2 Dead Sea, Israel

For our second featured post of today @veta-less takes us to the Dead Sea in Israel. After being told that there is nothing beautiful to see around there, she's on a mission to prove that there is! On the drive towards the Dead Sea, you can see green fields where once was a desert, but the closer you get to the Dead Sea, the more the landscape starts to resemble the expected desert. If you're on the lookout you can spot some Bedouins grazing their camels. Eventually @veta-less arrives at the Dead Sea, which is the lowest point on Earth. After walking around the beach and buying some of the famed Dead Sea cosmetic products, it's time to test the water for a swim. Due to the huge amount of salt in the water, you kind of get pushed out, which is an interesting experience. The salt does mean, that small scratches on the body start to burn. On the beach, you'll find small heaps of salt all over. Across the water you can see the country Jordan! Perhaps for a next visit?

#3 Cafe Les Grands Arbres, Tokyo

For our last featured post @jrvacation takes us to the Cafe Les Grands Arbres, Tokyo, Japan. What makes this place so special, is that it holds a tree-house on the outside. It's located on the 4th level of the Fleur Universells flowershop, making it a 3 for 1 experience: florist shop, cafe and tree house! With most of the areas prohibiting video-taking, we'll have to satisfy ourselves, with a video from ground floor flower shop. The place is quite known, and is pretty much always running on full-house. Reserving a spot is only able through a Japanese handphone number, which @jrvacation did not have. Luckily, she is still allowed to hang around and check out the tree house, where she gets a few snaps with the help of passerby lady!
