Tired of the city's hustle and bustle, but don't have time for a long vacation? Don't worry, you're not alone. Sometimes, all we need is a short weekend getaway to recharge before returning to reality.

Forget the crowds of Orchard Road or the density of Bangkok for a moment. In the corners of Southeast Asia, there are still many hidden "treasures" that offer tranquility without having to fly for dozens of hours.

Get your passport ready, here are 5 hidden gem destinations for your next short escape:

1. Polo Iskandar Club Ipoh, Malaysia

Just a 2.5-hour bus ride from Kuala Lumpur to Ipoh, Ballers will find a spot that will make you ask: "Is this really in Malaysia?" The green hilly scenery at Iskandar Polo Club is very similar to the scenery in New Zealand. You can have a relaxing picnic, go horseback riding, or simply enjoy the cool air with the hills as a backdrop. Open from 08.00 - 19.00 with a 30RM entrance fee.

2. Suan Luang Rama IX, Thailand

Forget the hustle and bustle of Siam Square or the queues at Wat Arun for a moment. Try heading towards Prawet. There, you'll find Suan Luang Rama IX, Bangkok's largest botanical garden, rarely touched by tourists.

With its aesthetic international pavilions and calm lake, this place offers tranquility from the chaos of Bangkok's traffic. It's perfect for those who want to heal while taking photos for content with a magnificent architectural backdrop.

3. Anambas Island, Indonesia

Who says tropical paradise only belongs to the Maldives? Indonesia has a "treasure" in the Riau Islands, specifically in the Natuna Sea waters. Bawah Reserve is an exclusive destination that can only be accessed by seaplane from Batam.

Upon landing on the water, you'll be greeted by turquoise blue lagoons and six pristine private islands. A private destination where every corner is designed to provide total tranquility for weary souls.

Short Trips Should Still Be Stylish, Right?

Well, going to untouched destinations often means we have to be prepared for various terrains like slightly rocky or narrow paths. This is where your travel "partner" is put to the test.

When you go on a short escape, a cabin suitcase is the most practical choice so you don't have to wait long at baggage claim. But practical isn't enough. You need a tough and agile suitcase. Tough enough to protect your camera gear and gadgets during your trip, and with wheels that won't give you trouble on various terrains.

Baller is here to ensure that every step you take towards your dream destination feels lighter, safer, and of course, still looks classy in every travel photo.
