One more day!

I will be heading off to Taiwan in 1 days time. But there are tons of work left undone and tons more to be done when I am back! It's weird when it feels so tough going for vacation and the BOSS will always question: "why go for so long, must OT finish yr task before you go, remember bring you laptop to check emails! wako, what the fcuk! Anyway that's what happen to my wife, who is still slogging in office to finish her work. I can foresee that there will be 2 laptops tagging along this trip!

Time flies after turning 30! Christmas>New Year>Chinese New year>Valentine day>...and back to Christmas again! Used to save up for the entire year to go for backpacking trip, sourcing for the cheapest flight, 3rd class trains, backpackers inn! Nowadays it's all about time! I am paying 75%more for this trip, reason being peak season and we can all take leave at the same time. If money can buy time, why not?

I have turned from a Backpacker to a "Free and Easy" guy to a TOURist. Like many of you, I hate to wake up TOO early in the morning, travel a long distance on the bus and spend only 30mins at a scenic location! Not even have the time to compose the shot and we have to leave! But time has changed. You cannot expect yr 70+ yrs old dad to walk like nobody's business! Further more with my leg injury and big belly I can hardly walk for too long too!

The last trip to Japan was wonderful. The first part was with tour group and second past was free and easy. But that requires lots of time and $$$!

Well, life is hard and short (人生苦短). We should explore/travel more within our means.
