HK! Ready or not, here we come!

My feet is itching and I'm ready to go. The countdown has started. I'm talking about our company trip to Hong Kong next week. It's our company anniversary and the whole office will be mobilised. So I'm terribly excited and grateful, that my bosses have generously included, and therefore, sponsored me on this trip.

This will be our second trip since I joined the research company 3 months ago. Only this time, the trip is not work-related. I've put aside more than half of my pay for my expenses... you know my (ironic) money-saving tip, save and splurge big-time where clothes are cheaper. So that's what I've heard, HongKong is much more affordable when it comes to fashion.

More than anything, close friends know I've this thing for travelling. Think it's my travel feet. I've not been to many places but I constantly think about travelling to Europe, Japan, Nepal and other exotic locations. My biggest 'breakthrough' trip was to the US. Four years ago, I saved for over a year to make a trip to Indiana and California, against my parents' wishes. I don't think I knew then, what I was gettting myself into but all things considered, I was richer for the experience. I've more stories to tell (and blog) and I made friends I still keep in touch with till this day. It was not particularly eventful, although I did visit Disneyland, but that trip gave me alot of self-confidence and a great sense of independence.

I'm quite impatient actually. I want to see as many places as I possibly can, in my lifetime. I have this notion in my head that I can always earn back the money I spend on travelling..but not the time I could have spend, exploring this world.
