Dream location: Transfăgărășan

Don't ask me how to pronounce this.

It just so happened that I was surfing the net and I came across this beautiful road in Romania.

Over the past year, I have came to realise how much I love road trips. I don't mind taking the wheel on long drives, especially on roads that are unique - challenging, scenic, breathtaking in all aspects.

In this case, Transfăgărășan does it.

 Check out the write-up here.

I hope I can visit this special highway one day.

An early countdown

The clock is ticking. In just about 8 more months, we will be moving back home!

I was planning to throw away my passport so that I don't have to leave this slow paced, relaxing life behind to re-enter the rat race back home.

But upon reading past entries, I realise my life back home isn't so bad. Sure, it's laden with work-woes, black eye bags, pimple outbreaks (cyst!), lack of personal space, me-time.

But it's a life that I somewhat enjoyed and appreciated. I love being intellectually stimulated at work, I love meeting friends for dinner every now and then, I love being able to fly back to HK once in a while to see my grandparents (or get away to Bangkok to shop!)

I know I will miss USA so much. But I'm starting to get more excited about what lies ahead back home too.

What awaits us? Will we go back to our original lifestyle? Will we have a totally different perspective on life and living, now that we have see more of the world?

We will find out in 8 more months...
