On 21 September 2019, I arrived at Kunming Changshui International Airport at about 2am. I traveled with a friend and spent our night napping in an airport bistro. Our travel to Kunming is to trek the Tiger Leaping Gorge.
Overpacking or underpacking. Aren’t we all guilty of this. In my early days of travelling, I had done countless overpacking.
On 13 Dec 2017, I flew to the Philippines with my two nieces, aged 10 then, and my mom. It was a relaxing aeroplane journey until we had to go through immigration at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
In November 2015, I told myself I would put travel plans to rest because I needed to save money for Iceland in winter the following year.
But Iceland never happened in 2016, for reason I couldn’t recall, and I remember telling myself I would make it happen the following year.
After 16 months of not travelling, I flew to Luang Prabang – a city in north central Laos – for a short trip in April/May 2017.
