Taken in Shanghai. Yellow sent to me when I was away. Saved it because that day was horrible, and it brighten my day.
Good night, Cami.
Today. Its stay home day. Chicken soup, tidying the place. Post Scandi trip unpacking as well. 2 pieces on display. Folded hands, Norway. Is my fav. I see calmness, determination yet relaxed... Do you see any? Lastly, currencies is my thing. Been to 28 countries to date. Excluding of course Singapore. Thats birth country.
Alrighty, time to do some weights. Another souvenirs from trip;tummy fats.
Very ideal, isnt. Still believe, its do able. Anyway. 2 part. Back to love languages. It has to be one of those; time, words, gifts, acts or sex*... Also, its able learning to apologize(properly,mean it!). Bound to have fights, but it about learning to fight fair,fight short and no resentment thereafter...
Anyway. Soul mate, is such perfect word. Ditch it bah. Last but not least, common interests. I believe that creates happy marriage. On train up to Flam, theres this HK couples(50 60s) whos talking about what lens to use for shoot,how to block the glare... I like it!
Lalalala~countdown Singapore/Malacca !
I love how the blog works. You read as and when. Not urgent. Unimportant? Anyway yes. Work friends. Could be not out of admiration. They are just too strong to be enemy. Trump. Still, I feel its not lost yet, depending on his vice president ticket. SIN. END July. See if we coincide.
P.s Happy belated birthday Nadal. Dont say that.. Impossible is possible for this guy. Grand slam.
The trip. Plently of cheese, bread and meat. Now, it feels like staple for me. Fries included. Makes me feel like a criminal.
So, 15 days. 5 new countries, 7 cities. I love my coverage, didnt want to do too much preparations, so strategy is to not stay in a city for too long. ALL expenses included, except shopping. Is 4.5k SGD. Actually all accommodations could be 2 pax. Hence, for the most expensive region of EUR, I did fine, isnt.
4 entries to be done. Accommodation, Kaffe, Relae V.2 and Predications.. Starting to miss travelling, but great to be home. Contradict.
Its my first time having A5. Verdict. It tastes like forie ga. Very oily. We didnt like it at all. First and last.
Arrived this morning. Flight service was attentive and makes you feel people. CX rawks. Had a female captain on the return leg. Gal power !!
My plan when I reached home; kiss yellow. Clothes into machines. Welcome to bring ingredients and brew chicken soup. Follow by house keeping. Our bedroom. Smell like his hostel room during my uni days..All clean and green now, speak soon enjoy long.weekend !
Very least. I made him change bedsheets with me.. He did a very good job; even better than me.
Saw the fellow typing away in lounge. Quick bite, on phone, check email.. Guess, I should take another 6mths off, then start working !
Last night in this trip..I have just arrived at midnight. Flight was delayed for 3hours. Leaving at 10 in the morning. With this amazing view, I refused to sleep. Cook a little supper. Bgt 2 cups from HK. You, thanks for accompanying me for this trip. MuackZ. Tired.
Bergen. Is indeed the rainnest city. Started to rain soon after I arrived. But now, I define that as misty. Wouldnt consider that rain. Back tracking my route for yesterday. Wanna get those adidas slippers for PQ. Yes, not Filippa K, not J Linderb.(anyway those are my 2 faves in this trip). But well, have to buy something she likes, isnt. Lunch was so good, I order 2 pax. I love my seafood!
Wifey. Is a term used by M. Being a newly wedd,he starts using the term. I prefered our old ones, ma-er.. Anyway. Whats makes a good wifey. Am I a good wifey. What your husband expect of a wifey. Qns to ask yourself. For me, good is 出得天堂,入得厨房。Told S about B's wife. Chinese, they are. We are treated to an awesome home cooked meal. After dinner,we mingle while she washes all the dishes.. Gentle lady. Yet pretty, capable and treated B like 一家之主。(at least in front of us). Anyway, she draws a good salary and does her best to support B in his career. The last and first pointers; are important to me. Am I a good wifey. Passable I believed, not good, good. So what does Yellow expected. Truely believe, he is, happy wife happy life. He has zero expectations. If I were to, maybe treating her families nicer ?!
LASTLY. TRUMP. Though they joke about you. I am looking forward to. Trump era. Clinton; so political correct. No. No charm. Sian!
This route, is considered one of the best in Europe. Its not difficult to see why. The entire 5 hours, you be wow-ed with. For the record, I love sitting on economy class more. Getting your hot dog from cafer, reason for walking around, more virbrant environment(tour group families). And nope, I didnt lose my luggage.
Of all the nationalities, Thai,Sweds Dannes Finns, Italians, Indians Japanese. Singaporeans! Only Japanese asked for a photo together. Alot of photoa actually... Below is the first..
However, not a great fan of todays internary. Touristy, sitting duck. Stopping at specific point for photo snapping. On boat to Bergen now. Clocking a total of 12 hourz sitting. Not my cup of tea.
Less than 24 hours. The most expensive place in Europe. Nope, i didn't see the oil rig no. But the affluent element, can feel it... Anyway, up to Flam and Bergen. Meant for family and couple?. For solo travels, cities best bet,isnt But, its only 1 day. Keep you posted.
Arrived in Oslo at noon. Plan for this pit.stop was to have lunch, back to hotel for french open mans final and sleep early. Leaving for fyrods at 6am. Murray won the first set, and its 5pm. Told myself that I should at least check out the Opera House since its nearby. Have a walk, as the sky is ridiculously blue today!
So. This is it. You can walk on the open rooftop. Now that is summer, people are stripping and sunbathe.. Particularly like the part that extend out to the sea, its seamlessly intergreting into the surrounding. Back to hotel now, shower, followed by french open. I bet ND won. Hes so consistent that I hate his great game. Boring.
One of the must do on my Stockholm list is metro art. Wanted to show it to Matt when I see him next. Theres a daily art tour but I chosen to just hop on off myself; to me, that the way metro should be. Focusing on the key ones I read about, they are all pinned in central area. All done in 25mins max. My fav being Kungstradgarden. Theatrical, bold and the randomness is my kind of thing. Balancing between selling advertising space and beautifying the city, they did a good job, isnt.
Intent was to look for asian food near my hotel. Saw this article on hostelworld;cheap eats in Oslo. Featuring Thai called the Rice bowl. Walked 15mins just to find that its closed. Didn't meant to be isnt? So, I walked to my next destination. On my way, theres a little park and out of curiosity, I went....
So! Second branch of rice bowl. Omg! Isnt this, a picture right out of Thailand!! Only that, its windy. 17degress out here.
LIFES GREAT.
Throughout this trip, I miss certain people when at certain spot. I missed Yellow when I passed by this @ Copenhagen. Told him; that I effort-ed to take a good picture to show him. My next trip. I want to be with him. No solo stunt.
Husband and wife. It is family. But theres has to be love. Host MF said. Its about being compatible. Habitual. Some truth in that, isnt. Anyway, he wont be reading this.. But birthday incident. My love language. Is gifts! Applies to all categories. People just don't get it, why?
Nope, I never been. Its my first! Pleasant and I like the cold breakfast that they serve. S told me to go for first class, stating that its safer. Do as told. 听妈妈的话 ;) If you are there on the ride, I would love ittt MUCH MORE. Thing you dont know. Sometimes, I get jealous about you and M. I.e your latest updates coming from M. Always tell myself, its geographical boundaries.. Haha.
I know you be reading this. I envy you. Your first train ride is 12? Musically inclined, upbringing, career woman and loving wife/mother. You makes me feel like I want family(kid). Anyway. Happy lemonandes in Aus! MUACKZ.
Literally was out for only 3 hours today. Sausage,T-bana art and waste time Acne. Just back from spa, blogging and burger time. Spa wasnt the Budapest type, but large scale, modern and elegant. Probably the second best spa I been to.
On my bikini. Estimate, I am 3kg fatter post Maldives. Yes, I kept my weighing scale away. Dont let what I see:( Haiz. Anyway, back to spa.
Favourite was the cold bucket shower(sooo cute), nordic area and hydro waterfall pressure. @ waterfall, I wish Pet was there. Kick arse good massage for the shoudlers and back. Although we dont speak on daily basis. But we are definitely not bus ride or whatever comes and go friends. But I do hope it gets to pre R* period.
Will head back to spa tomorrow! This is the best thing so far for Stockholm. Come on Stockholm, you can do better!
Back in Stockholm this morning. Intent is to take it easy. Been clocking 5 hours sleep average for past week. Tired.
Gunters' was a recommendation from E. Being Chinese, who asked for well done steak, I was at first skeptical about it. Glad I came. Was worth it, waiting time was 20mins up at a takeaway kiosk. Ordered spicy sausage. While waiting, saw locals ordering it with sauerkraut. So, live like a local.
Proved to be a good addition. The baguette itself was good. He spread 2 types of sauces inside, look homemade. Love the way it was presented too, sausage in a hole. It is neat when I eat it, I give this 5 stars;) Would say this is fast food, good quality.. Worth checking out! Particularly, Acne Achrive is 3mins away. Nope, I didnt shop today.
Well. This is a ongoing discussion, isnt. Alot to ponder, engaging discussion but perhaps very little concluded. Anyway. I always believe in investment. Friendship, need effort as well. But again, if you love your friend, it becomes second nature; that it is effortless, isnt?
At the end of the day. Self centered(selfish) is probably an outcast. If, the conversation always about yourself, you dont care to find out what others are feeling, tough keeping it up. Being an only child. I feel that I fall into the category. Not too sensitive or aware of others' feelings. For me, it needs a conscious effort. To always remind myself. Friends, we hug. It needs to be two way traffic.
Today. I thought of F. I seldom do. Its really random thoughts. We dont usually meet up. But when we do, I realized she makes the conversations alot about YOU. She dont start with "I". Its not a sales technique. It is the way she engineered/process Awesome, isnt? I watapp her today, asking which marreikkom shes likes. I wonder if she finds it weird.. Anyway, things I thought about, at this solo voyage.
Also, theres work friends. We dont hangout on weekends. Talks about personal life though. Guessed, whats important is we admire each others work ethics?or maybe we just click. Anyway. They always do you a favour when needed. Not asking for returns. But surely. You should remenber, show gratitude. Return in due. In order for lasting friendship.
Another dimension. Is my bff. Its always about HIM. His selfies. Etc. Yet. He is bfff. So, thats what I called inconclusive discussion. But again, its what makes friendship interesting.
Thanks for being my friend. Thanks for staying in my life. I love you(s).
So, I get to see what makes you miss your flight. And yes, your understanding is accurate. I like the this, better than the rock church. Truth be told. I actually stayed for no more than 5mins. I am too hungry. On hindsight, I should have gotten lunch first, isnt.
Anyway. I love Helsinki. The street sights and the people.. If my lugguge was with me, I would have ditch the return ferry to Stockholm.
Sure I be back Finland. Things I wanna see before I die. Northern Lights. Muackz. Btw, I gotten a tee from formal friday for you. Got to figure out how I pass to you then...
My favourite street in Copenhagen. I like the multi cultural feel. Its hip. Theres trendy shops; place called vinyl and beers. Coffee and sneakers. Kebabs right next to high end restaurants.. A shop that sells unique homewares. I missed PQ when I was there..I believed she will like this street.
Onboard now. Lots of locals. Was chatting with them and realised this is their regular affair. Come onboard, enjoy tax free shopping and most importantly alcohol. Alcohol is heavily taxed in Sweden. Behind me. Is sweden archipelago.. Entering Baltic Sea soon. Omg. Lot of free time on hand. I am bored to death. Btw, this trip costs me 68 EUR, return tickets. Overnight at cabin, day in Helsinki. Back Stockholm on Fri. Good choice!
So! Changes in my schedule. I am cruising over to Finland. Also, my final leg, I have a night supposedly staying in Amsterdam. I decided to train to Hauge instead.
Staying in an penthouse with amazing view. Also. To visit Lola and bikes;- supposedly the best cafe in Netherlands. Award winning.
What kind of traveller I am. Out of habitat. I am excited. Genuinely curious. I love to see. Beautiful(pple). The rare. The previous.
Muackz. Good night.
Wow. I been on the road for a week now. Didnt feel like it at all. Deciding whether to hop on a cruise to Helsinki, crossing the Baltic sea.. Stockholm didnt seems like it needed 5 days. Anyways its a champagne problem. Not to worry.
So, today. I visited the Vasa Museum. Therefore, intent was to do foto musuesm but.. A toilet search turned into a full blown 5hrs shopping spree. Find me guilty. Somehow, I look very clued when I in Stockholm or Copenhagen. Credit to Map.me. Its awesome, good search suggestions, especially since in foreign languages. Just need to make sure I got power bank, I spring from place to places! Like a local.
Alone is so great. Had the time to think to myself(of course i dont talk to.) Omg. Back to research. Baltic sea or not?
Haiz. Makes me think abt Cami again. Wishilivesinsingapre. Muackz.
