Back from another vacation! It’s definitely the longest I’ve travelled by distance – over 15,000 km to Sydney, Australia from Toronto. I flew 6 flight segments in total during this trip, spending over two full days in the air. To put that in another perspective, I watched 7 full length featured films while flying, not including the time I spent sleeping or eating. It’s crazy how I managed to do this in under two weeks.

The reason I was interested in going was because there was a Kusama Yayoi exhibition being held…
The next few days in Hong Kong were mostly spent chilling at home in the mornings and going to the malls in the afternoon. Since I was unable to eat in restaurants, it was easier to limit my time out so I could save myself the hassle of having to return home each time for a meal. But after spending so many hours at the mall, both my wallet and my luggage space were significantly depleted, so I needed to find other…
