For my only full day in Hong Kong, I had a few hours to myself in the morning. I started off by going to the post office to mail off a parcel. Hong Kong is probably the only place outside of Canada where it’s easy for me to run errands. I love being able to get things done like a local and I feel like I can maximize my time doing other things when I’m allowed to be productive. It…
By the time we got to Hong Kong I was thoroughly confused by the time difference as it was the fourth time zone I had traveled to during the trip. Our flight landed at 4:30am and we had to wait almost an hour and a half for the first trains to leave for the city. I also had to reactivate my Octopus card, as it had been a couple years since I last used mine. After making it back home…
Back from another vacation! It’s definitely the longest I’ve travelled by distance – over 15,000 km to Sydney, Australia from Toronto.

The next day was my return flight back home. I wasn’t sure what to expect at the airport.

I guess because travel hasn’t picked up, the demand for in town check-in had dropped and they suspended the service. It was too late for me since I was already there with my…
The night after visiting WKCD I ended up going to an AYCE hotpot restaurant where at the time, I didn’t realize I ate way too much, but definitely felt it during the middle of the night when I woke up at 3am wanting to throw up. It’s been three years since I’ve done any major traveling and I still haven’t learned to control my tendency to overeat while on vacation. (T__T) The following day was wasted because I was too sick to get…
