No... it's not a backpacking trip. It was a luggage trip. Why the big one? I carried stuff over for my adopted family in Shenzhen. The hand carry was for us to move around in different places. Age is really catching up. The only thing we said at the end of the day was we were tired, really tired, freaking tired and extremely tired and we dropped on different beds every night.
We actually don't have a solid plan right until one month before. We were hectically planning out but some parts didn't work out but God is so good, God sent people from every corner of Taiwan to help us out. Not only in Taiwan, actually we had our paw prints marked on many places. Seriously, don't ask me to follow any tour group, it would drive me crazy. Pinky and I couldn't stand following tight schedules but ended up we had tighter schedule. Being away from home for a month was the longest for me. I've never left my house for so long but I felt very at home in Shenzhen.
In short, it was a great trip together. It's our fourth time meeting up together. We're planning for the fifth meet up. Fancy having an international friend that we could only meet up by taking hours and hours of flight. Maybe if we're living just around the corner, we wouldn't bother to meet up.
I will write about everything in detail.... if I have the time. I am currently staring at 9 memory cards filled with photos. I'm not that keen in taking photos anymore... dunno why... *sigh* I think I'm suffering from jet lag now... I'm so disorientated and sleepy and tired and everything... I have mix feelings about everything. One minute I'm really happy that I've arrived home safely because during the last week in China, I was hit with a serious problem of homesickness. Now that I'm home, I'm thinking about Shenzhen...
You know what I'm really grateful for? It's everything that I have. Living in different houses, I finally realize that my house is really big and I'm blessed to have not only one house but a few. I only need to keep the houses neat and tidy and do some interior designing work. I don't even know where to start from... It's like plastering money all over the house just to make it look nice. I do prefer DIY but it's not that easy... whatever... I need to start clearing some mess now... don't even know where to start from...
We met all sorts of people throughout our month-long journey... and I do miss some of them pretty badly... I hate some of them, too... Now that I'm back to my mundane life, I would choose to keep the good memories with me and never mention the bad memories... the only thing that I have is a good memory box that store everything.... need to sort out so many things... physically and mentally... really tiring... confirm suffering from jet lag.... but I feel like going for a swim... it's so hot over here...
