Travelling

There was again a brief hiatus on this blog, and I only have unplugged holidays, uni exams and two new years in a month to blame. December went well with a trip to Southern Germany with Ying Hui, followed by a crazy few weeks of revision, then now, believe or not, I'm in Malaysia to celebrate Chinese New Year with the dearest people to me.

Didn't plan to come home until I graduate next summer, and wanted to travel somewhere in Europe for a treat after our exams (supposedly Netherlands, and ironically I did stop over at Amsterdam for transit on my way back). What changed my mind - I do not know - but what I'm certain of is that getting the flight ticket home was probably one of my best 500 quid spent on something. I kept it away from my family's knowledge for a month, and the expressions on their faces when they saw me at the restaurant last night was really, priceless. 

This also means that I would have to wait a little longer before I can get my 35mm 1.4. But that's okay. 


I want to show you how pretty Triberg was. I want to tell you about my fair share of sunsets, and brag more about the amount of lebkuchens we ate in Nurnberg. There is much to tell but as for now, I'm just gonna head down to the beach and read The Fault In Our Stars till it's time for lunch.

Life at home is good.
