January 2025

Here comes January. I was filled with anxiety at the beginning of January as I will be setting off soon for another one of my adventures in South East Asia. South East Asia is a place that I am not very fond of and a place I feel uncomfortable even talking about it even though it has been a place I grew up in and called home for the past 19 years since my departure from quite an interesting life in England. I grew up thinking I belong somewhere else and as I started travelling far and wide later in life, I found out that I don't really belong anywhere. Strange but true!

In another few weeks time, I will hop onto a train in Malaysia and travel up north to Thailand - a place that I have been to many times. Would it be any different this time around? The scenery would still be the same, but, I guess the only difference is, I will be travelling on a much cheaper and a much more cramped carriage. Let's just hope that there would be adequate space for me to travel in comfort. Perhaps, just another one of my wishful thinking!
