London, here I come

Posted on May 1, 2007 - Topics: Personal

First post, resharing my European travelogue from October 2005 to kickstart this new blog.

London and Europe trip 2005

From KL to London

Took an early ride to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, departing to London to visit my sister and to embark on a 19-days European trip together.

It had been five years since I last travelled overseas – with exception of the neighbouring Singapore – which is a pretty long break for a self-proclaimed travel enthusiast LoL.

Reached Heathrow after 11 hours of flight. Had a rough time passing through the customs because of the bombing a few months before my visit. The security was understandably tight.

Met my sister at the airport lobby soon after, she was working on secondment in London back then. It was great to see her again, as it had been almost a year since we last met. It was also her birthday, speaking of perfect timing for a reunion =)

Took the Underground to Chiswick, the train was not as crowded as expected. The weather was predictable though, drizzling… not that it’s a bad thing, I am not a sunshine lover.

Ordered Chinese food for dinner. Didn’t expect that, thought my first meal on this trip would be fish and chips or at least some British stuff. Rest early after that because of jet lag.

That’s my first day of the trip, nothing spectacular. More stories to follow…

Next: Buckingham Palace, London

PS: Welcome to my new home. I’m not a great writer or photographer but I’m always working on improving that. Besides my personal stories, I’ll be sharing interesting news from around the web too, especially stuff from Asia Pacific region. Hope you will like this blog, thanks for reading =)
