Ho..Ho..Holiday!- Part I

Guess where these photos were taken from?

LANGKAWI!
I just got back from a short vacation there and I’m still thrilled about the whole trip.

Why? First, is due to the fact that my work so far have brought me to a few countries including the remote areas in Malaysia, but prior to this vacation, I never set my foot in Langkawi – not even for courses/teambuilding etc. Whenever there was an opportunity arisen, I usually been shoved away somewhere else for that ‘all important job’.

Secondly, I had always wanted to go for a holiday on my own. I was not expecting some luxurious or action-packed holiday, but what I really want is a golden gateway somewhere- where I can be take a break from all the work/life routines and be careless and carefree even for a short while.

My idea of a perfect vacation - loitering at the beach

But me, being me, I just don’t like planning ahead for everything, which resulted me got tangled in other commitments – I had time for everything else except for myself. However, prior to Lin’s wedding last August, it just came to my realization that I need to go for an all girls holiday really soon before all my girl friends got hitched. It was now or never.

But besides discussing with Raject about going for a holiday together, I hadn’t do nothing much about it. So I must say that I really owe Raject a lot on this trip. She was the one who observed the flight fares offer, Goggle about the holiday destination, book the hotel – basically she did everything and all I had to do was to say yes or no and pay for my part.
