Christmas and New Year 2021 is coming. It is the time of the year for housekeeping, spring cleaning . And boy &#8211; look what I found. Do you remember when we go travelling we always have to equip ourselves with maps and sometimes we like to buy a travel guide book so as to get familiarize with the city before touch down. Today we can google everything i.e. 10 things to do at Venice ( which by the way is one of my favorite city in Europe ) , use Google Map, Waze etc. to find your way to the highly recommended restaurants, caf\u00e9 , or tourist spot for the perfect Instagram photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we take pictures happily, there was a time when we do not really know how it turned out until when we come back home , have the negatives processed . Unlike today , we can see the result immediately, and pose for that selfie\/ we-fie again for the perfect angle, perfect take. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a time also when , we may take a video of our trip and when we come back home , either burn it into a tape recorder \/ CD . And I confess, that I would patiently wait for the postcards I sent from my trips overseas to arrive, with the country of origin stamps as well. Those were the days . <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that the Sultan&#8217;s Adventure ticket when I was in Taiwan back in 90 (Taiwan Calendar) . Do you know that Taiwan calendar or Minguo calendar  uses 1912, the year of the establishment of the Republic of China (Taiwan), as the first year.&nbsp;It was confusing isn&#8217;t it. So do you know Year 90 in Taiwan is year ? in the Gregorian Calendar? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2020 has been such a challenging year , with no travel overseas for leisure \/ business , we can only reminiscent of our previous travel experiences and plan for some future visits to places we have not been to. It is also a time to:- <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>a)  look back in our life. As I walk down the nostalgic memory lane, there are questions I ask myself like things I should have known when I was in my twenties and you can read my new book  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08NYN7S3D\/ref=cm_sw_r_wa_awdb_t1_NmeVFbEWP05QZ?fbclid=IwAR0RbDkasqraFsx8UQ-CDfYOv5unbXLBIveTPVadEJO5WZOLsFmdtpMISMs\">here<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>b) take some time to plan for thing we had not done or achieved , but would like to at least give it a try. With the new normal , I look forward to exploring &#8220;my own backyard&#8221;- Malaysia. Keep an eye on this space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the meantime , Happy Thanksgiving , Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2021 . Stay Safe and Healthy , everybody. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello there! Thanksgiving is here &#8211; a time to be grateful for the year.
