Pre trip week

hello dear, how are you? how’s your week been so far?

For me, it’s been a bit busy because this is the last week for me to be in HK before my 3.5 weeks trip to the UK, so I’ve been kinda busy trying to get things done while also preparing for my trip.

I was in the office on both Monday and Tuesday, because I had some external meetings and also things to review. I felt quite tired physically and socially after being in the office for two days in a row. But I tried to tell myself that this is an exception because I will be able for a month, so before I go, I tried to “show up” more than before.

At the same time after work in the evening, I’ve also started packing for my trip. I found that quite helpful for me to ease my pre trip anxiety, especially that it helps me slowly get mentally ready for the trip. Also because as I pack, it helps me realise what I still need to buy or prepare for the trip, and it’s always good to know these earlier so that I don’t have to do a lot of last minute things. I have quite a bit of things I need to bring over for people I’ll meet, including jojo, my cousin, and another friend, as well as my parents. So even though I usually prefer to travel light, I might have a pretty heavy luggage this time.

I hope that it’ll be an enjoyable and memorable trip this year. I’m just a bit nervous because I haven’t gone back for a year, but I guess as I arrive, the familiar UK vibe will immediately catch up.

Good night dear :)
