7 weeks have flown by... and I have managed to conquer Phillipines, more of Korea and now heading to Japan in exactly 23 hours!! I unfortunately have not been able to blog about all of my travels, but I will certainly get back and write close to a novel about all the excitement. In bullet point form here are some highlights to expect:
Nightlife of Manilla- the sex-trade capital of the world
The peaceful yet exhilarating sailing of Boracay
The scrumptious prawns and mouth-watering mangoes
A hike up a volcano in Tagaytay
Volunteering at the Leisure(less) Games
Coffee-cup readings from a Turkish girl
Scootering adventures around town: goodbye taxis, hello independence!
Soul searching and dancing shoes in Daejon with a very close friend
Cross-dressing and mayhem in Sokcho
Couch hosting a Frenchie who played me music on his guitar
Stop over in Seoul for a kuier met n regtige Suid Afrikanse seun
JAPAN!!!!!
I leave tomorrow morning and head straight to TOKYO!!!!!
I am meeting my dearest and oldest friend -Lissy Lau for 9 days of a complete and utter sheer travelling extravaganza!
2 nights Tokyo
3nights Sendai
2 nights Kyoto
1 night Osaka
Home James! Just in time to host 2 more turkey gals on my couch and celebrate my birthday on 27th!
3 things I need to mention about planning for Japan:
1. I was told by my one student that I am very Bourgeoisie for going to Japan and I kindly responded well, to be honest eating Kimbap for the entire month prior has been interesting.
2. My JR PASS (Japanese Rail Pass) for 7 days cost double what I paid for my scooter!!!
3. I am meeting Lisa in the busiest intersection in the world! It only has 8 lines crossing it and 200 exits! Holy COW! If we actually meet up -it is a miracle!
Adios amigos
KONNICHIWAH JAPAN!
