Eco-Friendly Family Life
My first Christmas in the UK was exactly how I imagined it to be:
Filled with love, lots of smiles with my family in law, and, of course, more layers of clothing than needed in Australia.
I’ve been dreaming of a winter Christmas for a long time.
Even before I was in a long distance relationship with Dan, I’d always imagined spending at least one Christmas in the northern hemisphere, just to experience a cold (or, if I was lucky, a White) Christmas.
As Macau is so easily accessible from Hong Kong, it’s often on the list of ‘things to do’ for many travellers.
I’d heard all these stories about the beautiful old buildings and structures in this city which feels like a throwback to colonial times, and so I thought I must visit too.
I’m going to be honest: I ended up feeling neither here or there on the topic.
Yes, some of the buildings in Macau were pretty, and I got to see some historic landmarks, but apart from that we just walked around in the stifling heat.
I guess if we were into Casinos and high-end shopping we might have been more taken with Macau, but I kind of left feeling like the day could have been better spent.
During my most recent travels, I had a 36 hour stopover in Singapore: Two nights and the day in between.
What a perfect opportunity to explore what I could of this wonderful city.
