TRIP-PING AROUND
in a few hours, i'll be off to yemen. yeap - yemen. ANOTHER place that i'd never thought i'd set foot in in my lifetime.
"why?" you may ask. well, it all started because i have some unutilised credit with air arabia which i need to use before 5th of may (i kinda cancelled a travel plan last year). so i'm not gonna let the unitilised credit go to waste. so hence the need to travel. but i can't really travel that far as i'm in the middle of a project. i knew that i could only take a day off or two. and after consulting the world map application on my facebook profile which i have downloaded (i have a traveler iq of 114, btw :P), i realised that given the limitations, yemen would be a good choice. it may be 2 hours flight away from d*bai, it from the looks of it, it may have been a totally different planet altogether. sure, kuwait or bahrain are closer - but i want to go to a place that's different. a place where there isn'y so many cranes around and pak arabs with luxury cars roaming in the streets.
i'm looking forward to this trip actually. i need a break - both from dubai and malaysia. i'm always miserable in dubai, and i'm always so busy in malaysia. need to go to a different place to clear my head a little. to get a different perspective of life. i hope this trip will give me just that.
see you guys later!
