Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

I traveled about 50 miles total. Half of what I traveled last week!

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

Have to say around 9000 miles! It is incredible how much distance I have covered in a short amount of time!

How did I get around this week?:

Like always, I walked to get around, but also I sat on the back of my friends' scooter, with a helmet of course!

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

I visited a temple that housed a lot of different gods, but it is  mainly known for having Yue Lao (a god, pronounced "you-way lao") inside. He is the god of matchmaking/couples, so many people go to pray to him and present him with a list of how they want their next boyfriend or girlfriend to be. Afterwards, you get to take a red bracelet that you wear until it breaks. Once it breaks, it means your destiny is due.
