If Italy is love of my life, then Spain is my that friend who helped me to become braver.

I took my first solo trip to Spain exactly 5 years ago on this very month. I still remember the day. It was first of July. When and where was your first solo trip? How’s it?

I lived in UK before for my study, away from my home and family. So it may come as surprise to you if I say I never travelled alone before Spain. It was always with family or friends, even in UK. So planning a solo trip to Spain was like a whole new experience to me.

Like any other south-east Asian family, my parents were pretty over protective too. It wasn’t easy to convince them, but they have a stubborn daughter as well. They couldn’t understand why would anyone want to travel alone! What fun in it? I asked myself the same question. Why? And the stubborn girl inside asked me back, “why not?” 🤷♀️

It was an eye opening journey. It turned me into a dream chaser from a dream maker. It made me realize how lil credit I used to give myself. It helped me to understand my self worth. It taught me to trust my gut feelings and my strength more. It gave me the confidence to explore beyond my comfort zone and make friends out of strangers. At the end it made me a storyteller. 🙂

5 years ago, as a solo traveller I was pretty naive. I didn’t have any fancy camera, nor I was any good at taking breathtaking shots. All I had with me was my pretty basic old iPhone. I was mostly busy to observe and enjoy than taking pictures. I hardly have my own pictures from that trip. Even though my camera’s memory was less full, but my own memory is full of beautiful moments.

If you are reading this caption, and contemplating whether to take a solo trip, my earnest suggestion to you would be “YES”! Just take that first step and it will open all the doors for you. Trust yourself! ❤️❤️

Location: Sant Pau, Barcelona. If you think that amazing building is some sort of museum or decorative monument, you are wrong. This is the most beautiful hospital I have seen in my life. I literally went to see it twice. If the hospital is this charming, then I would not mind to be a patient. 😍

I know many of you are curious and interested about China’s approach to covid-19 quarantine and here’s my personal experience of entry into the current Chinese quarantine system. On the 18th of April, I landed Shanghai at approximately 6:30pm local time, there were only 7 of us on the plane, however we still waited for about fifteen minutes before leaving the plane. What followed was a journey through an elaborate sorting system involving standard customs procedures, sit-down interviews with health officials in full protective attire, multiple temperature checks and reviews of contact, travel history as stated on health questionnaires filled out on the plane and a Covid-19 test where they will insert a stick into our nose and mouth to get some samples. It wasn’t very pleasant . We were then escorted to a bus that followed by a police car which designated to take passenger who traveled from a lower risk country that who also lives in the same suburb to a hotel to await results. The next day, at about 11 am, my result came back negative. The head of the neighbourhood committee for our Shanghai suburb who had been in touch with me via wechat(similar to WhatsApp) through this whole process then arranged designated transportation to take me home, and I was the only passenger on the bus. My home had already been approved for self-quarantine as it is a standalone structure and me and my mom were the only two occupants. Once I have arrived home, there were two police waited at the gate and explained the quarantine rules that I am not allowed to leave home for the following 14 days, infrared sensor will be installed at our door ,designated security guard would deliver our food and deliveries to us and could be left at door, designated cleaner would take our garbage everyday and the medical technicians would check on us twice a day. Not long after the police have left, the medical technician came over and checked my temperature. And there was no charge for any of this! Today is my 7th day of home quarantine,thank you for taking your time out to read my super long caption, this experience was surreal😌 I hope you enjoy my unique experience that I have shared. #covid-19
