I have always been fantasizing about travelling to different countries, learning new cultures and simply observing the different people,buildings and atmosphere of that particular country.
I would also like to say I am very blessed to be able to be able to go to a few countries at this age as i know of some of my friends who are older but family are unable to have the financial ability to take a plane and go on a holiday.
My destination was Perth. It was the second time I was visiting Australia. The first time was Sydney.
Unlike the other times, I went with my mum's colleagues which was given to them as an incentive trip.
As I happened to be working at my mum's office doing administration work,I was given the task to plan my first itinerary,plan the budget and book the tickets. I'd almost made the whole group stuck at the airport for the wrong particulars i registered for our plane tickets. Luckily, I had my colleague to help me. There are many things for me to learn.
Perth is very slow pace. Most shops closes at 5pm and unlike Singapore, people aren't in a rush or taking out their phone to take pictures of the food and mostly focus on spending time talking and eating with their friends.
I also saw many parents bringing their children to the zoo or playground during the weekends and rneally spending time teaching them to skate and play with them.
I feel that these are things that Singaporeans should learn more from instead of just passing our phone and pads to our children to let them pass time in fast food restaurants.
