Mug mugging

After our first few trips, we decided that we are going to get take a part of the trip back with us everytime. A piece of memory, something to remind us of the experiences and the fun times we've had. So what did we decide? Mugs, there would be mugs everywhere, and that will be pretty to have around the house.

Reality is always a little different

Good mugs are hard to find, shops are usually littered with mugs the typical turist slogan and the jumping Kangaroos, mass manufactured overseas. That little mug, to represent the locality, the local culture are far rare. Often faced with disappointments, we surrender to Maxwell Coffeehouse, a global household cookware giant.

Travelling

Started having the feeling after my first big trip, it was about 97', travelled from Melbourne to Tokyo then to Shanghai and back. The feeling of growth, becoming a different person to the one departed from Melbourne 3 month earlier. The experience was very positive, and ever since, I love travelling.

Hope one day, I would be able to climb the highest mountain and travel across the largest desert. And with Richard Branson's new venture into space tourism, "flying me to the moon" is no long a dream.

Traveller Tales - Creation

Decided to create another blog for our travel stories, this way we can seperate travel tales and the average spit apart :)
