Suriname and Liechtenstein

Have you ever heard of these countries? I never, and yesterday my colleague showed me. You can find out more at these links.

One is like a 'money laundering' nation (sounds like 'lick - a - stain')and the other, suriname is a small country in south america.

The world is so BIG. We shouldnt just set our sights in Singapore indeed...

I always have this wish to live abroad for a few years and coming back to Singapore. Singapore is still my home, despite the shortcomings.But I'd like to have the experience of living on my own, abroad.

But alas, I never find that opportunity to stay abroad. (I did look, but nothing like that come up. Now, just make do with my job which involves a certain amount of travelling).

As my parents age and as I age (I am only a few years before becoming an ELDER in singapore context, HAHA), I find that the wish to stay by their side is more and more. Afterall, their time is limited, whether I like it or not, we all go someday.

I am not a fantastic daughter.. but I will try my best..
