5 Reasons Why You Need A Travel Agent - More Than Ever

Want to rent a villa in Tuscany and do it on your own? It’s simple. Just type “Villa Rentals Tuscany” into Google, then wade through the four and a half million responses - most of which look the same, whether they are good or bad, legit or bogus. Spend just 10 seconds each vetting sites, and you’ll be done in a year and a half - and still won’t have rented anything.

Good luck with that - or even with much simpler planning, like searches for “straightforward” airfares. The major search sites routinely leave out flights (lots of them) and even entire airlines. A lot of the flights they do show are ones you don’t want, starting with “basic economy” fares that hit you with tons of restrictions and fees, so the price you see isn’t the one you end up paying, along with connections way too short or way too long, ones that no responsible travel agent would let you book.

Travel agents are even more important to luxury travelers, who ironically often think they know a lot about travel and rely on their own misguided sense of expertise. But while a good agent is so vital that it is simply foolish to plan a high-end trip on your own without one, they can also help travelers of all budgets.

The reality is that while it was widely predicted that the internet was going to kill off travel agents when digital tools were placed at every traveler’s disposal, that just hasn’t happened, for several good reasons.

Shannon Compton Game writes on money saving travel tips and budget travel for Outside Magazine, not the publication I’d expect to praise travel agents over DIY. But last year she wrote a column about his subject and opened with, “I’m a big fan of travel agents, even though I could technically book all my trips through websites and apps.” She then listed the specific pros of using an agent: “They can find crazy deals”; “They will be your advocate”; “They’ll take care of the little things”; “They’re true experts” and “They don’t usually cost extra.”

True, true, true, true and true. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

I have been writing on travel and related tips for over a quarter of a century. I’m an expert on the subject, and I get interviewed and publicly speak about it. Do I sometimes use a travel agent? Absolutely. When friends ask for travel advice, and they do, all the time, one of the first suggestions I always make is to get a good travel agent. My tech savviest friends use travel advisors, and so does every major corporation - because it is the smart thing to do.

“Yes, the travel landscape is changing,” said Chad Clark, principal of Chad Clark Travel Ventures in Phoenix, an expert I have known for years. “Information overload, thousands of new hotels on the scene, all sorts of new cruise ships, passport and visa issues, weather, transit strikes, political unrest, natural disasters, travel insurance, travel providers going out of business, it’s never ending. How does one navigate all of this? To avoid the travel landmines that lay in front of you, you need to get a great travel advisor! You’ll be glad you did. After all, do you cut your own hair?” Good question, but his metaphor is a little off because you pay someone to cut your hair, while a good travel advisor can often save you money.

I wrote a feature about this topic here at Forbes eight years ago, and I still get thank you comments from people who took my advice. A lot has changed in those eight years, and a lot has not, so if anything, there are more reasons than ever to use a travel agent (for the record, good travel agents prefer to be called travel advisors, or sometimes travel consultants, and those are both totally accurate, but since most people still think of the industry in terms of travel agents, I’m mixing and matching).

Clark explained it to me this way, “Travel agents are a thing of the past - they primarily booked tickets and beds. Travel advisors have taken on a much more complex role - part psychologist, life coach, executive producer, concierge, fixer, dream maker, and ‘Blink Blink’ genie, with the multitude of services that they provide.”

Whatever you call them, I could go on and on about all the reason to use one, but here are the 5 biggies.

Emergencies: This is the one most applicable to the average occasional travel. Stuff happens, and whether you believe in climate change or not (spoiler alert, it’s real), big weather events have become more commonplace, widespread and unpredictable, and sooner or later Mother Nature is going to bite you when flying. But there are plenty of non-weather events disrupting flights, cruises, trains and destinations, from civil unrest to volcanic eruptions to disease outbreaks to massive wildfires to labor strikes. And just about every year you read about an airline that went bust and shut down suddenly, stranding all its passengers. Just a week ago I traveled with owner of a large New York based travel agency who has been in the business for 40 years, and he told me they recently stopped selling their customers tickets on Norwegian because the airline has had too many cancellations and became, in their view, unreliable. But cheap flights still show up in internet searches, and you probably would not know anything about it without expert advice.

Anything that causes cancelled flights (or cruises, etc.) means hassles, but the people who get through this process the most smoothly and the ones who get rebooked first and get the few available seats out of Dodge are usually the ones who used a travel agent. It’s that simple. First off, you actually have someone to call, versus long lines at banks of airport phones masquerading as “help desks.” But good agencies are constantly monitoring their clients’ flights and they usually know about your problem before you do - and often have a resolution before you even call them. They also have direct access to airline GDS (global distribution system) and don’t have to wait on long phones holds to get ticketing changes made. It’s worth noting that according to the U.S. Department of Transportation, nearly two percent of all domestic flights were canceled in 2019, a significant increase from the previous year and the highest rate since 2014. Midway through the year, MSNBC reported that passengers were being bumped from flights - involuntarily - at a rate three times higher than a year earlier.

I’ve known Anne Scully for years, and as the President of high-powered Virginia-based agency McCabe World Travel, she is perennially ranked one of the world’s best travel agents, sits on advisory boards of major luxury hotel brands and cruise lines, and is an industry legend. She told me that, “Anyone who travels should have the clout of a top travel advisor in their pocket. To start, if the client’s flight is cancelled while they are waiting for take-off they could have us rebook and protect their journey before they depart the plane. No waiting behind 300 other passengers! We can have clients met at the plane door at a large number of airports worldwide and whisked through customs, either on to their tight connecting flight or simply faster to baggage claim - where they are given help with their luggage. Most clients don’t even know that service exists, but they only need to use it once to always request it on their itineraries.”

Expertise: No one knows everything about travel, no matter how deeply they are involved in the industry. I am an expert on ski travel, and I know the ins and outs of every major luxury ski hotel in this country. So, I wouldn’t call a travel agent to help me choose a ski hotel. But I know nothing about the hotel scene in Manilla or Sri Lanka. Some travelers cheat their way around this by sticking to brands like Four Seasons or Ritz-Carlton wherever the go, but in many tourism hotbeds like Fez, Morocco, all the best hotels are ones you have likely never heard of. This is where a travel advisor’s knowledge cannot be beat. And while even the best travel agent can’t know everything either, the good agencies parcel things up, so they have a safari expert, a cruise expert, a honeymoon expert, and so on, and they all work together.

Walter Brownell first escorted 10 guests to Europe in 1887, and 133 years later, Brownell Travel has 150 advisors. Sorry, but there’s no amount of research you can do or number of travel magazines you can read that can match that kind of institutional experience and collective expertise. That’s the knowledge base you want. Let’s go back to the 4.5 million villa hits - any good travel advisor will be able to tell you off the top of their head who you should be renting your villa in Tuscany from - and why. That just saved you eighteen months, and probably got you a better house.

Chad Clark believes travelers should, “Experience the extraordinary, not once in a lifetime, but every time!” and to showcase the knowledge base advisors bring to the table, he created a program he calls “Chad Clark Certified,” personally giving his stamp of approval to special hotels, restaurants, tours and experiences around the world. To date he’s certified nearly 700 different things his clients (or you) can reliably consider doing.

It is important to remember that these advantages are not just for luxury travelers. Good travel advisors do not just know what the best hotel is, they know what the best hotel is for you and your budget and can help you find the right fit. As we will see shortly, they can also save you a lot of money, no matter what style you travel in.

VIP Connections: Whether you are trying to book space at a coveted 8-villa safari lodge in Africa or get a room in a top Paris hotel during Fashion Week, most hoteliers keep emergency inventory and guess who gets it? The travel advisors they have known for years who book a lot of guests and send them a lot of business. It works this way with lots of things in the travel industry, from hard to get dinner reservations to the resort’s best ski instructor to a city’s top art expert as a private museum guide. Anytime there is scarcity, there is no substitute for personal connections, and the best agents have built these over years or decades. Plus we are living in the age of “experiential travel,” and good advisors create one of kind experiences most people would never have imagined in the first place.

“I had a client touring Russia who not only played piano well, but also took lessons from one of the best teachers in New York,” said Anne McCabe. “As a surprise, I arranged for him to visit the apartment of the great Russian composer Nicolai Rimsky Korsakov, and the curator invited him to play the composer’s piano, while his teacher listened over the phone his wife was holding. You cannot create those WOW moments if you do not get to know who your clients are, and what would make their holiday most special.” You also need to know the curator. Try booking that on TripAdvisor.

“This is a key point,” stressed Clark. “Travel advisors provide our clients with access: access to people, places, and experiences that could never be replicated, much less imagined. A great travel advisor has invested time and relationships in creating their ‘black book’ of contacts and relationships, so that when their clients travel, they are treated as a VIPs, not just a credit card number.” In my experience, everyone likes being treated like a VIP.

Seemingly simple things often annoy even the most seasoned travelers, but these irritants can be smoothed out by good advisors. One biggie is having your room ready to check in when arriving in Europe early in the morning after an exhausting overnight flight. I’ve seen lots of travelers, including myself, told to go walk around for hours and come back at two or three in the afternoon, even at the finest hotels. Do you think they tell that to Anne Scully and her peers?

Another one of the most frustrating recurring problems I hear in the industry - even at the top luxury hotels - is a notorious refusal to guarantee connecting rooms in advance for families booking multiple rooms (and paying a lot for them). But when your travel agent books hundreds of room nights with a hotel each year, the GM (or sales manager) will move heaven and earth to give that agent’s client - you - guaranteed connecting rooms. For the same price. Often with a room upgrade. And late check out. And a free food and beverage credit.

But I’m getting ahead of myself.

Extras: When you get more than you expected for the same price, that’s a great deal, and with travel advisors this happens all the time. The cruise industry is a perfect example of very large inventories that fluctuate in supply and demand each week, with a large audience of repeat customers who cruise again and again for years. The cruise lines do not want to lose the loyalty of those customers - or the agents who steer hundreds of them each year to particular brands. Yet it basically costs the line no more to have you stay in a deluxe suite than a basic room if that suite is available, and with the size of today’s ships, it often is. But who gets these upgrades? Advisors. Professionals who specialize in cruises have enormous volume clout and are legendary for routinely getting clients one or two class stateroom upgrades, free shore excursions, onboard credits and all sorts of things - for the same exact price you pay going direct. I would never book a cruise without using a travel advisor - it’s just foolish.

But it’s not just cruises.

“In an age of automation, it may come as a surprise that many of our new clients skew on the more tech-savvy side, and come to SmartFlyer for the first time seeking guidance on their honeymoon,” Michael Holtz, founder of extremely successful global travel agency SmartFlyer told me. “The millennial generation specifically may have seen their parents use a travel advisor, but don’t feel like they need one - until they are deep in the spiral of research. By shifting gears to planning with an expert, they feel liberated from the immense pressure of choosing the ‘best’ resort - because we’re cutting through the noise of all the conflicting opinions they’re seeing online. Our team has actually been to the properties first-hand - not to mention has personal relationships with the General Managers. For example, we just had a couple fly to Canouan, a remote island in the Caribbean that they had no idea even existed before we recommended it. When they arrived at the Mandarin Oriental, the GM double upgraded them thanks to SmartFlyer’s close relationship with the property. At the end of the day, it’s all about personal relationships translating into exceptional experiences for our clients.”

One of the biggest shortcuts to freebies and extras is Virtuoso, a network of top tier travel agencies, most in the luxury realm. While agencies belonging to Virtuoso are independent and free to recommend and book anything they want - and often do because they have strong opinions - the network has specific relationships with over 1,800 travel partners (cruise, tours, airlines and 1,400 individual hotels in 100+ countries) with which it negotiates exclusive (and contractually obligated) benefits. Why are travel suppliers so eager to work with agencies and advisors that belong to Virtuoso (advisors can join by invitation-only based on their track records)? Because last year Virtuoso members booked $26.4 billion in travel for their clients.

So in addition to the extras for personal connections you can get via people like Michael Holtz knowing the GM, anyone who books through a Virtuoso agency gets automatic perks like complimentary daily breakfast, room upgrades, early check-in, late check-out, complimentary airport transfers, spa credits and so on (specifics vary by hotel). According to Virtuoso, just the hotel benefits are valued at an average of over $500 per stay. Complimentary cruise benefits can be even bigger.

But having covered the luxury travel space for years, it seems that virtually every top advisor and agency I come across, the ones my friends, family and colleagues recommend, belongs to Virtuoso, as do all of the agencies mentioned in this piece besides the one in Travel Leaders. I just visited an amazing new luxury hotel in Italy, and they were quick to boast about having been admitted as preferred Virtuoso property - to them it was a mark of quality like earning a Michelin-star.

“The thing I love about Virtuoso is not just the quality of the advisors, but the strength of the entire network and the supplier partners they use around the world,” said travel writer, award-winning broadcaster and author Michael Patrick Shiels. “I decided to do this segment on running with the bulls in Pamplona and I had never been to Spain, so a Virtuoso advisor connected me with Made For Spain and Portugal, a partner ground supplier that does all the behind the scenes magic. They know everyone and totally set up an amazing itinerary and I ran with the bulls. In Italy, Virtuoso has an amazing local company called IC (Italian Connection) Bellagio that is totally wired into all the kinds of local things travelers say they want these days, special experiences, the best restaurants, art tours of private villas. When you ask your Virtuosos agent to plan a trip to Tuscany, it’s not just them, they have all this expert support behind them, down to the micro level. I’ve been all around the world, and before the first time I worked with Virtuoso I didn’t think I needed a travel agent’s help - now I can’t imagine not using one for anything complicated or specialized.”

Air: If you are trying to buy the cheapest round-trip economy ticket from New York to Dallas, even the best advisors probably can’t get it for less than you can buy it online, though you still have to deal with all the pitfalls of the online travel sites and you will lose the safety net advisors provide when things go wrong. But in a couple of other cases, buying your air through an agent can actually save you money, or miles, or both.

One case is when you are buying premium class tickets, Business, First or some of the even higher new classes. I have an extremely tech savvy friend in San Francisco who wanted to fly First class to Hawaii for his honeymoon, and even though he could afford it, he was shocked how much the airlines wanted. I suggested he call McCabe World Travel, and he was mystified how they could purchase the exact same tickets for about two thousand dollars less -each - than the best price he could find online, by calling the airline, or through the American Express Platinum Card travel desk. I don’t care how rich you are, if you can get the same tickets and pocket four thousand dollars that’s a good deal - plus you get all the peace of mind that comes with the advisor’s safety net. Not surprisingly, years later he still uses McCabe for all his travel. Consider this: the agency has three advisors in its air travel department who do nothing else, among its roughly 50 affiliated advisors.

When it comes to using miles, or miles and money, or just paying to fly in pricier premium classes, you might have trouble believing the miracles these specialists can work. As Largay’s Klimak told me, “I was working with a couple last year traveling to Australia and New Zealand for their dream cruise. They wanted to use frequent flyer miles, and I knew that they also had Dubai on their Wanderlist. I was able to change their flights from Business class on Qantas to First Class on Emirates - for half the mileage. We were also able to add a stopover with a wonderful desert and shopping experience in Dubai, checking two destinations off their list for a fraction of the cost.”

I use SmartFlyer for tricky tickets. Despite its name, it is a well-known, full-service luxury travel agency that does everything from safaris to cruises, but where they are better than just about everyone else is creative ticketing. I hear endless complaints from frequent fliers about the difficulty using miles, but I have found that is not the case - if you use a mileage and ticketing expert. I did a story on skiing in Japan, and SmartFlyer was able to get me to Tokyo in Business Class and back in First for $1,500 and 100,000 United miles. This was less than a third of the miles United directly quoted me for the same trip when I called the MileagePlus Elite desk, and I ended up getting more than three times the dollars per mile that most experts value frequent flier miles at.

On another trip recent trip to Bali, SmartFlyer found me flights on Cathay Pacific - one of the world’s best airlines - in Premium Economy to Hong Kong and then the five hour leg to Bali in Business class, for less than Cathy was selling the trip on its site just in Premium Economy the whole way. It just doesn’t seem possible, but it is, real tickets, same airline, better seats, less money. I don’t know how they do it, and frankly I don’t care, but if you know who to call this happens all the time (if you are not a client of SmartFlyer booking your vacation or business trip, they will charge you a fee to do the legwork and find you great deals on premium and mileage tickets, but in almost every case I’ve seen, it still saves you money).

“In terms of value, what we can do is unparalleled to anything clients will find elsewhere,” SmartFlyer’s Holtz told me. “Our negotiated air contracts, along with our in-depth knowledge of the carriers and actual aircraft, means we can advise travelers how to reach their destination at the best possible price and in the most comfortable configuration. Sometimes, this means hundreds of dollars in savings per ticket.” Or more.

Better Trips! At the end of the day this is the bottom line, the big win you get with a good travel advisor. They know more than you do, they are better connected, they have access to benefits you can’t get yourself, and they can match and often beat any prices you find. They plan a better trip and then provide a safety net. Having a top travel agent can make you an instant VIP, certainly will save you time and hassle, and quite possibly money.

Amanda Foshee is an advisor at Brownell Travel, and she summed it up nicely: “What everyone needs these days is more time and less stress, and that’s what we’re here for. Travel advisors take the overwhelming amount of information out there and distill it into the key points that apply to you - the best hotel/destination/tour for your interests, your budget, and your time frame. A client shared that going through all the information online to plan a trip would be a second full-time job for her, and I told her that’s why it’s my full-time job instead!”

Change - continued

The newsroom was dead. Tracy walked into the familiar place that smelt of old carpet, damp walls and looked like an industrial factory. She had always thought that being a journalist would be the same as in the movies. Newsroom stacked with random files on desks and editors screaming at reporters what stories they should cover. Instead, it was always a boring battle. Tracy had to dig deep into the depths of her brain to come up with a story to pitch in the diary meeting every single morning and this is not the life that she wanted for herself. She was 26, living a life that she was not happy with. If she really wanted to, she could change her life in the flash of an eye but here she is walking into a newsroom filled with old and ailing people.

She sat down at her desk which happened to be right in the middle of the newsrooms if all the interns were seated there with the sole purpose to display them to everyone. She got along with her day. She was going to do what she had been doing the past few days, fake doing work and focus on getting her things to go to Korea ready.

3 months later

Tracy awoke to the sun shining into her apartment into the empty spot where Andile would have been sleeping. She was not missing him but was content with the fact that he was now gone. Although he was still messaging her and hounding her, she finally decided she had had enough of the secrets when she found him messaging his ex and lying about being single when in fact, he was living with her.

“He really took me for a fool hey and I forgave him, stupid girl!” She hissed as she got out of bed.

Coffee or tea? Today was going to be a good day, she was finally getting her visa to go to Korea, after the endless hustle of getting those documents ready she had finally put through all her things and waited. Today is the day, the message of confirmation came through and she was about to get her visa and go book her plane ticket. She smiled and hopped out of bed with huge excitement. She opted for a mimosa

“Nothing wrong with a boozy breakfast to celebrate this huge win, right?” She giggled and poured some champagne in a clean glistening flute. She poured some orange juice and tasted her work

“Hmm, perfection!”

She spun on her toes glass in hand and headed to the bath she ran some hot water and added bubble bath just to treat herself,

“Let’s start it off boozy and chilled yeah?”

She opened the cabinet to get some essential oils, she poured some tea tree oil in the water and it smelled divine. She grabbed her phone and called her mom she needed to know how much time she had,

The phone rang,

“Hello?”

“Mom! How are you? Did you sleep well?”

“Someone is in a good mood I see. I slept just fine Tracy. I guess you calling to find out the time and logistics?”

“Yes mommy. I was thinking of taking the train then meeting you in Midrand or Hatfield then we can drive to the consulate together,”

‘Oh yeah the Gautrain. Let’s meet at Midrand, I haven’t seen you in so long I want to have some late lunch and catch up with you.”

“Sure, thing mom that sounds great remember we need to get to the consulate before 1pm!”

“Sure, I will meet you at Midrand at 11am?”

“Sounds like a plan”

“Bye”

“Bye Bye”

She clicked off the call. It was 7:45. She still had time for some me time. She picked up her glass and headed to the bathroom for that much needed soak. As soon as she settled in the bath, she felt like she was on cloud nine. Nothing could possibly go wrong. She connected her phone to her speaker and played Drake’s album “Nothing Was the Same”. She sipped her champagne and shut everything out and just relaxed to her drink and the music.

Tumi paced around in his apartment impatiently. He felt like he needed to speak to Tracy especially considering that Andile was his friend and he kind of knew what was happening. She needed an apology. That girl was a lot of things but the one thing that she was not was someone that you played and didn’t take seriously. She would have held Andile down but he took her for granted. He already admitted his feeling for her to himself a long time ago and yeah of course it is against the bro code to go for a friend’s ex-girlfriend. They weren’t event really friends anymore they had a fallout a couple of weeks ago and stopped talking to each other. Maybe it was messed up that he was trying to get close to this girl now but he couldn’t help it. He wanted to be close to her as selfish as it sounded. He grabbed his jacket, wallet and keys and walked out

“Here we go,”

She lived upstairs in room 410. He decided to take the fire escape. Smiling while climbing thinking of all the fond memories he had with her in the building drinking and just having fun. Somehow things between them were always fun and genuine. His feelings for Tracy are wrong considering who she is and that she is the ex-girlfriend of someone he considers a brother but he just cannot help himself. His heart starts to pound as he reaches her door. He knocks and hears no answer. Sometimes she would have earphones in and would not be able to hear him but he would walk in and she wouldn’t mind so he decided to let himself in. He was greeted by a nice calming scent that smelt like flowers and trees and earth. It smells like one of those self-care body washes one of his ex-girlfriends had and he figured she must have just taken a shower. He calls out to her.

Tracy sits upright in a flash to hear a voice calling her name in the living room her heart is beating in her ears and she can barely hear anything. Who in the hell could just walk into her house? He remembered that she Would let Tumi do that all the time

“Tumi?” she called out nervously

“Yeah, it’s me sorry to scare you I didn’t know you were busy this morning,”

She sighs with huge relief as she hears his familiar voice.

“That’s all right, pour yourself something to drink,”

“Is it not a bit too early to be drinking?”

“Whose mouth am I using? Mine. So, I will drink whenever it is that I please,” she said as she wrapped herself in a white gown and sipped her drink.

She stepped out and Tumi’s heart started beating faster. She looks so good like this, relaxed and not puffy eyed like the last time he saw her. She was heartbroken and could not find Andile anywhere because he had just walked out. He had to lie to her and say he didn’t know where he was when we were hiding in his apartment. Tumi thought about what exactly he would be apologizing for if he decided to do so? The lies? The deception? The guilt by association?

He sat down in the living room waiting for Tracy who stepped out of the hall way in a summer dress and her braids hanging down her back. She had not out any make-up on but she was putting on some sunscreen on her arms

“What brings you all the way up here,’ She joked

“Well, I am not quite sure myself. I guess I was bored and decided to come and bother you if you not too busy that is,’

“For you? I always have time,” She giggled

She motioned towards his empty glass for a refill and he nodded,

“You know I am going to the Korean consulate today with mom to get my visa, hence the champagne”

“Oh really? You should have told me I would have prepared a nice gift for you too!”

“Agh come on Tumi”

She brushed a braid out of her face and smiled. Tumi always knew what to say and what to do to make her feel better whenever she felt like things were not going her way. They spent the next two hours planning all the things she would do once she got to Korea they had not even realized as they sat on her white carpeted floor that they had gotten really close to each other and were whispering and giggling like tow teenagers who have sneaked off to come and see their lover. Tumi lifted his hand and gently laid the tips of his fingers on her arm. The touch as small as it was sent a fire burning inside Tracy. She wanted him to hold her in his arms and just stay there. Tracy could tell as she spoke that Tumi was focused on her lips rather than listening to what she was saying.

“Tracy, I am really sorry about the way things turned out between you and..” his voice trailed off and he looked down

“You are not responsible for his actions. He didn’t know what he had and he started acting out and as a result he lost everything that we worked for,” she said becoming more determined

“he could have chosen to be honest and a man about what he did but he continued to lie to me.” She paused

“Can we talk about something else please”

He nodded and ran his fingers up her shoulder to the base of her neck. He cups her head in his hand and leaned closer towards Tracy. Tracy was too shocked to even move. The fingers on her arm and neck and now pulling her closer were sending and electrifying feeling all over her body.

When his lips met hers, he reminds was cleared of all thought. She forgot about everything else, the visa, the problems she had faced, her ex. It was just her and Tumi. He pressed his soft lips firmly against hers and gently pushed his tongue meeting hers. She exploded with pleasure and leaned closer into Tumi who fully embraced her and pulled her closer to him. He lifted Tracy onto his lap and closer to his chest. The warm feeling of his body against hers felt safe and sensual, she felt protected and safe. She felt wanted and desired and most of all she wanted him as much if not more than he wanted her.

Tumi pulled Tracy closer, his kisses more wanting and stronger. He wanted he right in that moment. He cupped her breast with his left hand and balanced her body with his palm under her holding him close to his chest. She wrapped her small arms around his neck, she may have been petite but her grip was a strong one that pleasantly surprised him. She could take more than what people think. He released her lips and tilted his head down to gently kiss her temple. Tracy shivered in pleasure and unintentionally let out a soft moan in his hear. The sound of her enjoying him made his hunger for her even stronger.

He pulled away from her and she looked up at him surprised expecting him to regret the passionate moment they just shared. But instead, she was met with pleading eyes from Tumi. Pleading with her to have mercy on him and stop a second. She wanted so bad to ignore this because behind those eyes she saw a glimpse of man that was ready to devour her and he was trying his best not to take advantage of her. She conceded and shifted off of him

“This is such a bad idea Tumi,”She lied to herself

“I can agree with you on that one but Tracy, you know how I have always felt about you. I think you are an amazing person,”

“But what we are doing is wrong. You are my ex’s friend. It is wrong”

Tumi walks up to Tracy and gently places his hand on the base of her back.

“Yeah, maybe it is wrong but why does it feel so right to have you so close to me Tracy?’

He leans forward and without even thinking about it, Tracy slowly lifts herself on her toes and leans in to kiss him. Their lips meet in an explosion of tension, lust, want and desire. Tracy gives in to the feelings and he feels her melt into him and completely give into him He doesn’t want her to just see him a rebound though. He wants her to continue to want him the way that she does forever. He wants her to belong only to him.

Tumi pulls away. Confused by the sudden change Tracy asks

“What?”

He gently smiles down at her, the smile that could melt any girls’ heart. He gently kisses her forehead

“Babe please, let’s slow down…you have to get ready to leave.”

Tracy is brought back to her senses and realizes she may have let the bubbles go to her head too much but she doesn’t regret anything that has happened with Tumi.

Tracy makes her way to her bedroom in her towel. She stifled a giggle as she imagined what could have happened. She decided to throw on jeans and a white T shirt and some white air force 1s. You can never go wrong with a simple look like that. She puts on some perfume and steps out of the room. Tumi is smoking on the balcony. She joins him and they laugh and talk about the good times. Andile gone and forgotten.

I've always been interested in working in Japan through the JET program but I'm interested in hearing your experience with working in Japan and the reasons you work there.

STORY TIME!

I’ve always been interested in Japanese culture. The first time I watched Sailor Moon, I was completely enthralled. When I found out it was a type of animation from this little island across the world, I was hooked. It’s always been one of my childhood dreams to come here, whether to live here or for a visit, it didn’t matter. One way or another, I wanted to set foot upon Japanese soil, even if it was just to cross something off my bucket list.

So I found out, very early on in my college career (through a Skype call with a friend of my Japanese professor during class freshman year), that teaching English in Japan was a thing that I could do without being fluent in Japanese/a certified teacher. And since I always knew I wanted to be an author, but wasn’t enthused about the thought of slaving away at some job I wasn’t passionate about until I finished a book, once I figured out this was A Thing?

“HELL YEAH SIGN ME THE FUCK UP”

I had to wait until my senior year to apply, naturally. XP My first choice was the JET program, because it was the most well-known, and I read nothing but good things about it. I sent in my application, and checked my e-mail OBSESSIVELY, waiting for a response.

I didn’t even clear the first cut. OTL

Took time to be sad about it. My friends were very sympathetic (they even bought me chocolate to help cheer me up that night, ha ha~) Once I was done being sad, I picked myself back up and threw myself back into the search. If the JET program didn’t want to hire me, then it was their loss. But now I was Determined: I was GETTING to Japan one way or another, and this one rejection wasn’t about to stop me.

And then, after signing up for several sites which granted jobs to gaikokujin and OBSESSIVE searching, I found my company: Interac. I read up on it, did my research. They didn’t pay as well as JET supposedly does, but still, it was a teaching job in Japan. Repeated the process: sent in my application and waited, on pins and needles now, because I was going to be graduating soon and if I didn’t have a plan, I felt like I’d be screwed.

I heard back VERY quickly from Interac. We did the phone interview, I presented myself as professionally as I could, and then we were done.

Very soon after THAT, I received an e-mail for a SECOND INTERVIEW!!!!

The only difficulty was that the interview was being held in D.C., which is near where my folks live….but it was a week before my graduation from my college in North Carolina. ^^; THAT was an interesting weekend: I had to fly back to Maryland early on Friday, prepare for the interview AND do a mock lesson that night, drive to D.C. Saturday and do said interview/mock lesson, and then fly back to North Carolina on Sunday to graduate a week later. Whew!

But yeah, that happened, I graduated and got my degree in English Writing, then went back home to CHILL for a bit as I waited for a response.

We had gone to Texas to watch my brother’s ceremony for completing his basic training (we’re a military family, hahaha~) when I got the e-mail. Now, we were there for my brother, so I didn’t wanna kick up a fuss, but my dad saw me grinning like an idiot and asked what was up. I passed him my phone and let him read the e-mail, bouncing in my seat. Naturally, my mom and grandma had to know what was up too, so, as quietly as I could (I get loud when I’m excited), I said, “I got the job…!”

Queue mini-celebration before the ceremony started, but needless to say, I was deliriously excited~

Once we returned to Maryland, I threw myself into the next step: paperwork, paperwork, PAPERWORK. Luckily for me, Interac works to take care of most of the big stuff: securing an apartment, picking the schools you work in, stuff like that. But before I could get there, I had to apply for a working visa first. That required photos being taken and several trips to D.C., but I got it did. There was a bunch of other stuff involved too, if I recall correctly, but the visa was the one big thing I remember.

Next, I had to find a job in order to pay for my plane ticket/have start-up money as soon as I headed over there, because I wouldn’t be paid until about two months in (this could be different for JET; I never found out, so I’m just sticking to telling you my experiences, ha ha~). I remember they gave me two options: to start training in August so I would be prepared for September, or to come in March to be prepared for April, when the school year officially started. It was June when these options were presented to me, and since I didn’t have anywhere NEAR the funds I needed, I chose the latter and took a cashier job to build up my funds/pay student loans.

My company worked with me throughout the months, updating me on things like what I would need to bring and where exactly in Japan I would be placed. They made sure to check that I would be comfortable in my placement and if I had any questions while working through the processing of the paperwork I had to send them, so I never felt like I was at a standstill with them, which was nice~

And then, at long, LONG last…it was time for me to go. I booked my plane ticket a month in advance, my grandmother (who was heartbroken that I was leaving) was gracious enough to throw me a going-away party, and my family saw me off at the airport. I was anxious that the sudden SNOW IN APRIL would delay my flight, but things went off without a hitch. (Flight delay due to snow happened to me just this past winter, though; that super sucked. Oh, important advice: MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHO’S OPERATING THE FLIGHT. It might say one airline, but it could really be operated by another airline altogether. Which reminds me: DON’T FLY UNITED. WORST AIRLINE TO FLY OVERSEAS ON.)

And then…I was here.

Been here for a while; going into my third year with my elementary school, and the four kindergartens I teach at. Some days are harder than others, but the kids are really cute, and I’ve found that if I try my best, they’re usually willing to reciprocate. And it makes my heart swell when they get excited to eat lunch with me, even if they ask some inappropriate questions (the amount of times I’ve been asked if I’m married/have a boyfriend…)

What I want to say, though, before I get further lost in my rambling, is that everyone’s experience is different. Some people love it here; some people leave half-way through their contract because they can’t stand it. It all depends on how well you can adapt. The language barrier sucks sometimes, and you feel “other” sometimes when the Japanese folk stare…but overall, I find it a pleasant place to live. My coworkers are nice, my town is small and convenient, and I found that it very quickly became home for me. I don’t know what everyone thinks when they picture Japan, but to me, it’s just where I live. The people just happen to speak Japanese here. :P

If you’re seriously considering living here, the truth is that, in some ways, you will be inconvenienced, compared to what you’re probably used to. The people at the convenience store ask you a question you can’t understand, the NHK man comes knocking at your door demanding payment for a service you don’t use, TALKING CARS AT 11 PM. But there’s a lot of good about it, too, so much that it would make this answer waaaaaaay longer than it already is.

But I think the most important question, Nonny, is this: how bad do you want it?

#reyna rants #personal #SHIT THIS GOT WAY TOO LONG SORRY #I spent so much time answering this that it's time for class oops! ^^;#I hope this helped a little though Nonny!

Business Trip to China - Advice

A couple of us from team BabyHub travelled to China to visit our factory, meet buyers and exhibit at the NECC in China

Our destination was Shanghai, on the east coast of China, and the surrounding provinces.

Preparation for travel to China includes:

Research: Up to date information https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/china

Organise your visa. We very carefully checked the requirements and did these ourselves by post, rather than pay a visa arrangement service. They cost £175 each. You will need a letter of invitation from a Chinese business which must be written in a certain way. You can check this on visaforchina Your passport must have 6 months plus remaining. You will need photos, photocopies of your passports, copies of the invitation letter, forms to fill out (from visaforchina) a signed declaration, stamped addressed return Royal Mail envelopes and payment details page. All this must be sent with your passport by registered Royal Mail post to one of the three UK centres. We chose Edinburgh as it had the shortest delay. Allow at least 6 weeks. As a resident of the UK or British islands you will get a 2 year visa.

Download WeChat to your phone. This is the Chinese communication app

WeChat is still in development for use outside China but worth trying as EVERYONE uses it for EVERYTHING in China

Get a short translation into Mandarin Chinese of the main points of your product/business

Have flyers/business cards made which will ideally have one side in English and one side in Chinese including your Chinese paragraph/sentence and if possible, your WeChat QR code

If you use Gmail, get another email address! Generally people in China cannot easily access Gmail, Facebook etc. They can use Yahoo, so we used a Yahoo email address

Arrange meetings – best to allow some time following arrival to catch up on sleep. Organise for a translator/your agent to be at meetings

Organise your flights. If you’re taking connecting flights to a major airport, make sure your flights are “through travel” Then your luggage goes all the way through and if there are delays, you’ll be sent on the next available flight. This is one time when I didn’t arrange my flights online but went face to face with a travel agent

Organise accommodation Tripadvisor link Booking.com link We can recommend the Sofitel Shanghai Hongqiao for the NECC

Get some Yuan. Although it’s easy to get yuan using a debit card in cash machines, it’s handy to have some for your first taxi from the airport

Print out some notes showing your hotel’s full address in Chinese to show to taxi drivers

Check the weather forecast – Shanghai has 8 months of hot summer and when we went every day was 40 degrees

Your flight:

We travelled by Emirates which was very good, organized by British Airways. This was my first time travelling long haul. My tips include:

Wear clothes you can sleep in. Slip on shoes, casual exercise type clothes and layers.

Cabin baggage should include a main bag with your essentials for the trip – in case your hold luggage gets lost. This bag can be stowed in the overhead lockers. Then take another bag – laptop bag/shopper, which includes the things you might want on the plane – a book, reading glasses, iPad, phone, charger, tissues, small cosmetics, toothpaste, deodorant in a clear plastic bag, painkillers, passport and boarding passes.

Try to get an aisle seat. If you’re blocked in by someone who’s taken medication to sleep through the flight it’s bloody difficult to move them (as we discovered on the first leg) and you’ll need to get up to use the toilet/walk about

If you’re travelling with small children, you can put up the elbow rests and stretch out across the seats (if you can get the kids to go to sleep!) and lay the kids on top.

Be prepared for hole in the floor toilets at stopover airports

While in China:

On arrival at the airport, don’t spend ages in a queue of Chinese people waiting to go through customs. There will be a separate place for foreigners and you will have to look for the signs. Don’t worry if you can’t see them – an official will come and tell you but don’t spend 15 minutes in the wrong queue as we did!

You will need to present your details on an arrival card which you will have filled in on the plane. Keep back the part for departure for when you return (although there are spare cards on the return at the airport in case you have lost it)

Only use registered taxis. At the airport you may be approached by people offering to drive you to your hotel, but look for the taxi rank and queue there instead

Your hotel can summon taxis for you and give you a note with the name of your destination in Chinese

Be prepared for lots of unfinished building development. For example, although our hotel was close to the NECC it was not possible to walk there. There was as yet no way for a pedestrian to cross the river and the only access between the two was motorway flyover.

Travel by bullet train if going far – our experience was of spotlessly clean, comfortable trains on time. I had bought the train tickets on Ctrip, a few weeks before travelling. The first class seats get fully booked, so allow a few weeks if possible. You will be emailed a code, so take the print out to the train station for them to give you the tickets. Then you’ll have to queue for your platform. There was someone selling snacks on our train – vacuum packed fish and meat snacks. We chose the popcorn!

Be prepared for scary road trips. Expect traffic jams around the cities and people will drive on any side of the road in the provinces. When out walking you must look out for cars, scooters and bikes. It’s not unusual for them to go through red lights.

In some parts of China you may be the only Westerner around. Don’t be surprised if people stare and children ask to take selfies with you.

Be very polite, accept offerings with both hands, present your card with both hands

Ask for help! Once when lost we asked a local man for help. He drove us to our hotel! People called taxis for us.

Enjoy your trip!

When in Hong Kong

It was just last year when we decided to get ourselves a passport because one of my travel goals for 2017 is to visit a foreign country. Hong Kong is not a bad idea at all. It is actually one of the great destination for a first out-of-the-country trip.

Since many of my friends are asking me info about this travel, I will do my best to break down everything. To be honest, I was not able to keep track of everything. Just a piece of advice, don’t ever travel here without an itinerary especially if it’s your first time.

We got our plane tickets last February with Cebu Pac for a cheaper price. Thanks to piso fare, we got our ticket for 5,500php RT/pax. If you are lucky, you can even get it for a cheaper price. I know a friend who booked it for just 3,000php RT. You just need to be very patient because it’s very challenging to booked discounted tickets.

Day 1. Airport + Olympic

June 12, 2017

Flight to HK in the afternoon. Paid travel tax (1620.00php/pax) and went to immigration for interview. Make sure to print your itinerary (Plane and Hotel) because immigration officers are very strict. If you don’t have a Visa/Master card, make sure to have enough cash before entering your gates because you can’t go outside anymore after the immigration and security check. Plus you can’t use a normal ATM to withdraw cash in HK.

Our flight is at 4:30 PM. Travel time to HK is about 2 and ½ hours.

We reach the destination at around 7:00 PM. It’s raining and the weather is not very good. June is supposed to be the summer in HK. By the way, we are two couples travelling. My best friend have a cousin who works in HK and his cousin offered his apartment for our first 2 nights stay. Yes, we save a lot on that. :D

Nothing much on this day since we arrive late in HK. We were just amaze how big the airport is. It can actually be part of your itinerary. HAHA. They have trains inside the airport just to transfer passengers on their respective gates. So imagine how big the airport is.

The first thing we did at the airport is exchange our currencies. We exchange our PHP to HKD and during that time, exchange rate is 1 HKD = 7.8 PHP.

To be honest, I really don’t know what’s going to happen if we travel without knowing someone in HK. We’re just lucky because my best friend offered his cousin’s apartment. There is a free wifi in HK airport and you will be surprise because it’s faster than your office internet connection. We bought 1 simcard at 7-11 in HK airport for 88HKD to contact his cousin on his mobile phone.

Our apartment for first 2 nights is located near OLYMPIC station, but they said that the best location to book a hotel is in TSIM TSA TSUI since it’s very near to tourist attractions. You can book a travelers budget room in booking websites like Airbnb or Booking.com for around 1,800php to 4,000php per night.

They have many train lines in HK and they call it MTR. Here in the PH, we only have 3 train lines (Lrt 1&2, and MRT). Train map is complicated at first but you will get used to it. From the airport, they have the Airport Express Train and the first thing you need to know is to what train station is your Hotel more accessible. You will need to transfer trains until you reach your destination. Just imagine yourself in PH, you will need to transfer from LRT 1 to LRT 2 or MRT depending on your destination.

You can ask people around but it’s really hard to get someone who can understand and speak English when you are already outside the airport. For what I remember, we got our Train Tickets from the airport to our destination for roughly around 180HKD for 4 tickets and that is with a Travelers discount. Always tell the ticket facilitator that you’re travelling as a group to get a discount.

You can also get an Octopus Card but we decided not to since we really don’t have plans of roaming around HK that much since our original plan is to visit Macau and Disneyland. And we spoke to a Chinese guy and he said that the only difference of having the octopus card is that you don’t have to fall in line anymore. It is just like a beep card here in PH but it’s definitely your option to get one.

We arrive at the apartment at around 11pm. We rest for a bit and went outside to buy food. We found a Mcdo nearby and prices is 40 HKD to 100 HKD per meal. There are also a lot of 7-11 around the area.

Before that, we receive a news that there is a typhoon in HK during that day. We are so worried because we heard that Disneyland might not be operational for the next days. I will cry if that’s gonna happen.

Day 2. Unplanned City Tour

June 13, 2017

We are supposed to go to Disneyland on this day, but the weather is that good. We were also told that Disneyland will be operating late on that day (which is 1pm) due to the weather. We decided to go to Macau but ferries were also cancelled on that day. In the end, we decided to roam around the city.

We went to Mongkok which is just 10-15 minutes away from the apartment. We don’t have plans of shopping that day since we want to do it on our last day.

We didn’t stay that long in Mongkok since our original destination that day is The Peak Tram.

We actually lost our way going to The Peak Tram. HAHA. It was not really planned at all. It was a long exhausting walk but we did enjoyed it because at least we were able to roam around the city with our feet.

The Peak Tram

It’s a great experience to ride on this tram. It’s a train up to the mountain which is almost 90 degrees.

Ticket is 90HKD RT. I’m not very sure if what’s the way down if you’re not going to purchase an RT Ticket.

The tram itself is a cool experience because I cannot imagine that there is a train going up the mountain. If it is a sunny day, you can see the view of the whole Hong kong city because this is the highest point of HK.

Escalator etiquette: Stand right, Walk left!

On our first day, you can observe that HK is such a busy city. There are a lot of tall building everywhere and they don’t have houses like here in PH. People live in a condo unit.

There are many other places to visit in HK but we decided to go back to our apartment to get some rest. It was a long day for us and we enjoyed roaming around and experiencing the city. This day is not really planned at all so we are not really expecting to visit all the tourist attraction.

Day 3. Disneyland!

June 14, 2017

This is the probably the most awaited part of our trip. Weather is not that bad anymore and the sun is up already. Disneyland is also back to its normal operating hour. Disneyland ticket is 589HKD.

The moment we entered the theme park, it was already a surreal experience. I still can’t believe I was here.

Picture with Mickey

I can’t believe my eyes!

Sleeping Beauty Castle

Wish I can live here!

Toy Story Playland <3

Disney in the stars Firework. This is my favorite part of my Disneyland experience. It was really a dream come true and a day full of magical experience. I cannot explain in words how happy I am on that day.

Disneyland is truly the happiest place on earth. It was one of the best day of my life. It was really hard to leave the place. I really had so much fun on this day.

Day 4. Shopping at Mongkok Ladies Market

June 15, 2017

This is our last day in Hong Kong. It was a good sunny day and feeling a bit emotional because I don’t want to go home yet and I feel like there are many more places to explore in HK.

By the way, after our Disneyland trip last night, we went back to the apartment to get our bags and went to Yau Ma Te via Taxi wherein our Hotel for our last night is located. Taxi is just 60-70HKD for places that is 10-15 minutes away.

We booked our hotel through booking.com for 1800php (tax included). It is a small room (double bed) with bathroom and hot shower. Small but a very clean room, not too bad for just a 1 night stay and for it’s price.

We had our breakfast at a McDonald nearby and check out at the hotel at 11am. We went straight to Ladies Market to go shopping before going to airport.

Ladies Market is a happy place for people who loves shopping, especially if you love branded things. The price is cheap compared to the mall price in your home country.

Here is where we bought our pasalubongs. You should also apply your good bargaining skills. I bought fridge magnets here with selling price of 20HKD but I got it for 8HKD.

Our flight is at 7pm but we decided to go to the airport at around 3:30pm. We do not want to go home yet but it’s going to be a big problem if we missed our flight.

Overall, my very first trip out of the country turns out to be one of the best trip I had. Three nights in Hong Kong is not enough to explore the city but it was really a great experience. I wish I can do more trips like this.

‘To know and not to act is not to know.’ - Wang Yangmin

I’ll try not to repeat myself. I forced myself asleep as soon as I sat down on the plane to China Wednesday night, to banish the pulsing headache that was making me retch, and when I woke up we were about to land and it was 3 p.m. the next day. I was meant to be going to Tianjin, but that’s not where we landed. It turned out I had to transfer. It wasn’t specified during the booking process, it didn’t say on the ticket, the scarlet-nailed thick-as-a-pig-shit fake-tan bitch who checked me in at Gatwick didn’t tell me, and the stewardesses didn’t know whether I had to collect my luggage and re-check-in. It was then that I met a 21 year-old Chinese girl who’d been in London for a month and whose name I couldn’t pronounce, also bound for Tianjin, and she sorted out everything. Before our next flight she spent 3 hours teaching me Chinese. Explaining the 3 characters that comprise ‘airport terminal’ took about twenty minutes in itself. Why was I learning about arable farming in school instead of this? Out on the runway, the dusk was rose and dust, the land flat past the mind’s eye. When I got to Tianjin it was 9 p.m. and I had a sleepless 11 hour wait in the deserted airport without food. I read and thought and watched the night disappear hour by hour. China is a scary place and no one ever talks about it. Three times I had to stand around and wait whilst they called the airline to check I was really traveling on to Korea. Mate, why would I be trying to sneak into your shithole country? When I landed at Incheon, it was approaching midday on Friday and the sky was powder blue.

One of those big luxury purple buses took me back to Bundang - Jeongja specifically, right on the river, an affluent area I’d rarely frequented in the past. Sarah was waiting at the bus stop, a merry and porky South Carolinian in her early thirties who’d been responsible for hiring me. She took me to our nearby apartment complex. My room was on the 10th and top floor, freezing from vacancy but decent - wouldn’t have mattered much anyway, for the mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven. She let me stay in her cramped place all day sucking up wifi, watching Netflix and eating junk until showing up again at 8 with her 10 month-old baby and her husband, Tom, who was from Taunton. They’d actually both been to Portishead last year to get fingerprints done for visa applications at the Police HQ. Tom spent an hour telling me about his trip to North Korea a few years back and I spent an hour asking him questions relating to it. That’s my next destination, without a doubt, one hundred percent (to visit, not to live). Sarah stuffed an air-mattress, blankets, and a a plastic basket full of cutlery, detergent, and household cleaning products into my arms, and I went up to bed.

The next day I had burgers with them and Anthony, a giant body-building black guy (coworker, just like Tom and Sarah) who’d thrown his back out deadlifting stupidly heavy weights and could barely walk. If anyone had any beef with him, then was the time to strike. All three of them spoke less Korean than Chris, who’s been here three times for an aggregate total of about a month, which disgusted me, but they were all so funny and friendly and interesting and I was thinking, Don’t give me more grey areas, life, please. Their baby was eating macaroni cheese; the sight was revolting and cut down the half of my appetite that the jetlag hadn’t.

After lunch, in a fugue state from that very same horrendous jetlag, I walked down the river to Seohyeon, where the language exchange centre I first learned Korean at is, for one of my six goals this year is to sort my Korean out by studying with a man. The centre was beset by gloom what with all its East-facing windows, and empty but for one Korean man in his twenties sat studying alone. He introduced himself as Tony, and said that he was also looking for a language exchange partner. Oh serendipity, you little cunt, only showing up when you’re not prayed for, like football miracles and cool funny women with eyes so pretty I could kill myself. Just one thing: Don’t fuck me, Tony; don’t you ever try to fuck me, I successfully resisted the urge to say.

I don’t remember how I spent the Sunday, but all of last week I had training, which meant sitting in on Sarah’s classes and teaching parts of them. All you have to do is follow the syllabus, standing beside the interactive screen, having the children perform videos in front of a separate green screen at the culmination of each chapter (weekly or fortnightly). The marking is time consuming but effortless. I met the boss, Minnie, a scrawny women presumably named after her round protruding ears, who had that strange empty affability that suits labour camp leaders just as well as it does businessmen. I ended up going to immigration three times in five days, a nauseating Eastern Blocesque abomination 90 minutes away on the subway staffed by utter utter cunts (I know I say cunt too much, but if there ever were a bunch of cunts, it’s at Omogkyo immigration) thanks to her fuck ups, first not booking an appointment, and secondly booking the wrong one. It became apparent that Sarah was the actual boss, had hired me, was training me, had worked in other academies connected to this in China, Japan, and Malaysia, spoke to Minnie with the freedom of a Shakespearean Fool. For instance, Minnie came into the room and asked Sarah to finish some reports by the end of the day. Sarah replied, ‘Nah I don’t think I’ll be doing that.’ Minnie’s face went blank with seething consternation for a good two seconds before she clocked that Sarah was joking, at which point Sarah broke into her Southern cackle.

A man came with a bed and constructed it for me; a man came with wifi and installed it for me. I’m borrowing a bike off of Anthony for six weeks until the girl he’s already sold it to comes back to Korea. I bought a TV in order to use my Mac from an American girl for thirty dollars thanks to a Facebook group called Bundang Buy and Sell, which I’d never been able to use before, as I’ve never technically lived in Bundang. She’d told me to meet her at Seohyeon station, and that she might be a bit late. She was an hour late. Her apartment was 800 or so yards from the station. The TV was huge and weighed about five kilos, the transformer I needed in order to use it that she hadn’t mentioned weighed about ten. Encumbered to an infuriating degree, I waddled back to the station like a gullible cunt, sweating through my jacket and swearing through my teeth a serpentine hiss of fuck, fuck . . for fuck’s sake … for the love of fucking Christ. Why? Why? What did I expect for thirty dollars. However, her apartment was small and filthy, and I felt staggeringly fortunate by comparison, and not only because the attractive woman in the apartment across from me walks around naked every morning with the shades drawn up. I noticed by chance, but what am I supposed to do now that I’ve noticed, not look? Come now. She must know what she’s doing. She must know.

Got shouted to halt by a policeman who caught me jaywalking. I was so annoyed at Korea having adopted the stupidest of American offences that when he came up to me I belligerently said, ‘What?’ He pointed to the traffic light and said, ‘What colour is that?’ like a patronising school teacher with a hard-on for authority. ‘Red.’ ‘So don’t cross.’ ‘But I’m late.’ ‘Don’t be late.’ Yes sir, sorry sir. Next time I’ll make sure you’re not looking, sir.

I met Tony last weekend for our first language exchange session - an hour of Korean, an hour of English. His English is already fluent so there isn’t a lot I can do except help him to sound more natural. He’s been going to the language exchange centre for 4 years and somehow we’d never met, though as it happens my friend Brian who’s back in America right now knows him. He’d helped Brian get a suit fitted last year. I told Tony that Brian had described him as a ‘playa’, at which point he held up his left hand to show me an engagement ring. I asked him why he’d stopped ‘playing’ and he told me that it was because he’d met a girl who likes to get up early and exercise every day. I thought, Jesus Christ, yeh, that’ll do it. So he’s two days older than me, already engaged, has some lucrative job to do with clinical trials in Gangnam, and dresses immaculately as a gay - in short, puts me to shame, even though that’s not the life for me. He confessed that actually he thought I might be gay, seeing as when I first met him I’d specified I wanted to study with a man. It hadn’t even crossed my mind. I said, ‘But even if I were, why would I have presumed that you were gay too?’ He said, ‘Good point.’ With regard to my Korean ability, he thought it was really ok, better by a mile than most foreigners he’d met, but said that lots of bad habits have been allowed to get engrained from studying by myself for so long. As a consequence, we spend most of the time working on my pronunciation and the cadence of my speech, which is a horribly humbling process but only because its happening three years later than it should have.

My confidence is being boosted, on the other hand, by all the things I have to do alone, not having a girlfriend to thoroughly administrate my life anymore. I had to go into the phone shop and explain my situation and get my phone reconnected; I had to instruct the moron wifi installation guy on where to install it in the room and why; I had to go back to my old climbing gym today and rejoin as a member. They remembered me and asked where my girlfriend was. I explained that we’d broken up before traveling. They recognised me as a man no longer suffering GBH of the ear’ole and it seemed like we could have a fresh start, having never really been in the mood to make friends with them before. On top of all this, my ego was tested at the hagwon when I was advised by Sarah to pretend not to speak any Korean, because if Minnie cottoned on to me being even halfway decent, she’d try to make me do phone conferences with the mums.

Korean tutor - found; climbing gym - rejoined; hapkido - impossible, at least for the time being, since Master Kim no longer teaches past 9 p.m.; football - found and joined a team of ex-pats and Koreans that trains 25 minutes south of me on the Bundang subway line. My stint in Korea was put in perspective when I found out the ginger guy from Sheffield who’s captain and his Irish best mate have lived here for 9 years and one of them’s got a car. Considering I’ve not played with anything close to regularity since my teens, and laden with clunky running shoes, training went alright. Out of the twelve there, I’d say I was probably the fourth best overall. Twenty people showed up to the first game this weekend, though the captain told me that’ll fast shrink down to the low teens. Half the starting lineup are Korean, and none of them were at training in the week, nor apparently ever come. I think it showed, but the other team were so shit we won 5-0 anyway. I was quite abysmal for the duration of my 30 minute runout in borrowed boots at left wing forward, but I think I’ll soon shake the rustiness off. I also think there’s a place up for grabs in the midfield trio alongside the reliable captain and this short fat Korean guy who no one forces to lose weight or stop smoking cigarettes at half time because he’s got the first touch, vision, and intelligence of Zinedine Zidane.

Working on my novel and a sub 1 hour 20 half marathon - these pursuits are reserved for the mornings, my droogies. I’m getting up as early as I can and staring at the naked Korean woman for as short a time as possible, and then I get cracking. With all my stress and resentment channeled into my job, which really isn’t bad (one class was a nightmare, conducted by four wild rude arrogant boys, but Anthony came to my rescue, having suffered at their hands during his first month a few months back. I was to stare at the rudest one for as long as it took for him to stop grinning and mouthing off and eventually cry, and that would break all four of them. ‘You’ve gotta nip this in the bud now, man, or you’ll be suffering for a year,’ Anthony said. God was he right. From this day forward, I will be someone who nips things in the bud.), the hopelessness, depression, regret, and lack of appetite that have marked my last twelve months or so is really starting to drain. The sky is frequently blue and the food is oh so tasty, but that can’t be presumed to be enough. To keep them away, I’ve written five rules on five post-it notes and stuck them to my fridge:

1: Do not concern yourself with that which you cannot change and/or does not matter.

2: Exercise every day.

3: Write for at least two hours every day; read for at least one.

4: Do not dwell on regret. If you learned from it, then that’s enough.

5: Do your best to make that which is not enjoyable as enjoyable as possible.

I look at them every morning. This might be considered a pretty cliched thing to do, but then again one of the important points David Foster Wallace was making with his titanic Infinite Jest is that Postmodernism has a lot of orphans to answer for, that its irony and chaos and catatonic realism are redundant, that saying, ‘Oh how banal,’ to anything remotely sentimental or ‘cliched’ in an emotional sense no longer gets us anywhere and perhaps never it. That’s why I eventually decided to also affix on post-it notes to the wall by my bed the story of the two wolves:

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. ‘A fight is going on inside me,’ he said to the boy. ‘It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.’ He continued, ‘The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.’

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, ‘Which wolf will win?’

The old Cherokee simply replied, ‘The one you feed.’

If you’re wondering why this blog is called Clemency for the Heathen, it comes from one of my favourite speeches in all literature, delivered by the Judge to the kid in Blood Meridian: ‘There’s a flawed place in the fabric of your heart. Do you think I could not know? You alone were mutinous. You alone reserved in your soul some corner of clemency for the heathen.’ The more I think about this book, the higher the regard I hold it in. It’s up there with the best of the best of the best, sir, with honours. The heathen in question are threefold, as far as I can surmise, but what’s most amazing is that to my mind the line could be levelled at any human being (you have to read Blood Meridian, have to have to fucking have to). Anyway, Clemency for the Heathen has been the title of the novel I’m completely rewriting ever since luscious Nicaragua.

Bad Luck Happens in... 65s if You’re Me.

I’m going to tell you a little a story. To be frank, it’ll probably definitely be long because it’s a nightmare and nightmares are never short. Only this isn’t just a nightmare, this is a true story; my true story of traveling from NY to Hefei after my home leave.

The date was June 26th... or 27th, because when you’re time traveling, details like that get hazy. My lovely friend dropped me off at the tiny Elmira airport and I had no issues checking in. I did internally begin losing my shit when the couple next to me was asked if they’d be willing to give up their seats due to them overbooking the flight by two. *Cue the anxiety* .... I mean we’ve all seen the dragging video by now. Save me.

We boarded in Elmira on time, I skipped the coffee and went for the complimentary red wine, because HELP, and because wine. The flight was uneventful, which was great. My friend and I spent our layover walking around the terminal, which I was thankful for because I was still losing it a little... and also because of the wine. If you can’t tell my travel anxiety is through the roof bad.

Our flight was boarded (from Detroit to Shanghai) with no issues, and the attendants graciously were loading me up on champagne. We left on time, and more champagne and food arrived. Did I say more champagne? I tried to sleep but the turbulence was pretty bad the last part of the flight... so I only slept 2.5 hours. (Side note: being hangry and a lack of sleep are two states you don’t want to see me in). Apparently attendance make it their duty to get you drunk if you can’t sleep, which is something I agree with on a spiritual level.

Upon landing we were told that the gate we were supposed to use was “not available” so we had to wait a bit. They decided to have us exit the plane on the tarmac and take the shuttle to the building. Which was great except the down pouring rain pelting us in between the two. I looked like a worthless drunk soggy noodle. I should’ve taken that as an omen, but I didn’t.

We arrived at customs and it was a strange scene as there was a huge line for foreigners and virtually no locals (opposite of what I’ve previously experienced). So it took a bit longer than usual, but we had no hiccups going through. The custom worker was actually the nicest custom worker I’d ever met and I think we could actually be friends now.

We then picked up our luggage to recheck it. Our bags were the last off the plane, despite having Sky Priority (meaning ours should come off first)-No biggie. When we went to recheck our bags, all hell broke loose.

I was told by a frantic worker after she weighed my first bag (I had two), that I’m only allowed to take 20kg on the plane.... mind you combined my bags were 48kg. I asked several questions about what people do in that situation, why I’ve never had this happen on previous flights, why there wasn’t a disclaimer sent when booking the flight, etc. The worker was not answering any of my questions, or offering alternate solutions. I think she just doesn’t like drunk soggy noodles.

I think the Holy Spirit inhabited my body at this moment, because my patience was non-existent at this point. After about 15 mins of “what am I going to do” ... and thinking of alternate solutions like staying in Shanghai and booking a train the next day to get home... throwing out a bag- fuck that... she FINALLY says that I can pay a fee. BITCH YOU START WITH THAT. Why you wasting my time fucking asshole bitch nice lady???

This bitch lady gave me a piece of paper that I was intended to show at another counter to pay my fee. She had no idea how much it was at DID NOT tell me how to get to this next person. She also took my boarding pass and said they’d print a new one. She said “Next” when I asked for clarification, ugh no you didn’t. Thankfully my friend who was having the same issue, but was given better directions on how to get there by the kind lady waiting on her.

We were told we had to go to the 3rd floor, so we followed domestic departure signs for awhile... awhile... until we literally came to a dead end. WTF.... so we backtracked to our original spot, and we saw this other way,, so we followed that, and got to the 2F but still couldn’t get to 3F. I’m not kidding all the escalators were barricaded closed.

Clearly being two blonde idiots, looking lost as shit, this young man who spoke English asked if we are looking for the 3F too... hallelujah, we say yes.... he had just asked too, so we followed him to this elevator (which we would’ve never found because it was hid like the entrance of Narnia). UGH, this airport is stupid.

Oh but that’s not all. We get to the 3rd floor, go to the counter we were directed to go to and they say, oh no, you have to go over thereeeee. So we go there and we pay. Thankfully they took Visa (FYI- they don’t take US credit cards ANYWHERE in China so this is a miracle), and I paid my fine of $67USD. We asked about the reprinted tickets and she told us “oh no, you have to go in THAT line over there....” I’m thinking we should be going in the Sky Priority line as that’s what we always use, but she insisted it was the long line *Cue internal screaming*. So we waited and waited for our turn and they told us oh nooooo you go to the Sky Priority line, they have your tickets. Well I’d had about enough of this nonsense, so I nicely talked to the sympathetic woman who printed our boarding passes there. Thank you sweet angel!

Oh, but the story is just getting started. We went through security and they were double checking our carry ons... okay. Well they took child scissors from my friend’s bag then sent us on our way. We FINALLY head to gate 201. I look at the sign and see something in red. OMG. They changed our Gate to 9.... even though they JUST printed our passes... okay. We hustled over to Gate 9. It said we were in the right place YES. We went for a bathroom break, returned and they’d changed it to Gate 3... no big deal it was close but that’s annoying as hell.

We went to Gate 3 where we waited for an eternity. It got to the departure time and it didn’t say delayed and I was thinking... “did we miss the announcement?“ So I asked and the worker stated we would now depart at 11:30pm (original time was 10:15pm). A few moments later they declared the flight was delayed and that “the boarding time would be announced later.”

Well at this time I began to panic as we were supposed to have a driver pick us up at the airport at 11:30pm and I didn’t have anyway to call him and say we would be late. I don’t have a working phone number (in China or US), so I also do not have service to message Corey and let him know. So I had to buy internet for an hour just to Facetime him to figure out the ride situation. He assured me the driver would wait, and I was glad he knew we would be late.

So I went to get water and literally this airport is shut down almost completely. I saw this guy looking at a vending machine confused and two chicks giggling at him as he walked away. Stupid me tried two times to get a drink out of that thing, and it ate my money. God damn it. We finally found a place open so I got some water dinner (2 chocolate bars if I’m going to be completely honest here) and tried to chill out. We get back to terminal 3 and WHAT they changed our gate AGAIN to 202. At this point I’m externally about to scream, as this nice Chinese man asked if we were also going to Hefei. We said yes. He told us that he asked what was going on and the plane we were taking wouldn’t be there until about 11:30pm... so at this point we knew it would be awhile, but at least we knew something!

We thanked him for the info and ventured our asses back to Gate 202 area, and finally about 12:15am they announced we were boarding. The whole gate let out a cheer. I’m pretty sure I yelled “FUCK YEAH”, but 6 one way a half dozen the other right? We boarded and no sooner do they said that they had no idea when we would be leaving but they’d “update soon.” Well, the are lying liar heads. In an hour they repeated the same announcement. Since they are lying liar heads, and I was exhausted of their lies, I briefly passed out. I awoke at 2am when they finally said we were leaving. YAHOO!

I tried to finally get shut eye... mind you we’ve traveled over a day so far and I’ve only slept 2.5 hours (1.5 according to fit bit). Well the turbulence was so bad they the attendant woke me up and made me put my seat up... So that was a no go.

We finally arrived in Hefei, and and played the baggage game all over again. Our poor driver had been waiting since 11:30pm (it’s now 3:30am)... and helped us pack our bags into the car. He’s the real MVP in this story.

We safely arrived at the hotel at 4:17am.... Where we ended our travel fun with a broken trolley to haul our luggage upstairs. The concierge asked me where I was coming from and I said NY, and he asked “Is that why you’re wearing slippers.” ... they were flip flops haha.

It is tough feeling out of control and having such a language barrier with those who know what’s happening. Looking back, this is all hilarious and truthfully just a string of bad luck and weather. I was thankful to have someone with me to laugh with and keep me sane. We also met a few people along the way who were kind when we needed it most.

I’ll keep these memories to look back on when I think I’m having a “bad day.” I’m thankful I won’t be making that journey for another 6 months. Needless to say I slept 13 hours straight when I got home. I DID NOT MOVE my position at all or wake up once.

You can still have that 2020 vision

It’s been way too long since I was writing. But I keep seeing people posting about how 2020 has let them down and hearing people talk about how 2020 ruined all their plans, and I wanted to offer a little insight.

Now, to start - 2020 has definitely both let me down and ruined all my plans. in about 2 weeks I was supposed to be getting married, whilst shortly after applying for Kaleb’s visa. I was supposed to be moving forward with more training at work and getting everything organised for Kaleb to move here. Hopefuly, Kaleb will still be moving here on schedule, but I’ll get back to that later. In the meantime, I would like to share 3 things I’ve learned so far from this pandemic, in the hopes that those who are struggling can know they are not alone, and can also take their destiny into their own hands.

Firstly - it is okay to grieve. We are used to hearing the words grief and grieving when somebody close dies. But the true definition of grief is to feel great sorrow. Allow your time to grieve what you have lost - whether it is a lost family member, or all the festivals you will now miss out on. Pain is pain. Grief is grief. Whatever you have lost, grieve it. And don’t feel shame for it. Grieving will help you move onto the next stages in helping you cope with the current crisis. What we are all currently going through is a trauma. It will impact you in ways that you may not have even noticed or begun to understand yet, but don’t let that scare you. First, grieve. Mourn the loss of all the plans that had to be cancelled and changed.

Secondly - it is okay to feel. Maybe you are basking in the joy of not having to keep up with your demanding social life. Maybe you are grateful for all the time you now have to spend with your parents/children. Maybe you are celebrating not having to work. Maybe you are relishing a well deserved break. Whatever it is, do not feel guilty. Joy, happiness and gratitude (along with every other emotion) are nothing to feel guilt about. It is a lesson in discovering our truest selves. If you are enjoying the lack of a social life, maybe it is time to let go of some friends who don’t really fit in with your ideals. If you are grateful for more time with your parents/children, why did it take a pandemic to realise you missed them? If you are celebrating not going to work, maybe it’s time to rethink your career. If you are relishing your break, what can you change to not need a pandemic to give you a break? Reevaluating and asking question are not bad. The answers are not bad. And if you are feeling the exact opposite to all of this. That’s okay too. Ask different questions about how you feel. This brings us to the next topic. Learn to be comfortable with your own thoughts and feelings, because these teach you about you.

Thirdly - learn to adapt. We are used to adapting the world to fit us. But now we must adapt to fit the current circumstances. You all know someone working from home, you’ve all seen people using any video chat service available to communicate, and you’ve all seen instagram explode with live streams and constant updates (even more so than before). These are (or can be) very important ways in which we learn to adapt. But also remember that you do not have to adapt in all these ways the same way everyone else has. As I mentioned before, we are all going to be feeling different things and also learning about ourselves from how we feel - if we choose to. We must adapt not only in the essentials we have been forced to, but adapt ourselves to thrive from this lifestyle instead of simply surviving. Find a way to work, learn or serve from home. Find a way to create, share, experience from your own space. Learn to be your best self, even when you are physically limited because we are never spiritually limited unless we believe that we are.

Let me bring you up to date with everything that has happened to my circumstances in the last 4 weeks which have allowed me to learn these things. A month ago, Kaleb and I had a conversation that we would wait a week or two more to book our plane tickets, to see how things with the pandemic panned out. A few days later, the announcement was made in the UK for us to go into lockdown. The next day, my landlords told me that they were going to self isolate for 12 weeks and that I was welcome to continue to stay and they would waive rent costs, but I couldn’t go to work. Since my job is vital for getting Kaleb’s visa, 4 hours later I was on my way back to live with my parents in a car stuffed with all my belongings which had accumulated as I hadn’t been planning on moving for at least another 6 months. My 20 minute commute by foot had now been turned into a 40 minute commute by car, which is only that quick because the lockdown has decreased traffic. We then had to make the decision to postpone the wedding, and instead need to apply for a fiance visa which will get Kaleb here in August/September (if current circumstances don’t hold up his visa application).

Why am I telling you my sob story? Because it’s not a sob story. It’s my life. And I am coming to terms now with the grief I have held back. I adapted because I was forced to, not by choice. I feel joy that I only have to work half days, and that I have more time to play and create. I have realised that maybe once this is over I may want to take an advance in a different direction in my career. But on a daily basis, it doesn’t look as black and white as that. I am definitely not writing all of this from a totally zen state, showing you the way through my perfect example. Life is messy even at the best of times, and it is especially this way now. I am writing this as I figure out my own headspace. If you are reading this, I thank you for taking the time, and I hope all the best for you and hope this pandemic has not affected you too much. We are all learning and growing. Let this weird and crazy time remind you of who you really are, what you really want and what you need to do. Be creative. Be innovative. Be you. Go get your new and re-defined 2020 vision.

Singapore and Malaysia were never on my bucket list, cause I’m not a city person. However, how would I not give it a go if two of my best mates were bound for an international reunion?

Everyone says Singapore is freaking expensive and I’d agree on that for the Southeast Asian standard cost however it is like that for a reason. I’ve never seen a city so perfect when it comes to convenience and cleanliness.

On the contrary, Malaysia takes the toll on making this trip affordable, and a challenge when it comes to getting direction as not all can comprehend and speak English. But don’t worry, everything should be easy peasy after you read this post.

DO WE NEED A VISA TO SINGAPORE AND MALAYSIA?

For Philippine passport holders, not at all. You only need to show your return ticket or any proof that you’re coming back to the country like a company ID.

MONEY SAVING TIPS

TRAVELLING TO DOWNTOWN SINGAPORE FROM CHANGI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Considered as one of the best airports in the world for six consecutive years, Changi International Airport is a destination in itself with its groundbreaking design and amenities like themed gardens, movie theatres and entertainment corners which some you can avail for free with your departure boarding pass.

A free Skytrain service operates from 5 AM – 2:30 AM between Terminal 1, 2 and 3; and a complimentary Shuttle Bus service connect Terminal 4 to Terminal 2.

BY SUBWAY (SMRT): The fastest way to get to the city from the airport. Located in the basement of Terminals 2 and 3, it is accessible from the Arrival and Departure Halls and operates from 5:30 AM on Mondays and Saturdays, 6 AM on Sundays and public holidays till 11:20 PM.

Hop onboard the train for Tanah Merah Interchange Station, then transfer to an East-West Line train going to the station nearest to where you’re staying. You can use your Singapore Tourist Pass.

BY PUBLIC BUS: The fare is SGD 2.50 and will you get into the city in an hour. No change is given so make sure to prepare the exact amount. Catch bus 36/36A from the basement bays of Changi Airport Terminals 2 and 4. The first bus leaves at 6 AM and the last one before 11 PM. Please refer to this route guide for a list of stops and estimated travel times.

BY AIRPORT SHUTTLE: If you’re arriving at odd hours, you can take an airport shuttle bus for SGD 9 for adults and SGD 6 for kids under 12. These shuttle buses run 24 hours and will take you directly to your hotel. You can book tickets on Klook however, check first if your hotel is one of their serviced hotels.

BY TAXI: Easiest but most expensive way as it’ll cost you around SGD 20 – 40 with an airport surcharge to get into the city. Larger groups can take large taxis called Maxi Cabs, which can accommodate up to 7 people for a flat fee of SGD 60. For more information, approach the 24-hour Ground Transport Concierges at the Arrival Halls.

TRAVELLING TO KL SENTRAL FROM KUALA LUMPUR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Kuala Lumpur International Airport is the primary airport of Kuala Lumpur and has two terminals named KLIA and KLIA2. If you’re flying to Malaysia from the Philippines on either Air Asia or Cebu Pacific, you’ll likely be landing in KLIA2, which services low-cost carriers. The inter-terminal fare via KLIA Transit or KLIA Ekspres is RM 2.

Despite its name, Kuala Lumpur International Airport is 50km south of KL Sentral, the city’s intermodal transportation hub. It is home to KL’s service rails and bus lines and where you’ll be taking the bus or train back to the airport too.

BY KLIA EKSPRES: Kuala Lumpur’s fastest non-stop airport transfer from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA & KLIA2) to KL Sentral Station in the city in just 28 minutes. A one-way ticket costs RM 55 for adults and RM 25 for kids 2-12 years. Get a discount on the adult ticket if you book beforehand in Klook (RM 48). Please check the train schedule here.

BY KLIA TRANSIT: Kuala Lumpur’s commuter service between the airport and KL Sentral Station, which makes three quick stops along the way – at Salak Tinggi, Putrajaya & Cyberjaya and Bandar Tasik Selatan. Ride this train if you’re going to either of those stops as it cost the same with KLIA Ekspres (RM 55 for adults and RM 25 for kids 2-12 years).

BY BUS: The cheapest way to get to KL Sentral is through SkyBus. Estimated travel time is an hour and will cost you RM 11. You can save RM 2 by buying your ticket online as well. Make sure to check their bus schedule for your arrival time.

BY TAXI: It’s expensive as it will roughly cost you RM 80 if you’re lucky enough to have a taxi driver who follows the taxi fares set by SPAD– Malaysia’s Land Public Transport Commission.

HOW TO TRAVEL FROM SINGAPORE TO MALAYSIA OR VICE VERSA

Singapore and Malaysia are neighbouring countries which you can travel by air or overland via bus, train and car. However, I’ll only recommend either taking the bus or plane since taking the train is quite a hassle as you need to transfer through different stations.

BY PLANE: Most convenient yet expensive. If you’re departing from Malaysia, a one-way AirAsia flight costs around RM120 but from Singapore, it will likely cost you around SGD 60 for a one-way AirAsia flight.

BY BUS: The cheapest and convenient way. Numerous buses depart daily from Singapore or Malaysia all differ in price depending on the time and comfort. The bus will usually take 5 to 6 hours to reach its destination. A great place to start your search is at EasyBook.

Some buses feature reclining seats with enough legroom, a USB socket to charge your mobile phones or even WIFI. The cheapest you can get from Singapore to Malaysia or vice versa is SGD 10 (RM 30), and the most expensive on a luxurious bus is SGD 45 (RM 135).

TIP: Be reminded to check the corresponding departure and arrival location in Singapore (or Malaysia) and the travel date you choose in buying tickets. Please be advised to be at the departure area 30 minutes or an hour before the departure time.

HOW TO GET AROUND

Singapore and Malaysia’s MRT system are both efficient that we used it everywhere we go. We only needed to take a taxi when it was odd hours, and a bus when we went to Merlion Park after having lunch at Lau Pa Sat and when I was heading to the airport from Terminal Bersapuda in Downtown Kuala Lumpur.

We started our in Singapore and opted to rent a Singapore Tourist Pass, a special tourist card to unlimited bus and train rides (excluding premium services such as Sentosa Express) for the duration it is valid. It costs SGD 10 for one day pass, SGD 16 for two days and SGD 20 for three days; and with an additional SGD 10 rental deposit which you can get back once you return the card.

However, if you’re staying longer than three days and doesn’t need unlimited rides daily, it’s better if you get the alternative EZ-Link Card that you can use at the MRT for a discounted trip rather than single-journey tickets, public buses, taxis and even at a convenience store. It’s similar to Korea’s T-Money Card.

If you need to travel by bus often, it’s best that you use Google Maps to help you navigate as it tells you the bus number you need to ride on.

On the contrary, I opted to do single-journey tickets when I was in Kuala Lumpur since I didn’t stay longer than one day as I was moving around Malaysia and it’s relatively cheap with most subway fare costing RM 2 for a short-distance journey.

TIP: Familiarize the transportation system through these train maps: Singapore and Malaysia, and calculate your train fare in Malaysia.

WHAT TO DO IN SINGAPORE

1.) Spend a day on Sentosa Island

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS Located on Sentosa Island, this theme park is home to exhilarating rides like Battlestar Galactica, Transformers, and Revenge of the Mummy. You can buy tickets online or at the gate, but you can get discounts if you purchase them in advance through Klook for SGD 72.

Since I came in a day late and right on time for Chinese New Year, I skipped experiencing the rides thinking I’ll only end up in a long queue. However, I still didn’t miss taking a photo on their famous Universal’s Globe!

Bus Fare: SGD 1 ( not covered by the Singapore Tourist Pass as considered a premium service)

TIP: You may opt to ride the monorail train for free upon going back to VIVO City Mall.

WINGS OF TIME If you got no plans for the night, check out Wings of Time. The light show usually starts at 7:40 PM or 8:40 PM, but it’s best if you go there an hour to get good seats. You can book your tickets with Klook for SGD 13.

MADAME TUSSAUDS If you don’t mind spending extra to see life-sized replicas of famous Americans and historical icons in themed galleries, go to Madame Tussauds. It will costs you SGD 20 via Klook.

2.) Explore Chinatown

No trip to Singapore is complete without a visit to Chinatown, a place of mixed culture, cheap hawker centres to trendier bars and restaurants, and where you can buy the best bargain deals for souvenirs.

Subway Station: Chinatown

SRI MARIAMMAN TEMPLE The first Hindu temple in Singapore which worships the goddess Mariamman was constructed in the early-19th century by southern Indian immigrants.

BUDDHA TOOTH RELIC TEMPLE A beautiful four storey wooden eccentric structure, which is based on the Buddhist mandala and integrated with the Tang Dynasty’s Buddhism. As the name suggests, it houses what the Buddhists regarded as the left canine tooth of Buddha. Wear appropriate clothes if you intend to go inside the temple.

ANN SIANG ROAD Stroll down these elegantly restored shophouses that house the traditional home of clan a ssociations, exclusive social clubs, restaurants, bars and niche boutiques.

On Friday and Saturday evenings from 7 PM to 1 AM, both Ann Siang Road and Club Street, the name comes from the Chinese clubs that used to line the stretch, comes to life as the area is closed off to traffic and the crowd (and maybe even drinks) spills out onto the streets.

Head off to The Honeycombers for this hill’s neighbourhood guide.

NUS BABA HOUSE The Peranakans are the descendants of Chinese immigrants who came to the Malay archipelago. Once the home of a Peranakan Baba called Wee Bin, the furniture inside is all relics, making it a genuine representation of Peranakan life and culture in Singapore in the 19th and 20th centuries. Booking is necessary for free guided tours.

3.) Eat in a hawker centre

Lau Pa Sat is one of the most famous hawker centres where you can have good local foods at reasonable prices in Singapore. There are plenty of stalls to choose from, so have a walk around and check out what’s for sale and what others are eating– the perfect way to avoid food envy. A meal costs between SGD 2.50 – SGD 5.

Throughout the day different stalls are open, but it’s best to come here after 7 PM as this is when Satay Street opens, where they closed the roads when the sellers set up their barbeques. It might not be the best quality meat around, but sitting on the plastic tables with a beer and the famous snack is a fun way to end your time at Lau Pa Sat.

Subway Station: Raffles Place (Downtown Line), if coming from Chinatown

4.) Walk around the iconic Merlion and its nearby attractions

MERLION Being Singapore’s national icon, there’s no need for an introduction. The Merlion’s body symbolises Singapore’s humble beginnings as a fishing village called Temasek, which means “sea town” in Old Javanese while its head represents Singapore’s original name, Singapura or “lion city” in Malay.

How to Get There: Raffles Place (East-West Line) → Exit towards the United Overseas Bank Plaza and from the middle of the plaza, you’ll see the Fullerton Hotel. Merlion Park is behind the hotel.

THE ESPLANADE You wouldn’t miss this performing arts centre as it’s eye-catching! Locals have dubbed the twin structures as “the Durian”, as it structures resemble the spiky tropical fruit that is unique to this part of the world.

SINGAPORE FLYER Sticking out among the skyscrapers in the Singapore skyline, the Singapore Flyer is no ordinary orb. This giant observation wheel offers 360-degree city views, a panorama that stretches to parts of Malaysia and Indonesia on a clear day.

A scenic 30-minutes spin on the Singapore Flyer takes you 165 metres above ground or as high as 42 storeys, making it Asia’s largest giant observation wheel, as you marvel at the spectacular scenery below in a fully air-conditioned glass capsule.

You can go on a regular flight but if you want something a little more memorable, how about going on one while sipping on cocktails or champagne? For people travelling as a couple, they even offer flights with a romantic four-course dinner for two.

You can buy tickets online for SGD 33 or through Klook. Klook offers a Singapore Flyer and Gardens by the Bay combo pass, as well as vouchers to their beverage and dinner flights.

HELIX BRIDGE A unique, visually stunning feature in Singapore that links Marina Bay South to Marina Centre. A way to enjoy and photograph views from this bridge is through its viewing platforms. Each night the Helix Bridge is illuminated providing a beautifully lit walkway.

ARTSCIENCE MUSEUM The ArtScience Museum, which is the boldly lotus-inspired building that houses internationally renowned exhibitions, beautifully fuses art and science to tell fascinating stories. Immerse yourselves in the dynamic, digital universe of interactive art installations at Future World: Where Art Meets Science, a highly raved permanent exhibition in the museum. You can book your tickets at Klook for SGD 18.

MARINA BAY SANDS MALL Marina Bay Sands is the most iconic hotel in Singapore and sits directly opposite the Gardens by the Bay, which makes it the best place to grasp the size of the park. I’m sure you’ve seen pictures of its infinity pool on social media. Sadly, it’s only open to hotel guests, but, the next best thing for you not to miss its unparalleled view would be to head up to the Sand Skypark observation deck on the 57th level. You can buy tickets at the gate or purchase in advance via Klook for SGD 20.

The hotel has a flagship shopping mall too called The Shoppes, where you can shop the biggest collection of premium and luxury designer fashion and accessories.

Witness its waterfront come alive at night with its Wonder Full Light and Water Show, Southeast Asia’s grandest light and water show. It is free of charge, and the show runs at 8 PM and 9:30 PM every Thursday to Sunday; and 8 PM, 9:30 PM and 11:00 PM every Friday and Saturday.

Subway Station: Bayfront

TIP: The best location to see it would be outside of The Shoppes’ main exit or the left of the Louis Vuitton store, where you will be in the centre of the show.

5.) See the future at Gardens by the Bay

Singapore is considered the greenest city in Asia and a fitting symbol to it is Gardens by the Bay. It’s home to the mind-blowing Supertree Grove and two marvelous conservatories— Cloud Forest and Flower Dome.

SUPERTREE GROVE Stand in awe of these astounding vertical gardens planted with over 162,900 varieties of bromeliads, orchids, ferns, and tropical flowering climbers.

Designed to resemble towering trees and functioned like them as well- they all collect rainwater for use in irrigation and fountain displays, some are equipped with solar panels to store energy for the nightly light show, while others are used as air exhaust receptacles to help cool the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest conservatories.

THE CLOUD FOREST The smaller shell-shaped greenhouse highlights a 35-meter high mountain that boasts the world’s tallest indoor waterfall covered in lush tropical highland vegetation. It has two platforms, which give you stunning aerial views of the entire conservatory, Cloud Walk and Tree Top. The tour starts with a lift that takes you to the peak where you’ll start walking down the mist in Cloud Walk to the lower ground by the Tree Top.

THE FLOWER DOME Enter a world of perpetual spring through exhibits, which are complemented by varying displays in the Flower Field reflecting different seasons and festivals. You will also find yourself on a journey around the world with Baobaos from Africa, Olive trees from Spain, and Kangaroo Paw from Australia.

HOW TO GET THERE: Bayfront, Exit B → Follow the underground linkway, exit and cross the Dragonfly Bridge or Meadow Bridge into Gardens by the Bay.

6.) Discover awesome finds at Little India, Bugis and Kampong Glam

These three vibrant and ethnically diverse neighbourhoods have a long history of Arab, Malay, Bugis, and Indian merchants who have migrated in Singapore, creating a melting pot of religion, architecture, shopping and cuisine around the area’s thriving hippie yet cultural scene.

TAN TENG NIAH Possibly Singapore’s most colourful house, the House of Tan Teng Niah is in the heart of Little India, but its roots lie firmly in the Chinese colonialisation of Singapore making it one of the last surviving Chinese villas in the neighbourhood.

Subway Station: Little India

HAJI LANE The vivid graffiti-tagged alley located in the heart of Kampong Glam, famed for its charming and quirky boutique shops as well as hip bars and cafes.

MASJID SULTAN One of the oldest and largest mosques in Singapore, which can be easily recognised thanks to its golden domes.

BUGIS STREET The largest street-shopping bazaar in Singapore where you can buy affordable souvenir trinkets like key chains, tees, and postcards are available.

Subway Station: Bugis

7.) Enjoy the greenery at Singapore Botanic Gardens

With all of this small city’s urbanisation, it’s quite a surprise for a 158-year old tropical garden to exist. Singapore Botanic Garden, the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in Singapore, is home to a tropical rainforest, three lakes and multiple-themed gardens. You can spend an entire day here!

Entrance to the garden is free of charge, but the National Orchid Garden has an admission fee of SGD 5.

Random Post: I PROMISE you that you are not alone. No matter how ‘together’ some other 20 something seems…they are most likely sharing to some extent in your doubt, in your lostness, in the stretching of your paycheck, in your desire for purpose, in the pressure of your family and friends…We are all freaking out about something. For me today, I am freaking out because I'm currently sick and I have a travel ganap tomorrow. Pero you get my point? Apparently, we have to struggle, so let’s struggle upwards, struggle well. . . Hope this serves as a helpful reminder before we end our week! Love you guys!

A post shared by 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐳 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐥, 𝐂𝐏𝐀 (@colzvidal) on Mar 2, 2018 at 5:35am PST

Station: Masid Jamek (LRT), cost RM 1.60 from KL Sentral (LRT)

2.) Climb to the top of Batu Caves

Batu Caves, one of Kuala Lumpur’s most frequented tourist attractions, is a limestone hill comprising three major caves and several smaller ones. The 100-year-old temple is considered an important religious landmark by Hindus as the Cathedral Cave, the largest and most popular cavern in Batu Caves houses several Hindu shrines beneath its 100-metre high arched ceiling. It’s a strenuous climb up the 272 steps to the top of the caves so make sure that you don’t bring all your baggage.

Note: There is an ongoing track upgrading work between KL Sentral and Putra station that will last until November 2019.

How to Get There: → From KL Sentral, take the free shuttle bus to Sentul Station. The bus parks at the basement bus station, next to the KLIA2-bound buses. → From Sentul station, buy a ticket to the KTM Komuter Line for Batu Caves railway station, which costs RM 5 for a return journey. Kindly refer on the link for the specific train schedule.

SAMPLE ITINERARY AND BUDGET

Singapore and Malaysia are packed with interesting points, but you can do every significant attraction in 4 days if you’re in a rush. Here’s a sample itinerary:

Surprisingly, you get to see the best of both countries for less than PHP 10 000. The breakdown would be PHP 1400 for accommodation, PHP 4000 for prepaid activities, PHP 1850 for transportation and PHP 2300 for food. Take note this doesn’t include the plane ticket and souvenir (vary from SGD 1.50 for keychains to SGD 10 for T-Shirts) expenses. That’s two new stamps in a row on your passport as long as you spend wisely!

See the Best of Singapore and Malaysia for PHP 10 000 in 4 Days Singapore and Malaysia were never on my bucket list, cause I'm not a city person. However, how would I not give it a go if two of my best mates were bound for an international reunion?
