Living in the Moment: Myanmar

Finally!!! The last day on our Myanmar tour! Haha. It took me almost 2 years to finish this blog post but hey.. At least I was able to finish it. The silver lining in this quarantine is that I was able to write this blog post. Planning to write more but it really depends on my mood. Still have work during daytime plus I am also catching on my Netflix backlogs and I'm kinda hooked up with two-point hospital so if I am not watching Netflix, it's either I am playing switch or busy scrolling through my social media accounts to see the latest news about COVID-19.

Prior to this trip, I didn’t really know anything about Mandalay as well as Inle Lake. I just know that I need to visit this country just to see the Bagan hot air balloons. And when I booked our tickets via Air Asia, this is when I only knew there is really a lot of good stuff Myanmar has to offer too. I mean why is this country not as popular as Thailand and Vietnam when there are also a lot of temples, palace, and an amazing view?

Once we arrived in Mandalay, I already knew that this one is a whole lot different than our experience in Bagan. After alighting the minibus that transported us from Bagan to Mandalay, we rode a tuktuk going to our hotel, Royal Pearl Hotel. Our hotel is perfectly situated inside the city and getting a ride to different places in Mandalay is a breeze. Since we arrived at the hotel around the afternoon already, I made it sure that our itinerary for the day is just simple and not so tiring.

It’s been almost 1 year and 6 months since we went to Myanmar and I am sooooooo delayed in writing this down. I can’t remember the tiny details anymore huhu. That’s why it’s always good to write while your memory is still fresh. This is one of the highlights of my 2018 and it just sucks that I didn’t blog about this sooner. I’ll just probably write what I can remember and believe me when I say I don’t really trust my memory that much but I’ll try. hehe. I’ll take notes from the photos I took and see if I can remember something from that. So yep, here it goes…

Hola!! It's been over a year now since our Myanmar backpacking and I promise I'll try to blog all of these backlogs as fast as I can now. I've been busier than ever because of new work, you know the stuff... Trying to learn as fast as I can so I can be effective in the role right away... And because I'm also fixing requirements for this stuff I've been praying for since I don't know when. Life's just been so pretty darn good in the past days it's like God telling me He or maybe She? Haven't forgotten about me. It's quite an emotional topic for me so I'll blog it maybe some other time. Hehe.

I'm excited to share with you the final stretch of my Southeast Asia bucket list!!! If you're reading my blog way back 2016, you would know that I am trying to visit all Southeast Asian countries and guess what?! I've finally visited it all!! (Except Brunei and East Timor) Visiting it all (okay maybe not all but I'd like to think it was all, lol) wasn't really my plan when I got hooked up on traveling. I just wanted to experience the culture and explore new cities until I realized that if I wanted to connect the history piece by piece of these countries, I really need to visit it all. My goal was to finish it all before I turn 30 but I was able to visit it all a week before my 25th birthday (Bali, Indonesia is the last location and Myanmar being 2nd to the last).
