Missing Home

Having half my life in Myanmar and half in Canada, I never thought coming back to Asia would have such an impact. I really believed that Kuala Lumpur was close enough to what was once my home (and in a way still is) called Toungoo.
It really did not hit me until two weeks in that I really miss home. That's either Myanmar or Canada. I miss my friends. In this self-discovery, I also noticed that I really am a social and like familiar things. Having new and exciting things make me feel good and exhilarated, but in the end I seek the same old things.
So, here I am on my adventure...going around and visiting places where my friends are. My first stop was Bangkok (last week). And, leaving Bangkok was harder than I thought. I enjoyed staying there despite the remnants of the protests visible in certain part of the city.  This week, I plan to squeeze Singapore into my weekend.
