DAY-DREAMER

This post has been in my draft for a hundred years, because I know I definitely have to post about this trip, but I never really had time to finish it,  until now (more than a year later). Vietnam has gained its popularity in recent years, probably because of cheap flights, but mainly because of its beauty. 8 out of 10 people who came to Vietnam love it, and the remaining 2 probably went to Ho Chih Minh and had some unpleasant experience. Most interesting part, 10 out of 10 people who said Vietnam is dangerous and chaotic have  never  been to Vietnam. All the reaction I get from my family and friends when I said I'm going to Vietnam, gave me the  BUT WHY  face. There's probably a scene from some war documentary going on in their brain when I mention Vietnam, followed by warning about food poisoning, and for some reason abduction....? My choice of destination has never gained much approval from the elderly and general public anyway. This, and backpack...

轉眼走到了 自傳最終章 已瀏覽所有 命運的風光 混濁的瞳孔 風乾的皮囊 也曾那般 花漾 最愛的相片 讓你挑一張 千萬個片刻 誰在你身旁 那一年的我 曾和你一樣 飛揚 惶惶不安 念念不忘 還是得放開雙掌 掌心曾握著 誰的體溫 漸涼 有沒有人 在某個地方 等我重回 當初的模樣 雙頰曾光滑 夜色曾沁涼 世界曾瘋狂 愛情曾綻放 有沒有人 依偎我身旁 聽我傾訴 餘生的漫長 在你的眼中 我似乎健忘 因為我腦海 已有最難忘 最難遺忘 在我的時代 還有唱片行 如同博物館 裝滿了希望 披頭與槍花 愛情和憂傷 永遠驕傲 高唱 成就如沙堡 生命如海浪 浪花會掏盡 所有的幻象 存款與樓房 掙扎與渴望 散場 回憶如窗 冷淚盈眶 風景模糊如天堂 孤單的大床 誰貼近我 臉龐 有沒有人 也笑憶過往 跌跌撞撞 當時的蠢樣 最平凡日子 最卑微夢想 何時才發現 最值得珍藏 有沒有人 告訴我真相 時間就是 最巨大的謊 以為的日常 原來是無常 生命的具象 原來只是幻象 這是我自傳 最終章 寫這首長詩 用一生時光 軀殼會解脫 藥罐和空房 我從嬰兒床 再走回光芒 有沒有人 知道某種秘方 不必永生 只要回憶不忘 我不怕死亡 只害怕遺忘 回憶是你我 生存的地方 有沒有人 知道那個地方 我能回到 我的最愛身旁 兒孫們都忙 就讓他們忙 離開的時候 就當我飛翔 自由飛翔

Can anyone remind me how is it February already? This is a trip I went with my brother in December, it's not even a travel log, and there aren't any itineraries here, just pictures taken from the trip. We flew from London and first off to Cologne, and then took the bus to Brussels and then Amsterdam and flew back to London from there. Christmas in London I have been anticipating going to this street since forever! Christmas light is love love love. And then to Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, we were too timid to try any thrilling ride. #timidsiblings Cologne, Germany  (24/12-27/12, nope, don't ever stay more than 2 days in Cologne)   Brussels, Belgium (27/12-29/12) My favourite city in these 3, it's slightly more pricey but the people and the streets, the plaza, the christmas lights, the waffle... alright, I love everything in Brussels.   Amste...
