Fangirling in other countries - My Travel Journey
April 15, 2020
I love to travel. That's a fact. But because I am not that rich and I am still a student, I find it hard to travel always. It will actually take me awhile to save money for a certain trip knowing that there are lots of concerts coming in the Philippines.
Just in case you're wondering, I started travelling in 2018. So far, I have visited three countries already. One of those trips were actually sponsored. Few months have already passed since I last traveled out of the country and I am definitely missing it already. I was suppose to travel to Taiwan this 2020. Unfortunately, this pandemic happened and I have no choice but to cancel it. Instead of being sad with what happened, I'll just be reminiscing my past travel journeys.
Here is a list of the countries that I have visited:
HONG KONG
Though it wasn't my first time to ride a plane (since my first time was during my Ilo Ilo trip), it was my first time to go out of the country. A lot of people said that for my first travel experience, I should go to Hong Kong first. Maybe because a lot of Filipinos are working and visiting the country.
I was with my cousin, Ate Neri, during our stay here. The most memorable place that I have visited during our stay is Disneyland and Madame Tussauds. We only stayed there for 3 days so it was quite a short trip. I plan to go back to Hong Kong one day, when everything is fine already.
MALAYSIA
My second out of the country was also on the same year, 2018. The main reason why I went to Malaysia was for Wanna One's concert which happened last July 21, 2018 at the Axiata Arena. During this trip, I was with my KPOP friend, Ms. Jay. Wannables forever!
This trip was more like a birthday gift for myself since I traveled a day after my birthday. Aside from the concert, we also got to see the famous Petronas Tower. Aside from the concert itself, one of the most memorable thing during our trip was their milk tea. A lot of people know that I am not much of a milk tea fan but I really loved their milk tea there.
SOUTH KOREA
In 2019, I have finally visited the land where my fangirl heart really belongs, South Korea. Oh, and yes, I have visited South Korea twice on that same year. First one was around May after my thesis defense and all. The second one was around October - November since we were invited to attend the ACH Program for Hallyu fans.
During my first travel in South Korea, I stayed there for around 5 days together with Ms. Jay and Ate Tin, my KPOP friends. We visited JYP Entertainment and to my surprise, we saw Stray Kids' Hyunjin and I.N. Aside from that, I got to see DAY6 and Eric Nam too at the Beautiful Mint Life.
During my second visit in South Korea, I saw a lot of artists. That's why my fangirl heart is so happy. I got to see my crush since 2012, 2AM Jinwoon. Not only that, I also saw BTOB's Changsub, Yoo Jae Suk, TXT, and Nu'est.
FUTURE TRAVEL PLANS
Like what I have mentioned earlier, I was suppose to travel to Taiwan this 2020. Unfortunately, it was cancelled. But I still have the plan to travel to Taiwan soon when everything is already okay. I also plan on going back to South Korea to visit more filming locations. Aside from that, I plan to visit my ASEAN friends who I met at the ACH program.
I don't know when will I get to travel again but I promise to travel at least once a year. Hoping that this pandemic to end soon.
