As some of you might know, I have stepped back into Canadian soil. Although I do miss travelling and catching all the neat sites from Tiff’s godsend Eyewitness books, I do miss being home and getting a bite of some home-cooked (aka take-out) eating. I also miss my comfy bed, my clean sheets, my conditioner (not like that travellers 2-in-1 I’ve been using), my cellphone, my computer, and of course, high-pressured showers.
