2024 kicked off with
an engagement trip to London and Paris.
Then I went back to Asia for the first time since COVID.
In the summer, I notched my 34th country visited with a jaunt to homeland of Volvo and IKEA.
All it cost me was sacrificing my iPhone to a Swedish canal and 3.5 hours of listening to Travis’ girlfriend.
Then of course, my zenith 2024 travel moment would be
the trip to Hong Kong for our wedding banquet and “minimoon” to Vietnam.
That started with getting reacquainted Singapore First Class.
Finally flying Emirates First Class.
