Die die also want to go spirit
I finished reading this travel book today. The book was written by a Malaysian backpacker on her journey touring around the world as a backpacker.Seriously, I admire her so much because she is so courageous to handle any situation in a foreign country, since a lot of them( like spending overnight in the police station) sound nasty to me. I think, this is the kind of spirit we should look up when we are in a foreign country, the so called 'die die spirit'.That's because many surprising and shocking things will occur and you will have mostly yourself to confront all these things, that's when this 'die die spirit' lends you its hand by helping you to go over the boundary.Also,imagine if the author did not choose this path, with her 'die die also want to go travel' spirit, she would have missed out so many interesting adventures in her life in which not everyone will have the same determination to go through it.
Of all the places she had been to, the one that appeals the most to me is Namtso Lake(纳木错天湖) in Tibet.

I'm so tempted to go there after browsing through some pictures of Namtso lake, it gives me a sense of tranquility and endlessness, perfectly fit as a place of my style. Hmm, I'm sure that I'll make my way there before I'm 30.
Yosh, I actually booked my trip to Seoul next year partly because of the motivation I've gained from her, although I'm still short of the budget now, like CK says, just work like a 'bull' for the following months and we'll be fine. What we all need is that first kick to keep us working ahead.
Dear Seoulmates, see you guys in 2011!
