TING CHIP: HAPPY FEET

I can still remember an old visitor of my Ama. She is an old lady whom my father calls her "auntie". He used to shower her with hugs and kisses on her hands. Then, at the back of my innocent thoughts, I realized that perhaps, this old lady is an important person in my father's life. I was there playing with my dolls (Perhaps I was 8 years old by that time..) and my father asked her to check on my soles.. and with eagerness I showed her both of my feet. She carefully examined my soles and she told my father that...

I WILL GET TO TRAVEL A LOT.

and I guess, APUH (Grandma) is right. :D

I LOVE TRAVELLING! :) I'm indeed blessed to visit different places already. But unfortunately, I haven't got a chance to take some pics on some of the places that I've visited :( but, nevertheless, they are still fresh in my mind. :D

Here are some of the places I've went already.. :D

MABUL ISLAND, MALAYSIA
