To scratch off the whole map!

Always viewing myself as an avid traveller whose ultimate goal is to visit all the interesting places on earth, I thought I was making okay progress over the past several years. It feels like I've written about many trips in different places: Facebook, Weibo, my other blog, and yes I've even used actual notebook to jog down thoughts on the road.

While traveling in Barcelona in 2012 winter, I saw a scratch map of the world, and bought one first thing when I got back to London. Here is the result after ~30 minutes of scratching-

It turned out the area I've been to is so pathetically small......

Then the alarm suddenly went off in my head that I need to get more serious and disciplined about traveling. Otherwise, I won't have enough time to explore the whole wide world.

With the dedication in mind, I opened this new blog, and started planning an extended trip from Asia to Europe to Americas before starting MBA this year.

Writing this down at the airport, waiting for my flight to Munich. Let's get started!
