Musing over the Noughties

In the last decade, I have:

gained 4 A-levels, a BSc and a Masters; had 5 jobs and 1 internship; lived in 10 houses in 5 countries; been held at the Mexican border and chased by Cuban military; swum with dolphins and been blinded by suncream; seen the Forbidden City, Sydney Opera House and the World Trade Center (before and after); taught hundreds of Korean teenagers to say “howya”; been lost in Pyongyang and Havana; discovered the value of true friendship and learned to appreciate family; appeared on radio and TV; eaten locust, horse and dog; experienced a Korean Christmas and a Hong Kong Halloween; jumped out of a plane and been tattooed (on the same day); and fallen in love.

I wonder what the next 10 years will hold.

Happy New Year to all who may stumble across this. I know it's been a while.
