Hiking
the Camino de Santiago in 2019
|
Trip
report by GoldCanyon340 | The time has arrived when it can finally be said, "We are hiking the Camino de Santiago next month." It's been a long time in planning, starting in 2013 and originally slated for 2017 but put on hold until this year. The flights are booked, the first aubergues are reserved and Mrs340 and myself are soon on our way. We are hiking 800km from the second week in September to roughly the third week of October. read

Hong
Kong Trip or "Extreme Suiting"
|
Trip
report by harvyk | So a few months back, my previous Hong Kong suit finally gave way. I purchased a replacement suit jacket off the rack from a men's wear store, and a new shirt from K-Mart. The next day I threw out the K-Mart shirts and went back to the men's wear store to purchase a replacement shirt. This was hardly cheap. Now whilst the shirt and jacket "fitted", they never really fitted like a custom suit does. So I started thinking about heading back to Hong Kong to get a custom suit made. read

| Q:
Most recent flight? |
A:
Brisbane to Melbourne with Qantas.
|
| Q:
Favourite destination? |
A:
USA. It's such a big country with a wide diversity of landscape and people. Plus I went to University there so I have lots of friends - kind of like a second home to me.
|
| Q:
What's one thing you would never travel overseas without? |
A:
Medical kit! Unless I am travelling to the USA where drug stores are a plenty, I always make sure I carry pills for a wide variety of medical issues, particularly gastro, nausea, allergies, pain... and of course something for sleeping. I learned the hard way years ago in India when I didn't have anything with me... and got really sick... now I have a mobile pharmacy!
|
| Q:
What's one piece of advice you would give to a new AFF member? |
A:
Don't take it too seriously!
|
| Q:
Favourite thread on AFF? |
A:
The "outrageous
thoughts on flying" thread. It is basically a free-for-all of outrageous thoughts and is entertaining to read.
