O... It's the last quarter of the year again. This part of the year usually meant busy moment at work for R, yet she would also steal some time for vacation overseas.
The break could be impromptu trip. There was really cheap airfare to
Tokyo a few years back. Hence, R seized that opportunity to revisit Tokyo again. As it was spontaneous, there weren't detailed research and planning to see, do, eat what. In return, R chanced upon a parade, visited another part of a place of interest that was missed previously and did some fruit shopping.

Japanese Kiwi - tasted as sweet as it looked.

There was also well-planned trip for long break for as long as 3 weeks. One of such was to
Japan. It was R's 1st autumn trip. Though it wasn't maiden trip to Japan, it was 1st time visiting Hokkaido and travelling long distance via train.

| O... Autumn. How else to enjoy? |
R was fortunate enough that taking 3 weeks break from work ain't impossible. Hence, last year was yet another long trip. Tat time to
Europe. Travelling to a new continent was exciting but scary after having heard safety concerns of tourists. Carefree travelling could happen even when caution was exercised.

R seemed to like revisiting places that she enjoyed. Australia was the 1st country R had been for a long holiday. When R revisited Melbourne and Tasmania during its summer, I also had the chance to revisit my homeland. And it was extremely fun to go on the 1st ever self-drive trip.
