Transit at Doha

I'm now in the Doha International Airport waiting for my transit flight to Kuala Lumpur. I actually arrived here last night and was given a hotel room in town to stay in, with complimentary meals.. nice! Then this morning I tried walking around the city and the minute I walked out of the hotel my skin felt like there were being toasted! It must have been at least 40 degrees out there! Didn't look like there was much to see so I retreated back to my comfy hotel room lol.



Anyways, I am going off to Bali from KL before going back to Brunei. Tanzania was amazing

Tanzania - Here I come!!

I can't believe I'm actually flying off to Tanzania tomorrow! I won't reach my destination (small town in the South) until Thursday though haha. I wonder how ulu it's gonna be there.. it's gonna be interesting regardless =)

I still have a little bit of New York City withdrawal lol. I think doing my elective there was definitely the right decision. Visiting the place as a tourist would be a totally different experience I think. I got to have a little taste of how it was like working there.. and I quite enjoyed it. Applying for work there is gonna be terribly difficult though.. and I hardly know anyone there! Hmm.. maybe I might change my mind again soon.

Okay I should go back to packing now.. need to optimise the limited space!!

Just to illustrate how much I love Central Park, here are the various sights you can see:

The 'Imagine' plaque in Strawberry Fields


The Bow Bridge where Spidey and MJ broke up


People doing crazy stretches like this


Belvedere Castle with the Turtle Pond beneath it


Overlooking the Turtle Pond


Hula-hooping at the Park


Alice in Wonderland


Gapstow Bridge


And last but not least, the NYC skyline with Brooklyn Bridge in the foreground, taken @ night. *Dreams*
