Ask A Traveler: 8 Questions to Answer

I'm glad I came across madam @Jane 's article the other day so that means another article saved me from thinking of what to write about.

So this is where I got the questions from. Thanks madam @Jane for this idea and to madam @Momentswithmatti for starting this trend. Though I'm a bit late but I'll get this through still. Haha

There are a hundred questions to answer and I'll pick 5 questions or more. So let's start!

Question no. 4: What can't you travel without?

I can't travel without my toiletries and medicines. Everything us essential to me specifically my hygiene kit. Toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, alcohol, tissue, wet wipes, and of course my Katinko or Vicks Vaporub.

Whenever I go travelling, I see to it that my toiletries are complete. I prepare them a day or a night before the travel day to prevent me panicking. I hate the idea of being in a hurry or I go through under time pressure because the tendency would be, I will just shut down and lose energy right away.

Question no. 8: What home comfort do you miss the most?

My bed and the toilet! Just being honest here but nothing beat the comfort of your toilet at home ever! I mean, I don't know if it's just me or what but whenever I'm on travel, I'm always having a hard time to defecate.

Anyway, aside from the toilet, of course my bed! It's where I spend most of my time. We're best friends and it gives out the comfort that I need at night. While on travel for days, the first night of being away from home is the hardest because my body is still adjusting to the ambiance.

So that means to say that I won't get the right amount of sleep that I need to restore my energy.

Question no. 27: What's the longest you've been away from home?

The longest I have been away from home was when I worked in Cebu as a call center representative. Right after college, I looked for a job right away and good thing I have classmates who started working already there when I applied.

I was away for 6 months. I got home sick really really bad. I spent Christmas while working and I missed them so much. I cried and realized that I can't be away from them for months. There should be a time where I should go home and find rest.

Question no. 32: What's your favourite travel childhood memory?

My favorite travel childhood memory would be the field trip back when I was in Kindergarten. What I remember during the trip was when we visited the Coca-cola plantation and we went to an airport where we could have traveled a private plane of only the pilot allowed us to.

Honestly, that's what I remember. I couldn't tell exactly why we were not allowed to get into the plane but I guess they're only after our safety as kids.

Question no. 53: Train or bus?

I have been travelling by bus all my life so I'd like to try riding the train. I haven't ridden a train yet so I'd prefer to take the train and know how it feels like.

Question no. 57: Disneyworld or the real world?

I'm sick with the real world. I have been living through how things are going in the real world so I would love to experience what it feels like to go to the Disneyworld and know how fictional characters live their lives.

Question no. 63: What are you doing for your next birthday?

I honestly don't know. I think I'll just be doing the usual routine I do on my birthday. I usually celebrate it with the family and I make sure that I light a candle as my thanksgiving for giving me another year to live.

Question no. 76: What was the last film you saw?

The last film I saw was "Then Came You". I have read a post of @bmjc98 on noise recommending this film. It is a film about Skye, having a terminal cancer which befriends Calvin, who works in an airport, constructing a "to die list" and tries to fulfills them with him all.

It's a good and light film. Skye's character is very hilarious but hides her inner struggles about her condition. Calvin also has his own past trauma too that you'll discover through the movie.
