I was asked by me boss to go to Bangkok next Tuesday. ‘Wow, going abroad on business trip? It’s a free vacation’, comment some of my friends. Having heard them made me write this blog .

I used to be very excited when asked to go for business trip, going somewhere (mostly abroad) on company expense. Same like them, it is like a free vacation. Until on one business trip to Melbourne.

I always have fascination with Australia. They have mixed culture between western and easter country. Plus their beautiful ocean… a nice country to live. And I wasn’t dissapointed having a chance to stay at melbourne for 1 week. Seeing the tourist information leaflet, I could make a list of place to visit, that will take full one week…. but since it is a training…. I have no time for that.

At least, I can go for skiing on the weekend, I thought. It turns out that…… I have another training to attend in Jakarta on Monday. Well….. bad luck eh… got to go back.

You can ask all of your friend, who often go for business trip, most of the time, it will be…. like the name…. business trip, no vacation whatsoever. Might just better if the company just give me a huge paycheck, without any business trip. I could make it better for my vacation trip.

So much about business trip……..

A relationship cools off after 5 years. And then, what it takes to light the fire up is…. a few calls to talks something unimportant!

They tried a few of unimportant call, just to say hello, talking about anything unimportant, but the most important thing is: they start communicating again, and in a relaxing situation.

It’s all about communication after all…….

We live in a free world
I whistle down the wind
Carry on smiling
And the world will smile with you
Life is a flower
So precious in your hand
Carry on smiling
And the world will smile with you

When every race is run
And the day is closing in
I don’t care about the world
I’m living for the light
Don’t cry for me today, ah-ah ah…

We live in a free world
I whistle down the wind…

I can not be your judge
Mr. jailer is your host
He’s keeping you inside
And hides you from the world
No catcher in the rye
Can help you from yourself

We live in a free world
I whistle down the wind…

Please mr. agony
Release them for a while
Learn them the consequences of
Living without life

We live in a free world…
