4 Weeks And Counting

As we scramble to get ourselves together for our first trip, we also realize that the clock is ticking hard and fast as we've not even got our passport photos done, let alone apply for the necessary visas. I guess we are true blue Malaysians, leaving things to the last minute.

In this week we found out that with the Russian visa, you got to know exactly what date you are entering the country, no two ways about it, as told to me by the staff in the embassy. What?! You mean we can't decide to extend our stay in Kazakhstan prior to Moscow last minute? You also need to identify which exact airport you are leaving from! I guess we gots no choice but to adhere, after all...it is back in old country. 

4 weeks and counting, and we've got nothing prepared yet. Well, except maybe this blog. We've not even check on the weather situation on our ETA to all the northern countries. Heck, I've not even cover up this grammatically wrong Russian tattoo I got on my ankle. Though I doubt that we'd be wearing shorts in Russia. Still, I don't want Russians to see it and think of me as a stupid fool as I do with people getting weirdly wrong Chinese/Kanji tattoos. Ah well, what goes around comes around.

If any of you have gone on the route that we are taking, feel free to tell us what not to eat and what to see, where to go and how to cover ourselves when we take a piss (in China of cos), what to say or whether we should smile at single men or even shake their hand. As China is also a big part of our route, we know we're going to be in for a really inneresting ride! After all, we are Chinese Virgins. You know what we mean!
