"My world of travelling...head for the next" jinwenwang's Profile

Plan in 2011

2011
Starting 2011 with 3 weeks' travel in Sydney, from one beach to
another...wonderful weather, wonderful times...Mum splits her time between Shanghai and Sydney now, running away from chilly frozen winter of Shanghai. I guess we may do the same thing when retired.

Mt.Huangshan in May again - Definately worthwhile to visit once a year in Mt.Huangshan; so beautiful, breathtaking when you are on the top.

Fly to Sanya beaches again in June

Lanaken (Beligum), Spain trip in Aug in the plan

2010 -
Phuket in Feb - visited my friend who currently lives in Phuket Island and to discover the south of Phuket

Paris in Aug - re-visit Paris after 10 years (time goes so fast...my very first time in Paris was in May 2000)

Mt.Huangshan in May - 5 hours climbing in West Sea Canyon

2009:
Samui Island, Thailand

2008:
Boracy Island - Philippine

2007:
Sydney - Sept27 - Oct 7

Macau, Aug 31-Sept 2 (city for gambling, rest? nothing)

2006 Updates: I turned to be Head Hunter in 2006 focus on Senior Executive level in China market. Anyone who is interested in working in China, feel free to contact me with your CV. email: vivianwang@careerintlinc.com

My hometown

Night scene of The Bund of Shanghai...Art galleries, Pubs, Clubs and Restaurants on the roof with a birdview over the bund...it is just beautiful.

This is the city where I am from and feel proud of always...the showcase of China's fast growth in economy...it is the place from where I set out to experience the rest of the world and where holds my wandering soul - my hometown.

2004 Travel wishes -
Sicily, Italy
Berlin, German (May 1-8)
Cario, Eygpt
Xinjiang, China

What a fruitful year of 2003! 2003 was a very gratified year for me and it became my criticle milestone in my life also. Of course I travelled a lot in Europe since I live in Maastricht, the Netherlands most of the year. I still can not get enough. I still couldn't make the trips in south Spain and African countries, but I will for sure...:-)

Trips in 2003:
Dec 23-29: Sydney, Australia
Spend X'mas on a crusier with my family...
June 26-30 Copenhagen (Denmark)
Met up Claus and Roy, 2 nice guys.
June 18-25: Athens & Cyclades
Met up a great Greek Andy.
May 23-25: Leipzig (Germany)
Leipzig showed me the great city.
May 10th: Vaals, Aachen (Germany)
Girls meeting with Stafie, Aukjet and Doris.
April 20-26: Rome, Pompei, Sorrento, Capri, Positano and Napoli (South Italy)
Fantastic trips in south of Italy.
April 19: Brugges and Gent (Belgium)
March 6-10: Valencia and Barcelona (Spain)
Met up great friends there and 1st time VT meeting experience.

My mottos:
Free your heart from hatred;
Free your heart from worries;
Live simple;
Give more;
Demand less and expect miracle in life...

Say what you mean, and mean what you say!

Don't wait for a smile to be nice;
Don't wait to be loved, to love;
Don't wait to be lonely, to recognize the value of a friend;
Don't wait for best job, begin to work;
Don't wait to have a lot, to share a bit;
Don't wait for a fall, to remember the advice;
Don't wait for more time, be able to survive;
Don't wait for separation to make it up...

Never never never give up...(Winston Churchill)

Where me...? updates

June 5th, 2004, Shanghai
since moving back from Europe, i have been all the way living in Shanghai, my home town. I started my working life again, lots of biz trips within China and overseas. but still i managed to have 2 short holidays in Sydney where my parents and sister lives during last X'mas and May.

Sydney is wonderful...always glad to go back. Compared to Sydney, Perth is too quiet for me.

Graduation Day - Aug28th, 2003

I received my mba degree on Aug 28th, one of the great days that i ever experienced. Now i am back home in Shanghai and started with working life again.

I believe I can fly...

"Who moves picks up, who stands still dries up."

I love travelling. The globe was one of my favorite toys when I was a kid and later on World Map on my wall...I was daydreaming that one day I am gonna to "conquer" the world :-) Nothing more than travelling could let me feel so much alive and freedom...the unknown world is so attractive to me and I just never get tired of seeing and experiencing more... Travelling fulfills my personality to be with more understanding, tolerance, sharing and loving. Travelling also makes me to really appreciate life for every day...and delicious local food :-)

So, travel more and it is your most valuable assets.

I now live in Maastricht with the purpose of both study and travel...:)) I just quit my job and pack & go...which suprised some of my friends...it was not an easy decision for me at that time, but I will never regret! And now I am even more sure that I made the right move and I will make most of the experience from this journey of my life...:)))

But, the more I travel, seems the less pics I take...all is in my memory...haaa :-)))
