My second spiritual home

by pippap - last update: Oct 24, 2006

April 1989

Boyfriend seconded to Hong Kong for six months. Girlfriend saved hard and joined him for the last couple of days then a slow boat to China (literally), return by train and a holiday in Thailand. Bussed it around the country while he tested me on Contract Law for exam day after return to UK. Not related to the trip but I passed thank goodness

November 1991

Boyfriend re-seconded to Hong Kong for two years but girlfriend already seconded to Paris for a year (see My Spiritual Home) saves all her holiday and spends a month in Asia, first in Hong Kong then in Sri Lanka and Thailand.

June 1992 to February 1996

Girlfriend finishes contract in Paris and joins boyfriend to live in Hong Kong for a year which turns into almost four.
