Travel // My Wanderlust Bucket List – 2020 Edition

On May 15, 2020September 2, 2020 By Dee ThompsonIn Africa, America, Asia, Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Lombok, Sri Lanka, Travel9 Comments

I've decided to draw a line in the sand and write my top travel wish list as it stands at the moment in 2020 in the midst of covid-19. I figured that as we haven't travelled anywhere yet this year that it's basically day dot for the year anyways. I've narrowed it down to 19 locations I'd like to travel to.

Just like that we’re back to home schooling. Kudos to my son’s teacher who answered most of the kids queries today while laid back on a sofa on the iPad, 😂 chewing gum, can only imagine he had a bottle of gin off screen. 🥴 #onemoreweek when will homeschooling end. Told my mum how lucky she was that she got through my whole education without having to be my teacher 😂

An ode to new year. I don’t conform to a typical New Years resolution instead I pick a word for the year as inspired by @hanbullivant many years ago. So this year my word shall be ‘fun’ because there wasn’t enough of that in 2021. So 2022 let’s be having you. What would your word be?

Had to get proof that I kept the Christmas tree alive for another year on the grid. Love how this little guy gets bigger every year and every year we can add some more decs 🥰 (appreciation to @creativelyvicky.sg who had him in her nursery for the last month)

First post in a while. We had to move out of our last place due to an obnoxious landlord (long story I might share one day once I’ve healed), and whilst it was hard to trust the universe it kept us safe and I feel like we are now where we are meant to be.

A pause. It’s hard to believe it’s almost Christmas, we’ve been so consumed by our move that I’m looking forward to a brief pause in December before our move in. And no we are not travelling for Christmas, but if someone could send some family to visit us that’d be awesome. 😊

The calm in-between our move out and move in. In Singapore you have to hand your apartment back the way you found it. Landlords don’t readily accept fair wear and tear, so with that we are in a phase of getting our unit ready for handover. It’s nail biting stuff especially when the landlord holds your deposit not a 3rd party like in the Uk. Quite often it can end in small claims court. Praying it goes smooth 🙏🏻🤞🏼 #expatlife #expatinsingapore #expat

We are well into the moving roller coaster which is throwing lots of curve balls at us currently. Just have to believe the universe has a plan and roll with it. Trying my best to surrender 🤔 in the mean time soaking up every bit of sunshine. #expatliving #expatsg #expatlife

Sunsets and a boat that I wish was mine. Wishing I could jump on this boat and travel but I’m sure that wouldn’t be allowed either. Singapore is tough at the moment as we are still in groups of two when outside the house and now as a non-vax (medical reasons backed by my doc) I’m not allowed into any malls or attractions. This should be fun with half term upon us.🤪 #singaporeexpat #expatliving

Looking forward to when time off work means getting on an aeroplane and actually going somewhere, I’d settle for jumping on a boat and using my passport too, even a train. So pleased I got a new passport last year 😆🙄 all of you Europeans enjoy your holidays but also spare a thought for those of us still not able to travel 😵‍💫 #expatstuckinsingapore #expatlife #expatinsingapore #expatsingapore

Last week I escaped for a walk with a friend a couple of mornings while the kids were at camp. It felt so good to stroll, take photos, chat and drink matcha 😊 albeit sweating a storm and struggling to breathe under a mask 😷 #reallife #hajilane #expatinsingapore #singapore #alleyways

Beaches and shophouses basically my life at the moment till we can travel again and I’m only a little mad about it. Dreaming of endless European summers though with brighter evenings, cool mornings, fresh produce at the market, cheap wine… soon soon 🔜 hopefully x #covidcandoone

Went out for dinner with the girls last night. Was so much fun to giggle, chat and catch up. But alas Singapore goes back to groups of two next week unless you’re vaccinated 😒 feels like so many people are escaping, moving back home, moral is low here as we feel like we’re moving backwards. How you doing?
