The Asian Fantastic |

My boyfriend really wants to go to either China, Hong Kong or Japan next year, but I'm dragging my heels a bit because of how much it's going to cost.

I plan to go to all those places at some point in my life, but at the moment I'm young and I really don't earn very much in my current job and at this stage in my career, and with rent and bills and everything I just can't imagine saving enough money for such a big trip!

Hong Kong does look fantastic though, I'd love to just be there experiencing another culture, though I don't know how we would survive with such a massive language barrier.

I'd love to experience the place and the views and the people, and go out of the cities into the mainland and see the countryside, it would be absolutely fascinating. But just not now, when we're older and wealthier yes, definitely.
