On the first day of the year, I published a post regarding our [me + boyfriend] first two places on our travel list.  England – maybe.  Philippines – definitely.

While going through my email early this morning, I stumbled upon offers on Royal Caribbean International cruises.  With several fantastic deals, I couldn’t help but share it with my boyfriend who was also looking forward to experiencing our first cruise together.

We haven’t come up with the decision on what type of specialty cruise to pick but fingers crossed, it’s going to be the adrenaline rush cruise.  We might not play sports during our free time but we sure want to try surfing and rock climbing on board a gigantic ship.  I’ll probably get addicted to climbing the wall after this!

In 2013, I wasn’t able to do some traveling.  Work somehow stopped me from visiting places.  With the promotion I got [well, sort of *wink*], I spent more time in the big kitchen than I used to.  No regrets though because I love my job to bits.

This year, I’ll still be working as hard as the past year [if not, harder] but I’ll make sure to step out of this town once in awhile with my boyfriend.  We haven’t planned much yet but one thing’s for sure, we’ll be flying home to the Philippines.  Last week of December, maybe?  I can’t wait to spend new year’s eve with my family back home!  It’s going to be a four-week vacation so it’s going to be short but fun!  And yeah… December-January vacation in the Philippines?  I can’t wait to attend class reunions left and right!

We’ve also talked about flying back to England sometime in June.  If not, July.  If everything falls into place, that would be awesome.  The last time we were there was in August of 2011 and we’re so looking forward to our second UK vacay.

So far, I only have two travel plans on my 2014 list.  I have a feeling that the list’s going to be a lot longer as days pass by.  *excited*

Happy 2014!  Greetings from Sweden!
