Vacation in Portugal and Spain, Bengbeng? Rm20k only

beijing tour

Bengsim : Bring your family and fly with me to Spain and Portugal for two weeks. You need to spend about Rm20k only. I got a good offer on accommodation. I want to get away for a while. It has been so noisy with all the election drama. Oh, I didn’t go to vote. Aiya I am only one vote. What difference will I make?

(She does this traveling thing a few times a year when she feels bored. She called because she wanted to tell me she took travel insurance in my name.)

She joked with Benghui if he would like to come along. Benghui of course said yes :( After the call, I had to slowly explain money and financial matters to Benghui. About how we would have to plan even if it is just for a holiday to Kuala Lumpur. Money is difficult to come by and not to be wasted when one’s resources are limited.

Benghui : If something happens to Auntie Bengsim we can go for a holiday?

Of course I would love to travel several times a year to all the exotic places in the world. I would like to live as if money is not a matter of concern. ;) However I cannot afford to live life her style so I do the next best thing : postpone it to a later date which I suspect will not come so soon. :)
