This is for you who is about to go and explore a new life.
Wish you would have time to read this first, and come back to here afterward.

We all have schedule and work to do, but rushing through our great life is even more sad than passing by this great violinist.
Stop by for a whole year in Australia and "listen" to what is going to happen to you. It is not just a 1 year trip to Australia, but it is about your very new life that is about to come true.
I can never forget the life I had in Sydney, because I was empty in the beginning. I was so empty that I got depressed and confused when I touched down Sydney. "Alright I arrived! .... alright .... what's next?" Then I gradually started my life near the Coogee beach and got used to the view of the entire Coogee when I was walking to the roof-top and used the washing machine.
And my trip to Vancouver was just an opposite. I was full. I carried with me all the school papers, research plan and ideas. I was so full and oriented that on the first day I stepped into my room, I already had a plan in my mind. "Wake up at 8am tomorrow. Go to SFU and say hi to the Professor."
My brain was all Australia when I was back from Sydney, and my brain was just no difference than what I was in Hong Kong when I was back from Vancouver.
Please, empty yourself and be completely open. Allow every new thing to go into you in the coming months. Fill up yourself with your new life before you are back. I believe this is a more meaningful mission than pushing yourself to find the cheapest air ticket ever in the history of man-kind.
Don't pass by your new life. I passed by the Vancouver because I had purpose to go there. If you don't have any purpose to go, why not be prepared to stop there and just listen to the "what's next" situation?
The value of life should be far beyond what we can define. Explore the new way to score a life in Australia. You will never regret! HAHAHAHA!!
All the best wishes to you and your life in Australia,
Wilson
