When I left for my Asia tour, it was still summer in Seattle. When I got back, it had changed into autumn. The leaves are a lovely red and gold, and the air is crisp. Really lovely.

While I enjoyed the cities in Asia, I must say how refreshing it is to be back in Seattle. This is a beautiful part of the world, and the fresh autumn air is such a nice change from the muggy tropical air of KL and HK and thick, polluted haze of Beijing.

It may be trite to say, but there's really no place like home. Travelling always reminds me how much I love Seattle.
