It’s been almost a month since we left for our two-week holiday in England. This year, myself and my husband both turn 50 marking this our 50-years of living celebration trip.

One thing worth notting is our experience studying at University are very similar. We both went to college in 1991 and have similar memories packing up and moving away, getting into trouble (but not really), and our love for Pearl Jam and Nirvana which was heavily played for both of us when we were at school.
