Why did Alice follow the White Rabbit?

Well, definitely it was her unthinking decision to follow the White Rabbit that leads her to her adventure. But have you ever wondered why she really followed him? Because the White Rabbit was talking? Or because he was wearing clothes? Or maybe because of his fancy pocket watch? I think it’s because Alice love adventures. Curiosity might lead her to fall down the rabbit hole, but the whole adventure was worth it.

As a “rush packer”, there are already two instances that I forgot something and I just noticed it when I’m already at the airport. Although I have somehow solved these problems, it is really advisable not to forget these things. I ended up wasting my money and disturbing other people.

For me, I highly recommend the TripIt app. This was developed by Concur Technologies, an American travel management software company, and was released in January 2011. I started using TripIt in August 2013 with my trip to UK. And since then, it has become my steady travel companion.

During my nearly 6 years stay here in Japan, I gained a doctoral degree, scientific papers, international friends and a lot of stamps in my passport. I am a researcher by choice, wanderer by chance.
