It was a surprise when we opened the letter about eight months ago. I've kept it a secret from you, not really sure why. Maybe because I didn't quite believe it. Maybe because I didn't want to make you jealous. Maybe because I didn't think it real until I was sat on that plane.
Going where? Why a surprise? Let me explain.
The destination: Cambodia.
Why a surprise? Boyfriend had entered a competition online. And won the holiday. A free holiday to Cambodia for two people. Return flights in business class included. Accommodation for a week in a deluxe suite in a posh hotel in Siem Reap included.
Not included? The extra 10 days we decided to stick on the back of that. No point going half way across the world for 7 days right? So that's why I've been a little quiet the last couple of weeks or so. I've been having the time of my life in this amazing country. I had never been to Asia before, and it's definitely one of the furthest places I've been in my life.
Come back in the next few days to see some photos. You will not believe it. I still can't.

You need to tell us if you're going to disappear into thin air - we're like concerned bloggy parents here!
As for not making us jealous? Erm...fail. I'm green with envy. GREEN.
Get those photos and thoughts in order and tell us more!
Enhorabuena por el viaje.

That's lovely petit filoux! Sounds like a fantastic trip, I've always wanted to go there! Good for you both!! (your "sibling" is probably jealous about it now...;-)
As an only child married to somebody with a younger sister, I found your previous post on siblings very interesting. It is quite weird to experience having that type of "sibling" and the rivalry attached to it when we as only children, are not used to it, isn't it? I see quite a lot of differences in the treatment of my in-laws to one and the other; perhaps because my hubby is a man and very independent and his sister the only daughter and more needy but my mum-in-law's treatment to one and the other is unfair sometimes and I really fail to understand it. Focus on the great things in your life; life always seems greener on the other side but you will be quite amazed to discover a very different side if you dig a little bit deeper. Look forward to seeing the pics, have a lovely weekend, x Pati
