Relocation and moving have been a part of my life as I have moved from city to city at least three times and two of them are oversea moves. I am not very fond of the “elimination” process (who would anyway?) but I sure do enjoy this “new place” experience (don’t be envious).By setting up this blog, it allows us not to leave our family and friends behind even though we are physically far apart.
I hope this blog can share and update our status with our dear family and friends who are now in other cities. And they can say hi to us as often as they like.
一直以來都想寫 Blog, 這次由於搬遷到一個新城市的關係, 促使我這個寫Blog的欲望。如你看看字典, 你會找到「搬」意旨「遷移或挪動」, 「遷」是「搬動或變易」的意思。字典卻沒有提及搬遷也是一個棄舊換新的過程,因為在搬遷的過程中,你很不容易把一切都「搬」到新地方, 總要狠下心把一些帶不走的棄掉,例如一些你感到很驕傲的學校功課或作品、 那些你已遺忘的偶像海報和閃卡, 還記得當年如何搜集回來嗎? 那些你已不再合身但是最愛的衣物, 最重要的是那份與好友的親切關係。有見及此, 我們希望藉著這個Blog來分享在這個新地方所發生的一些趣事,可以把我們和親朋好友聯接在一起。
搬遷已成為我們生命中的一部分, 明顯可見的已有兩次是從一個國家搬到另一個國家, 且有三次或以上的是從一個城市搬到另一個城市。談不上是甚麼專家,但搬遷已經不再難倒我倆。唯一不喜歡的是「棄舊」的過程, 有誰會喜歡棄掉一些曾是最愛的舊物; 但一想到「新的旅程」在即便又驚又喜,這種機會可是難逢。希望這個Blog能把遠方的親朋好友拉近。
這個不僅是讓我們分享我們的現狀, 并且希望你們可隨意分享你們的一點一滴。

Having been part of that "elimination" process, I understand perfectly how you must have felt. I like the Chinese portion, it's really well-written and very touching.
I am in the process of elimination as well. I never thought cleaning my room would take so much effort! It is sad...especially when it comes to purging things that have so much sentimental value!
The writing is so good....You should be a good journalist.
thank you!! that is very encouraging.
Received your Christmas cards. That's so nice & warm.
Here to celebrate your new blog moving. It's a good place for memorizing stuffs. Keep contact in here. See you~~~
Hi Hi, Grace & Mavie here.
Really glad to find you and everyone here.
Love your travel journals. Go to more places and bring us all there through this blog. Reading your Venice piece, I feel I am there without looking at pictures. Well done!
Merry Christmas!
Blogging is like writing diary - the challenge is sustainability. There are actually quite a few blogging "expats" (wherever you're from :) who live in Canada, the US, Sweden, France, etc. Like yourself, most of them write in more than one language. So join the fun ... and in the process of elimination, we are creating something new !!!
ps: My very first blog article ---> you'll recognize the place in the pic !!!
