Our New Journey

living to the fullest

Author: Coco

I have always loved traveling and travel often for work. But 2.5 years ago we moved to Manila and started to travel more for leisure. It was the start of our journey to explore the world and ourselves as a family. My daughters love traveling with passion and always want to go to new places, meet new people, try new food. This blog will record our journey in this new living style and my thoughts around it.

Post-op adjustments

Day 4 post-op was busy. I was out since 8:40am and only got back 5:30pm. Meeting friends mainly. Things that I can't do during the first week post-op: I can't wash my hair in shower.

I finished ZEN in the morning while … Continue reading Slow simple day →

I slept another 10 hours and woke up with clear vision, almost no foreign sensation on my right eye, and no blurry anymore. I … Continue reading Getting used to the new “world vision” →

Feeling calm before the surgery and how it went

This is the day I'm been excited, nervous, anxious about for weeks. It is finally here! I slept almost 10 hours. Feeling rested and calm. I need to be fasting from food and water until after the surgery. I've never done a water fast. So far I am feeling okay, had last water intake 1:20am … Continue reading Feeling calm before the surgery and how it went →
