Dependent on online planning

I am well aware of the fact that I don't go looking for travel agencies to book my vacation, flights, hotels, etc anymore. I mean, I mostly travel in NA and even if I venture out to Europe, I can check for flights and hotels online.
Although for our Europe trip last year, we went through a travel agent, but I didn't meet or talk with travel agent myself, so I don't think I've had to go to a travel agent's office in 10 years.

So, the big hassle I just went through, trying to find a local tour in Asia, try to book a domestic flight in Asia, where you can book online only if you are a resident there.
Trying to find information, trying to communicate with them when we are on opposite ends of the earth, with their nights being my day and vice versa. It was a pain in the you-know-what.

I even had nightmares about forgetting to pack the stuff my mom got for my aunt and feeling as guilty as hell. Haha..
Anyways, now to make sure I actually got everything and get ready to leave soon.
heee heee..

Have a good trip, fi! Very true, I don't go to travel agency anymore. I don't go to banks anymore, either telebanking or online banking just saves time and trouble. You call it worse or convenient, I check all the online sites of my favorite stores at mall before I go physical shopping. :-) It's all about time saving.
