How Long have you been away from home?

Today marks the 10th year that I have been living and working in China, I can't fathom where the time has gone! When I arrived back on November the 15th 2015, it was meant to be for 1 year, well thats now 10 years ago, and equates to 20% of my life!

The majority of the time I have been here has been great, I have had days where at school I could have quite easily packed my bags and left, but in the grand scheme of things, they were fleeting moments that ultimately honed my skills and led me to where and what I am doing now.

So a quick question for you all, What country did you start from, when did you leave, and where are you now? Fell free to add any magnificent places on your journey.

For me, I started in England (Penzance) Left on November 15th 2025, now I am in China, 10 years not quite on the road, but now certainly online! On route, I have visited the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam, all of them awesome (just holidays for the wife, but I was working when I could)
