Good afternoon dudes, finally I became the man with the plan. The plan for the long awaited asian trip I mean. It was not easy though, the combinations of places to visit were countless, at some point I considered places like Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia.. finally the result is:

• 10th August: depart to Zurich.
• 10th-12th August: living the streetparade at Zurich!
• 13th Agust: depart to Beijing.
• 13th-23th August: Chinesse tour, guided by José-Beijing, great night punisher, we will get to know the attractions both cultural and party-related that the Chinesse capital has to offer. The Great Wall for example… And I am speaking in plural because 16th July, another ICEX man will join the tour, directly from Dubai, big Juan Pedro! When we are done with Beijing it will be time to trap ourselves in a 24h Chinesse train which will take us all the way down to Hong Kong. I had some pending issues with this city, this was the place I wanted the ICEX to send me when I applied for the job. As you know, I endep up in Stockholm instead… Lucky Fernando-HK got it
• 23th August: expedition to Taipei, Taiwanesse capital and temporal place of residence of another important guy within the ICEX party-animals sector: Andrés - Taipei. A few days here and then I reach the lonely phase of my trip, JP gets back to Dubai and I head to Japan!
• 27th August: arrival in Osaka, a couple of cultural days at this point, visiting Kyoto and surroundings. Around 29th I take the bullet- train (Shinkansen) to Tokyo. There it will be time to found out if the place is so amazing as Iván describes In Tokyo we have one of the most involved guys in our ICEX promotion: Quique - Tokyo. Not too much time to explore Japan, just 6 days but due to price considerations on the 1st of September I have to fly to Beijing.
• 1st September: last and likely to be remarkable party night at Asia. This has to be a proper farewell!
• 2st September: back to Zurich. The plan from here is not too clear, maybe I will spend a day in Switzerland visiting Geneva and then take an easyjet flight to Madrid from there or it could also be I go straight to Spain to show up Monday morning at the work. This is till to be decided…

And this is more or less what the asian trip will be, hopefully the best one in my life, for sure is the longest and most promising one. Let´s see what finally happens…
