Last year, we had our retreat at Banaue(home of the famous Rice Terraces) and Sagada,
North of the Philippines. For 3 years now, me and my friends,mostly full time staff of our church do this year end retreat and at the same time planning for the coming year.
This year we dream of doing it in Malaysia,from December 26-30, though for us it is quite impossible but we dream big dreams and we beleive that our God will supply all our needs..
How about you? do you have any kind of such activities? would you like to share your experiences?

Hello cefaz_21,
Surprise! Surprise! I am happy to hear that you are planning to visit my country! I just hope all of you can make it and welcome to my country! May I ask you something? Where are you planning to visit? Kuala Lumpur? How glad I am to hear this *laughs*
As for me, I always spend my year end with my family. My company will be closed for the last 7 days of the year and I always plan a personal trip with my family. This year, I haven't decided yet as I need to wait for my husband to come back first. Maybe we will go to Singapore to visit my aunt or to the east coast of Malaysia as my husband never be there before *smiles*

Hello cefaz_21,
Yes, I am in Kuala Lumpur right now. I think that will be the first place to visit for foreign tourists *smiles* Kota Kinabalu is nice. Been there for a few times but haven't got a chance to climb the Mount Kinabalu. Peninsular of Malaysia itself has a lot to offer for tourists. You will be surprise to see people here eating 24 hours a day so you don't have to worry about the food *smiles* Keep me update about your future trip. I just pray that all of you could make it. Good Luck!

For every year end I must travel and it is my annual duty to visit my father in Maryland USA for Merry Christmas. That is my noble travel in my life...I think!!!. And stay with him for one month until the end of January, back again to Malaysia for my mother and I live with my mother.
That is my annual "year end planning".

I wish I have retreats even just for once a year. But i don't have. I only experienced attending retreat once. And i really wanted to experience it again.
