The long journey to my parent's hometown is what I look forward to the most every year when I was young. But as time went on my father got busier and we went to our hometown less and less.
If I remember correctly, it's been more than 10 years since we haven't been there together. While I just went there 2 years ago, stopped by for a moment to say hello to my Uncle and Aunt.
One thing I regret the most is not being able to fulfill my mother's wish to visit her hometown because my mother's health continued to decline and in the end, she left us all.
