I visited my aunt in Penang on the second day of Chinese New Year (Feb 15, 2010). Kikey Loo, the world trotter, was back in her hometown then. I contacted her when I reached Penang. She told me that she was at her father’s shop, which happened to be near my aunt’s house. I decided to pay her a visit. After following her online for a long time, I finally meet up with my ‘idol’.
I mentioned to Kikey that my aunt used to sell chee cheong fun nearby. She told me that she knew my aunt. Then her father intercepted, noting that they were actually relatives. (I later confirmed this with my aunt.) It turned out that Kikey was the relative of my relative!
Kikey gave me a keychain which she got from London. Thank you, Kikey 
Can I have one keychain too Kikey? :p
