Top 10 Travel Destination I want to go to
I love to travel and had the opportunity to travel extensively when I was younger thanks to my dad needing to work oversea alot and his company provide the necessary arrangements for the family to spend holidays with him at the country he was working at. Even now, after I’ve done some traveling on my own, I still have not had enough and still wants more. I realized over the years that I’m not a person who travels to each destination and spend time going around shopping for stuff. Yes, I will still shop and buy stuff that catches my fancy but I won’t purposely travel to a destination for the sake of shopping only. So here’s my top 10 destination I’d want to head to before I keel over and hit the bucket. No, this is not my bucket list, no intention to drop dead after arriving to the airport from the last destination I check off this list. LMAO (more…)
The Laid Back Moments in Bali
AS you know from the previous post about my trip to Bali, we actually took time out in the morning of our 3rd day to do our own thing. So at 9am, we gathered our stuff and head off to the beach to have a stroll and check out the beach along Legian.
After spending about 2 hours at the beach, we headed back to the hotel to relax by the pool before our tour of Bali resume at noon. (more…)
Guided Tour around Bali Part 3 of 3
Day 3 of our tour was quite a short one. We skip the morning tour so we could relax by the beach and the pool before we head off to the tour that was planned for us. The tour operator picked us up at noon to bring us off to Lahbagga Restaurant for lunch overlooking a vast paddy field plantation.
Guided Tour around Bali Part 2 of 3
The 2nd day of our holiday in Bali saw us heading to a Batik factory to see how they produce batik clothes, it was an interesting moment for me as it reminds me of how I used to do this in school as part of my art syllabus. There were also a shop located in this place where you can buy some locally made batiks which none of us was bothered with.
We continued the tour by heading to a traditional Barong and Kris Dance where a traditional stage performance tell us a tale of Good vs Evil. It was a blast watching the performance and the performers I believe are so used to having tourists with cameras that they know where to look for us to get the shots we needed. (more…)
The Taste of Vientiane
Saving the ‘best’ of my Vientiane post for last and the best I’m talking about is food! The major importance whenever we travel to a foreign country is to try the local dishes. Right? Sadly, when you follow tour guides, they tend to bring you to places where you eat food you can always eat back home.
The 1st night I arrived in Vientiane, the only place I went to was Nazim Restaurant where they basically serve Halal food which is really not what I like. Everyone who knows me well knows that I love my porks and Halal restaurants don’t serve pork. Well, can’t really do anything about that since I was there with some colleagues. Left with no choice, it was the Tandoori Chicken that I choosed. You can read more of that in the previous food post. (more…)
