24 hours experience

Oh dear...the Singapore trip...is it only last week? Quite an adventure I must say.

Last week I had a 'flashpack' trip to the Lion City. Its a flash-not-backpack trip I've done with my friends. The three of us (me, Dyah and Ttin) went to Singapore in different schedule, me and Titin went for 2 days instead of 3 days like Dyah's.

This post tittle was refer to how long are our flashpack trip. Technically, you can say it more than 24 hours...but just make it simple...lets just called it that way lol.

This was the first abroad trip for both Titin and Dyah, so it definitely a exiting experience for them.

p.s. Seems like I didn't hit the "publish" button before lol. We did this travel at January 17-18th, early this year.

First Trip

11th May 2013.

Sawadee ka...


I often intend to write down about my trip with Hilda before. Finally, this time has arrived :)
That was my first abroad trip. And we're heading to Bangkok!! It was only two of us, on our very first abroad trip...me and Hilda. Especially for Hilda, that were also her very first time on plane.

We've planned this trip from early of 2013. Because we didn't use any travel tour, we planned everything alone before or an the spot. Everything...start from the plane and all the itinerary. The joy of this kind of travel is they are flexible....we could easily change our mind about our plan :)

Our plane landed at Don Mueang Int'l Airport of Bangkok in the morning. We have to take taxi to Bangkok downtown, about half an hour ride from airport. The thing about Bangkok's taxi is...they will charged you too much if you don't make yourself clear about the destination. For that trip from airport to downtown Bangkok, we have to pay 400 THB, those exclude 40 THB for airport taxi fees in advance. From what I've read before, it only cost about 250 - 350 THB from Don Mueang Airport.

Bangkok's taxi driver seems don't have a lot differences with Indonesian taxi driver. They were gladly take extra income from foreigner, by charged too much...or pretend to not know what are we're talking about. Well...we've learn those misfortune :)

From what I saw, city landscape of Bangkok  didn't have a lot of differences with Jakarta. Things I could say is Bangkok has a better public transportation.

I'll share another story later ^^
