Jakarta - Bandung Trip 2019 (Part 2)


Hi guys!

Been a bit busy the past few days. Sorry for the delay. Huh!  I wish I could do many things at once. After all, this blog can wait though. Hence, the delay.

So, in this post, I'm gonna share about my trip in Bandung right after Jakarta trip. Stay tuned. :)

Okay to begin with, Bandung is awesome guys. So awesome! I love it! I really love it! Everything was planned by Ana. We went to visit so many places there. Most of them are tourist hotspots. I think it's better write about it according to the day we visited, right? Alright, here is our itineraries in Bandung for 4D3N.

First of all, we had our chartered driver throughout our journey in Bandung. However we started on Day 2.

12 Feb 2019 (Wednesday) - Day 1
We arrived from Jakarta at around 12 noon after 3 hours trip on train. It was a smooth journey and peaceful. The view was really breathtaking along the sideways. We could see the hilly tea farm, greeny hills and cool weather.

As we arrived in Bandung, we took a cab and headed straight to our first hotel, Regalia. Then we rested.

After an hour rest, we planned to do our laundry first. We searched through Google and there was one located nearby our hotel. So after packing our stuff for the laundry, we just walked past by the streetside looking for the laundry service from our hotel. After we arrived there, dropped off our laundry then we continue pur journey by taking another walk to the Cihampelas Walk. It was already noon, so it was time for lunch. We walked about 20 minutes to arrive there and had our lunch at a bebek food restaurant (forgot the name, will update). 

One thing about Indonesia is that the food is all cheap, I mean affordable. For backpackers like us, it was all within our estimated budget.

After we had our lunch, we looked around the mall there and searched for a simcard. Yeah, we'd been looking for a simpack since we arrived in Jakarta. I don't know for some reason, it was hard to find one. Actually we already found it at the Jakarta Airport but we refused to buy 'cause we cleverly thought it would be easy to find in the city of Jakarta. We forgot the fact that Jakarta is always jammed.

We ended the day failing to find a simpack, but managed to send our laundry to a dobi centre. LoL...

Before we headed back to our hotel, we stopped by at the laundry shop to pick up our laundry. There were just do many street food stalls anywhere around. We did try one of them. Ana bought the Roti Bakar and it was amazingly delicious. Even though it's just a street food, it's packed nicely in a box. Good move though. That ended our first day in Bandung. 

I'll share about our Day 2 in Bandung in the next post. Stay tuned. :)

My passion, my journey

Some people are very lucky to live their dreams earlier than expected, some people not. I guess I'm one of those who have to undergo series of trials before I can actually say I'm on a stable state. Here, I'm talking about my dream, or better say, my passion? My Mom has always been the biggest supporter for me to become a teacher. My Dad has never specified what he wanted me to be since I was a kid. Well, he was and is a very busy man. When I was young, I always dreamt of becoming a banker, or anything to do with numbers. Back when I was in primary school, I remember I told my teachers that I wanted to be a bank officer (pegawai bank). As I grew up learning, I found my interest in accountancy. Hence, when I was in secondary school, I wished to become an accountant. I always performed well for English paper during exams. My English teacher always said that I could be a good English teacher like him too. I said, I didn't want to become a teacher. I wanted to be an a...

Rest in Peace Dear Grandma

A lot have happened recently. At some point, I just cannot think and deal with it anymore. I'm afraid I could not be able to bear it, but Allah will never test His servants with anything they cannot bear. A week before my grandmother passed away, I went back to my hometown with my brother and sister-in-law and nephew as I received a call from mother that she wasn't able to sit, eat and do things due to extreme fatigue. It had been a week since that happened but I was sticked to my plan that I wanted to go back to my hometown before Eid-ul-Adha. 20th July 2019 At 10-ish am, my brother arrived with my s-i-l and nephew. I asked him to drive my car as I really wanted my Dad to test drive it anyway. As usual, a journey on the road is always tiring. 6 hours drive and we managed to arrive home at 10 minutes to 7pm.  I just went straight away checking on my mom's condition and saw how weak she was. I couldn't tell everything here but that's what happened. I did...

Truth hurts

The truth never lies, though it always hurts.  I knew the fact that should have gotten rid of it since last year, but I don't know for some reasons, this year I can't handle it. It is something about my feeling that I rarely felt. This time around, I might have fallen for the wrong person. I didn’t want this to happen, but I couldn’t help it. Till next post, bye!
