Postcard #1: Vatican

The one and only post office in Vatican
Postcards and travelling are so closely related.

I learned it for the first time when my friend told me that she has sent many postcards to Indonesia while she was staying in Germany. I laughed at her at first but the more I travel, I realized that even though postcards do not too popular in Indonesia, but it IS in other countries. And, postcards are the CHEAPEST authentic souvenirs you could buy wherever you are travelling!

From this, I get an idea to write about my postcards in Traveler's Passport. It might look so boring, but I hope through this post I could spread the "postcards fever" to all travelers around the world!

So, here is my first postcard in Europe - the one originated from Vatican. I sent it on July 2nd, 2012 from post office in Vatican.

The price for each postcard is around 50 cent - 1 Euro and the stamps costed around 1.60 Euro.



Since it was the first time, I sent three postcards to Indonesia and took picture from each of them! :)

Postcard #4 : Salzburg

Welcome May! We are almost in the first half of 2013 and it has been a year since my first visit to Salzburg - time flies! So, here is another postcard that I bought from Salzburg. :) I forgot about the price for each, but I think it should be cheap - around 30 - 50 cents. The Salzburg city at night, the Sound of Music filming location and the famous Mirabell Garden And not to forget, Salzburg is the hometown of the famous classic artist - Amadeus Mozart ! If you want to know more about Salzburg, you could read my previous post -  Berpetualang di Kota Musik, Salzburg .

All Around Europe : Local Airports Part I

This post is dedicated to all European budget airlines lovers! Airport - is the important place. This is where our travelling starts and ended. If we could not know where is the airport and how to get to the airport, than our travelling will be a mess. Since I travel a lot with European budget airline,  I have to invest more time to look for the information regarding the airports used in budget airports, especially the location and how to get there (most important!).  Most of the budget airline (esp. Ryan Air) are using local airports which is located far (away) from the city. Beside the location, these local airports also do not have varieties of public transportation access. Therefore, I decided to compile the information regarding these-out-of-nowhere local airports in Europe. I hope it could help all European budget airlines lovers! :) After did some listing, I realised there will be too much information here - that might make you explode. Therefore, I decided to d...

From Rome with Laugh and Sweat

Selamat pagi dari Roma!  Setelah menikmati sunset di gondola , bermalam di rumah musim panas , dan menghabiskan 6 jam tak terlupakan di kereta , sekarang saya akan menceritakan perjalanan di kota Roma - yang sering disebut sebagai ibukota dunia. :) Somehow, I just love this photo <3   *** Perjalanan saya dan teman-teman di Roma dimulai dengan pencarian Fontana di Trevi - Trevi Fountain or bahasa Indonesianya   air mancur Trevi .  Piazza Republica Dari apartment, kita menggunakan metro ke Piazza Republica , karena tidak ada metro yang langsung menuju Trevi. Alhasil, dari Piazza Republica kalian perlu berjalan sekitar 10 - 15 menit untuk akhirnya bisa sampai ke Trevi Fountain .  Trevi Fountain yang super keren <3 Jujur, saya langsung merinding waktu pertama kali melihat Trevi Fountain. It is realllllllyyy beautiful - bahkan lebih keren dari yang ditayangkan di TV atau film atau bahkan di setiap foto yang saya...
