Postcard #1: Vatican

By
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! :)

All Around Europe : Local Airports Part I

By
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.

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...

Koack... Koack... ada bebek di kota Boston

By
Koack... koack... Harus kita teriakan apabila berpapasan dengan  mobil Boston Duck Tours lainnya. Well , apa sih Boston Duck Tours? Sejenis tur dengan bebek? Pada awalnya, saya juga bingung mendengan Boston Duck Tours. Saya kira kita akan bermain semacam sepeda air berbentuk bebek di sungai Charles di tengah kota Boston. Ha. (efek tidak pernah google soal Boston sebelum kedatangan). Untunglah, "Duck Tour" di Boston tidak seperti yang saya bayangkan... Inilah bentuk si "bebek" yang mengajak saya berkeliling di kota Boston. Ternyata, si "bebek" ini merupakan kendaraan amfibi yang banyak digunakan pada masa Perang Dunia II. Sebagai kendaraan amfibi, kendaraan ini dapat berjalan di darat, dan juga di air. Jadi, tur kota ini akan menyusuri jalanan kota Boston dan melihat bangunan kota Boston dari sungai Charles yang membelah kota Boston. Menarik, kan? Yuk, ikutin rute dari Boston Duck Tour ini. Meeting point: Prudential Tower.   Tur saya d...
