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! :)

3 hal yang wajib dilakukan di Venice

By
English version :  3 Things You Have to do in Venice Kota kecil yang terletak di kepulauan kecil di bagian sebelah utara Italia yang terpisah dari pulau utama Itali. Saking kecilnya, kalian tidak dapat menemukan kendaraan bermotor di tengah-tengah kota. Alat transportasi yang biasanya digunakan oleh penduduk adalah perahu dan transport air lainnya. Jalan tersempit yang saya temukan di Venice Venice merupakan sebuah kota yang dihubungkan oleh ratusan kanal yang tersebar di seluruh penjuru kota. Sebagai tambahan, jalan setapak kecil pun membatasi setiap bangunan tua yang terlihat antik dan berwarna warni. Itulah sebagian keindahan dan keunikan dari Venice yang juga menjadi salah satu tujuan wisata bagi wisatawan asing maupun lokal. Untuk saya personal, Venice merupakan salah satu kota terindah yang pernah saya kunjungi selama saya di Eropa. Venice is just too beautiful to be true. Banyak hal yang dapat kalian lakukan di kota kecil ini namun, ada 3 hal yang wajib ...

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. 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...

A beach called Dreamland

By
Let's take a break in Europe and go back to Indonesia. As you can see (perhaps), 2013 is not my travelling-year, so it is SO HARD for me to move on from the memories in Europe a year ago. But, fortunately I could visit Bali (again) 2 weeks ago and had a short trip to Dreamland , a beach located 15 minutes away from my house (but, I have never beeeeennn there!). Honestly, I am not so into to the beach - because beach only has 1. sands, 2. saltwater, 3. sun (a very HOT one). So, yeah, when I suddenly planned to go there, I did not have a big expectation. I just, go. And this is what Dreamland offered to entertain my eyes, my soul and my mind. Beautiful. Dreamland, paradise in Bali :) I am sorry that I underestimate your existence, dear Dreamland. :) So, are you excited and want to get more information about this wonderful beach? You visit the right place! Sands, rocks, seaweeds are best experienced with BAREFOOT :)  *** Dreamland is located inside the P...
