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! :)

Museum Vatikan yang tak berujung!

By
Setelah selesai mengikuti Scavi Tour di St. Peter's Basilica, saya melanjutkan perjalanan ke Museum Vatikan. Museum ini merupakan museum terpenting yang ada di Vatikan dan di tempat inilah kalian bisa melihat secara langsung lukisan Michael Angelo yang super terkenal, The Creation of Adam . Lukisan ini merupakan salah satu lukisan yang dilukis di dinding Sistine Chapel - ruangan terakhir di Museum Vatikan. Jadi, untuk kalian yang ingin melihat lukisan ini, sudah wajib untuk mengunjungi Museum Vatikan. :) *** Museum Vatikan terletak di sisi lain dari Excavation office dan memiliki pintu masuk terpisah. Jadi, saya harus keluar dahulu kemudian memutari tembok pemisah Vatikan untuk bisa masuk ke dalam Museum Vatikan. Walaupun negeri ini kecil, tapi perjalanan memutari tembok cukup menghabiskan tenaga. (Jangan lupa, temperature udara hari itu yang masih berkisar 34 - 36 derajat Celcius.) Setelah berjalan cepat (untuk menghindari terik matahari), akhirnya saya dan teman-tema...

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...
