The Traveler

Welcome travelers !

It has been a while since this blog exist in this cyber-world and I guess it's time to officially introduce to all of you
 the one and only author of Traveler's Passport,
a soon-to-be-a-grown-up-woman
 Ribka



She loves arts,
she loves photography,
she loves movies,
she loves drama,
she loves music,
she loves eating,
she loves reading,
she loves writing,
she loves talking,
she loves games,
she loves singing, 
and of course
she loves travelling.

Her very first big travelling year was none other than 2012 - the moment when she got a chance to go to Germany and stay there for 7 months - not for holiday, but as a part of her university program. HOWEVER, 7 months lived in Europe - she couldn't just stay quietly inside her small apartment every-single-day. It is a waste! 

Days passed and finally she decided to go out - leave her small apartment - whenever she got the chance - to experience the world outside her room.

7 months passed so fast and she has to gone back, left hundred pieces of her soul in Europe and went back to her boring interesting university life. 

It took only months after when she finally decided to write every single journey she did in Europe - because the journeys were too beautiful to be forgotten and too precious to be kept alone. She wanted to share it - to let people know that our blue earth is an amazing place for us to live and it is such a waste to not be able to see the beautiful-ness of each countries in every continents while we are still breathing!

And, that was the moment when she decided to make a new travelling blog - Traveler's Passport

Just like a passport, this blog contained all of her journeys - not only in Europe, but other countries which she has ever visited. 

Through this blog, she hopes that she could encourage people to make their own journey - encourage them to get out of their comfy bed - to see how wonderful the world outside is. Also, she hopes that she will have a bigger travelling experience in the near future!

and rests his head on his old familiar pillow."

All Around Europe : Grocery Stores

It is time to add another post for All Around Europe series . For today, I would like to review several grocery stores in Europe. The reviews will be based on my own Shopping O'meter scale and everything written here is based on my own experiences and opinions. :) #1 Shopping O'meter scale :  The place where everything could be found, touched, felt, seen,  and of course bought - whenever you need it, or not. :)  Comments :  Since Kaufland is only 5 minutes away from my office, I often do my grocery shopping here.  The shopping area is big.  The price is relatively low compared with others. The quality equals to what you paid. A suggested place to kill your boring time.  #2 Shopping O'meter scale :  Emergency grocery store for those who forget that shops are closed at 6 PM in Europe.  Comments : I often do my grocery shopping here because this is the last grocery store that still open until 10 ...

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 a...
