Traveler's Passport

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...

Back to All Around Europe series! For today's post, I would like to share the information about the train in Germany as train is one of the main public transportation in Germany and it is always essential for us, travelers to know the transportation systems in our destination country. Driven from my experiences, I got confused about the types of trains in Germany because there are many types of train in Germany and I did not know what are the differences between each of them. Therefore, I hope this post could help you to get to know the types of trains in Germany! The Hohenzollen bridge, Cologne, Germany. ICE (Inter-City Express) The fastest train in town - with top speed up to 300 km/h!  You could choose this train for a long journey travelling because it is very comfortable (especially 1. class) and the train only stops in the main train station. With a great service, no wonder if you have to pay more for ICE tickets compared with other train types. Howev...

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 ...

Following my previous post regarding Budget Airlines in Europe, I would like to share information for Budget Land Transports in Europe. Since it's LAND transport, it will include bus, train, and car. BUS My - most recommended bus lines in Europe is EUROLINES . Why?  Because Eurolines connects every countries and big cities in Europe! So, you could just easily choose your destination country in Europe, and believe me - you could find there's Eurolines Bus go to that country! Beside of this, Eurolines often gives lots of offers to certain destination - where the lowest fare could be 9 Euros for 1 way !! However, you should buy this via online through Eurolines website or could visit their office in the nearest city/country. The last reason that could add your interest in Eurolines are their good services, comfortable seats, and overnight schedule. The overnight schedule usually available for more than 6 hours journey, like when I went to Krakow from Vienna. My b...

Another All Around Europe post!  In the last post, I shared about my favorite food in Europe - Doner and today, I will share information about budget airlines.  Just like Asia has Air Asia as its infamous budget airline to travel to countries in Asia, Europe also has its own budget airlines which are cost friendly and of course, saving time!  There are a lot of budget airlines in Europe, but I will mention 4 budget airlines which I am familiar with.  Online Booking My travel besties in Europe! I forgot how I could know about Ryan Air, but I do remember that when I heard about Ryan Air and check on their website, I found the super cheap flight ticket to Greece and ended up buying the ticket on that day! Since that day, Ryan Air website always be the first page I opened on my computer. Haha As far as I know, this airline always offers the cheapest price - especially when you book the ticket 2 - 3 months before the flight. It can be ...

My all-time-favorite food in Europe :  Döner ! The appetizing Doner Teller mit Pommes! It feels funny to say that Doner is my favorite food while in Europe. Some of you might thing "WHAT?" or "HOW COME?" or maybe "She has a weird taste." Well, you are right. There are LOTS of delicious foods here - so many cheese, bacons, sausages - but despite all of those MANY delicious European foods - I choose  Döner ! Why I choose  Döner ? There are certain reasons for that. 1. It's cheap!  The most common reason. Hahaha. It is the cheapest food - in the whole Europe. (Maybe to be exact, in all European countries I've visited) Usually, by spending 2 - 5 Euros you have already got a tasty Döner  Even, in Vienna, I found the cheapest Döner ever - it's only 1.50 Euros and tasted GREAT! 2. It is BIG. Well, for me - as an Asian. One portion of Döner is equal to 2 normal meals. In the early week, I couldn't eat the whole Döner a...
