All Around Europe : Döner

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 at once. I have to eat it at least twice - because it's too big. OF COURSE, it changed and as the times goes by 1 Döner is not enough for me. Hahaha.

3. Doner can be found everywhere! 
You could find Döner in train station, narrow street, city center, shopping mall, and other places! Döner is my first choice whenever I travel - most of the time.

4. Doner can be eaten while walking. 
The best option for travelers. I often buy doner whenever I change train and only have like 10 - 15 minutes left until my train departs. Döner Durum is the best choice to be eaten while travelling!

5. The unchanging taste. 
This is important - especially for you who do not like to eat weird or doubtful food. It often has similar taste - slightly salty, sweet or else. But, for me - it tastes similar no matter which country you are.






Since you have known my reason to choose Döner over others European foods - now I would like to  introduce you to the Döner family!

Here are the DONERS!


  • Doner Tasche 

The most common doner - and also the first doner I have ever tried in Europe. The sliced meat/chicken/lamb is placed on the pita bread with the salad, sauce and mayo. You could add french fries to the Doner in exchange with salad. The normal price is between 2 - 5 Euros.

  • Doner Teller 

This is the type of doner that is served on plate (German: teller). It consists of sliced meat/chicken/lamb with french fries and salad, sauce and mayo. For one portion of doner teller, you have to pay between 5 - 10 Euros.

  • Doner Durum / Yufka 

This is the Doner that you usually find in Indonesia - and my favorite type of Doner. It consists of sliced meat/chicken/lamb and also salad, sauce and mayo and WRAPPED with the thin bread. Since it's wrapped like a cylinder, it is the easiest doner that can be eaten while walking. The price of Durum is between 2 - 5 Euros. Usually, it is 50 cents more expensive than Doner Tasche.

  • Pom-Doner

Or you could say as pommes-doner. Pommes means french fries in German. So, you could tell that pom-doner is the doner that is served with french fries. So, it consists of sliced meat/chicken/lamb with salad, sauce and mayo and french fries. All of these will be put inside a box. For the price is between 2 - 5 Euros.







They are the DONERS I have met in Europe. Send my greetings when you meet the DONERS in Europe.
Say to them "PLEASE COME TO INDONESIA!"

Because I really AM craving for these doners right now!! 

(Again, it is a HUGE mistake to write about food at night. But, I have never learned. ;p )

NB: Do NOT ever compared the taste of Doner in Europe with Indonesia. It has HUGE difference in taste!

All Around Europe : Local Airports Part I

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 divide the

Museum Vatikan yang tak berujung!

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

3 Langkah Hemat Jalan-Jalan di Stockholm

Ini dia, kota TERBAIK dan juga TERMAHAL yang pernah saya kunjungi di Eropa. Stockholm - ibukota dari Swedia dan juga sering disebut sebagai ibukota dari negara Scandinavia. Negara Scandinavia merupakan gabungan dari 4 negara yang terletak di Eropa bagian utara, yaitu Denmark, Finlandia, Norwegia dan Swedia. Ke-empat negara Scandinavia ini merupakan negara yang kaya raya dan juga memiliki biaya hidup yang lebih tinggi apabila dibandingkan dengan negara Eropa lainnya. Hal inilah yang membuat sebagian orang enggan untuk mengunjungi negara ini - kebanyakan mereka berpikir kalau berlibur di negara Scandinavia akan menghabiskan tabungan mereka dalam sekejap. Berangkat dari fakta ini, saya ingin membagikan pengalaman saya berlibur ke Stockholm dengan dana super tipis tapi membuahkan pengalaman travelling yang amat mengesankan. Berikut 3 langkah hemat untuk jalan-jalan di ibukota Scandinavia - yang terkenal mahal - ini. 1. Menginap di HOSTEL yang dekat dengan pusat kota  Sebagai
