That Winter, The Lake Freezes

Another random post and random title that is inspired from Korean drama with similar title - That Winter, The Wind Blows. (well, I know it is NOT similar, but whatever)

Möhnesee, Soest

From the title, I would like to share about small beautiful lake located near Soest, Germany. The lake is called Möhne - or in Germany it's called Möhnesee (see = lake, in Germany) When I visited this lake in February last year, the lake was freeze because it was Winter (obviously) and the weather was as low as -18 degrees. The government also stated that the lake was completely freeze and it was safe for us if we want to ride a bike on the lake. As an Asian who has never seen snow and frozen lake before, I find it was AWESOME. Too bad I could not found bike and tried to ride it ON the lake.


The Frozen Lake

Back to our lake, Mohnesee. It is located apprx. 10 km from Soest and could be reached by bus or private car. 

The location of Mohnesee

For bus, you could take bus R49 from Soest Bahnhof (Soest train station) and stop at the last stop (I forgot the name), but according to bahn.de, the bus stop is Korbecke Seestrasse. The journey will take around 30 minutes and when you have arrived in the bus stop, you have to walk straight for around 15 minutes to finally arrive in Mohnesee. 

On my way to the lake 

You could find a beautiful park with jogging track, houses and restaurant near the lake. I believe if you visit this lake in summer, this place is a great place to visit to spend your weekend. :) 


Since it was a sudden visit, I did not know what kind of activity that I could do nearby the lake except taking pictures of the beautiful view around me! 


Even though I could not find a lot of interesting thing, but I supperrr love this lake. The view is just amazing just like the one that I could only see while watching dramas. And because of my photographer-friend, it felt like my friends and I were making a photo-shoot for pictorial book. Haha 




Our sudden photo-shoot ! 


I hope you love this short random post!

Hostel Review : Camping Village Jolly

In June, I am planning to write a lot about my journey to Italy which was . . . exactly a year ago. So, as a starting post, I would like to share a hostel review of Camping Village Jolly . :)  Camping Village Jolly is a backpacker "home" for those travelling to Venice. It is located in the mainland and it takes around 15 minutes long journey from the nearest bus stop to Venice.  Camping Jolly to Venice on google maps The nearest bus stop is 15 minutes away from the Village, but if you are too tired to walk, Camping Village Jolly provides shuttle bus service. You have to check the shuttle schedule once you land your feet in Camping Village Jolly and book it right away - because it is limited! Also, you have to spend your Euro if you want to use the shuttle bus service. I forgot how much it is, but it should cost less than 5 Euros. :)  Note from me: if you take the night shuttle service, the bus stops in Tronchento and you could not go there without using...

3 hal yang wajib dilakukan di Venice

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 ...

From Venice with love

Seperti yang sudah saya tulis di pos sebelumnya , di bulan Juni ini saya akan membahas mengenai Italia. Di pos kali ini, saya akan membagikan pengalaman travelling saya di Venice, kota pertama yang saya kunjungi di Italia. Venice, 30 Juni 2012  Untuk sampai ke Venice, saya menggunakan pesawat Ryan Air dengan tujuan Venice Treviso. Dari airport Treviso, saya menggunakan bis airport ke stasiun kereta Mestre , yaitu stasiun kereta utama dimana kalian bisa dengan mudah menemukan kereta ke Venice. Perjalanan dari airport Venice Treviso ke Mestre memakan waktu sekitar 40 - 50 menit dengan harga tiket bis 7 Euro untuk 1 trip. Kalian bisa membeli tiket bis ini langsung di pesawat atau melalui mesin penjual tiket di airport. Sebenarnya, ada bis yang langsung menuju ke Venice, namun berhubung saya harus check-in dulu di Camping Jolly, saya menggunakan bis tujuan Mestre. Mesin penjual tiket bis airport Dari Mestre, saya mencari bis untuk menuju ke Camping Jolly. J...
