Narita : Narita-san Shinsho-ji Temple


Ep.32
“Be an explorer. World is filled with wonder and magical thing.” – Flavia.
NRT – Narita, Japan.
26th-27th January 2012.
Me at Narita-san Shinsho-ji Temple.
It was still the coldest time in winter and I hate winter already. I used to adore all the winter fashion collection (it looks cool) and those layering. But to live in one place that have winter, I hate winter! I love summer (I’m a typical person that never satisfied). This time I got another Japan flight! Yeay! I knew it would be chill (read: freezing) by the time we arrived there.

Bali : Family Sweet Escape


Ep.31
“A vacation is like love - anticipated with pleasure, experienced with discomfort, and remembered with nostalgia.” - Author Unknown
DPS – Bali, Indonesia.
 4th-6th June 2010.

Mi Familia
It’s family vacation time! It was actually rather long ago. Back in 2010, an impulse decision of my Dad, made me awestricken by the fact that he want to go on a family vacation (something that I wouldn’t be expected from him at all). He called and asked whether if I am available or not (even if I didn’t, I’d make it available. It was such a rare opportunity). Last time we did a family vacation to Bali was like on 2004?? Can’t even remember.

Vancouver : Winter Wonderland


Ep.30
“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” - Mae West.
YVR – Vancouver, Canada.
16th-18th January 2012.
Me @ treetops adventure

It’s the coldest time in the winter and I got a perfect flight for this time of the year, Vancouver, where winter Olympic takes place. The weather forecast said that it should be snowing already by the time I arrived. What again? Snow? Yes! I finally able to see other wonders of God’s creations, icicles and snowflakes. I was so happy, but also worry. Why? The winter memory of Frankfurt (0-4°C) made me worry on how would it be in Vancouver, which (the forecast says around -2°C to 0°C in the city and -18°C on the mountain. Well, worry wont get you anywhere. Let’s just be there first and think about it later.

Dubai : Desert Desire


Ep.29
“It's no wonder most religions are born in the desert, because when men lay beneath that boundless night sky and look up at the infinite expanse of creation they have an uncontrollable urge to put something in the way” -Terry Pratchett.

DXB – Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
5th-8th January 2012.
Me @ Burj Khalifa
My first flight in 2012, which was also my first flight to middle east, was Dubai. Adoring the exotic middle east culture, also dreaming to become one of their airlines’ crew, got rostered for this flight made me super excited. This flight got a shuttle flight to Bahrain in the middle of it, and that made this flight more exciting. If you asked me why I would like middle east so much, well, I can’t really explain. It was just a little part inside of me always attracted to that side of the world (so not well-explained). Anyway, this time I would not have any flying buddy, but I will surely find one or two.

Paris : We will always have Paris!


Ep.28

“A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of Life.” -Thomas Jefferson.

CDG – Paris, France.
29th-31st December 2011.
Me and Eiffel Tower

Sunny Paris
Ammo!
It was almost New Year. And where would I spend my last seconds of 2011, on my flight back from Paris, France. It would be my last flight in 2011 and yet I got a flying buddy again, this time is Jezzy from Induction 28/2011. Missing my boyfriend birthday (which is on 30th December) was my biggest guilt of that time, but Paris is waiting to be explored. It was said that Paris is a golden flight, which will be only rostered like once in every 1 to 1.5 year. So definitely I was looking forward to do the flight to Paris, the city of love, romance, and finally (call me crazy) be in the town of the adorable Louie XIV.
