Being an Au Pair

It's been a while since the last time I post anything on this blog. So long story short, I finally made it.. Here I am in Netherlands, I arrived on February 4th. It was the coldest day on winter, they even said that the airport was closed a day before I came because there was too much snow. First day I came here Storm (Soon to be my little prince) greet me with his smile. That day I know, and I promised myself that I'm gonna have fun here and I'm gonna enjoy the most of it.

So, some of you probably question why I want to go all the way to Europe just to be a babysitter. Well, for me it's more like the cheapest way to travel Europe, with a minimum cost I can stay in Netherlands for 1 year, and travel on my free time, which turns out that the family give me lots of it. I'm lucky I have 3 days of a week Friday - Sunday, so I can travel around Netherlands, or maybe go somewhere close.

Banyuwangi.. (and a little bit of Surabaya)

It's been a while since the last time I updated this blog. This time I want to share about my trip to Banyuwangi , East Java. The Regency of Banyuwangi is located at the easternmost end of the Indonesian island of Java. It serves as a port between Java and the island of Bali. Banyuwangi is separated by Strait of Bali from Bali. Why Banyuwangi? I know it's not one of the main tourist destination, but apparently it has a lot to offer, i t is surrounded by mountains and forests to the west; by sea to the east and south, and not to mention cheaper accommodation compared to Bali. You can go to Banyuwangi using airplanes, or just like me go to Surabaya first and then drive around 5-6 hours to Banyuwangi. I used tour operator Amazing Banyuwangi for this trip, but apparently they are very unprofessional, they tricked us so we ended up had to pay more for the "All Inclusive Private" trip they offered on the website. Anyway long story short let me tell you about how gorgeous...

Summer Trip (Final Part - Prague I'm in Love)

Prague, the capital and largest city of Czech Republic. It's also the historical capital of Bohemian proper . Situated in the north-west of the country on the Vltava river, the city is home to about 1.3 million people, while its larger urban zone is estimated to have a population of nearly 2 million. The city has a temperate oceanic climate, with warm summers and chilly winters. Not much people know about Prague, that's why they questioned me why I would go to Prague all by myself, well after this post I'm sure you will love Prague as much as I do. Day 16 - Finally Prague After a sleepless night at Milan Airport, and a morning flight to Prague. I finally arrived in Prague, one of my favorite city in Europe.    Oh yeah, you don't have to change the currency (EUR to CZK) at the airport, you can just use the ATM, and take money from there (It's cheaper considering the fee they asked in airport). But since I didn't know it before I get a pretty good rate at Milan...
