Belgium

Belgium, the country across the Netherlands border, I'm lucky that I lived in Breda, so it's really close to Belgium border, and I can just take the train and I'll be there in an hour or so.

What to love about Belgium?
  1. Belgian Waffle, of course you gotta try the belgian waffle when u're in Belgium, my favorite is Leonidas, but the one that you find in Station is good as well
  2. Forever 21, it's one of the store that you can't find in NL, so going to Belgium can be one of your shopping alternative
  3. Beautiful Old Buildings, the buildings in Belgium is kinda similar with the one in Amsterdam. but it's still worth to visit or just for a weekend break

How to get there?  

From NL you can just take a train or bus to Belgium. I preferably train because it's faster, and if you're under 26 you can use the "Young People" tariff, which is cheaper than normal tariff. To buy a train ticket you can just go to the train station and buy it from the machine or just go to the ticket and service counter and buy it there (with extra 0.75euro cost if I'm not mistaken). Or you can buy it online and take the benefit of Go Pass Roosendaal, a one way ticket which only 7.20 from Roosendaal to any station in Belgium.

Where to stay?
Well, there are lots of hostel and hotel in Belgium, but I prefer to do a day trip if I went to Antwerpen, because it's only an hour from Breda (my home). You can just google to find a cheap hostel or try couchsurfing

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...
