#bylandtothailand trip


Oookayy I don't have time to blog my trip day by day anymoree. Office work makin banyak, trip makin panjang (sikit), weekend pun rasa macam makin pendek :/

Brief of my spontanious itinerary trip, I'm glad Aina was available during this time too, aku memang tunggu je bila budak ni cuti sem sebenanye, hahah!

We really no plan for this time trip, sebab 2-2 seakan paham & sangat busy! So we just make rough research & decided to buy bus ticket few days before the trip. 

At first we never plan to go to Bangkok, probably stop by any train station yang kami rase menarik untuk di explore, decision nak ke Bangkok dibuat setelah berada didalam bas, hah hah ha~!

Perhaps next time can extend train trip to Chiang Mai :-D

End of trip was awesome too, cause I spend a night in Georgetown, Penang, tido hostel yang sangat best & make few new backpacking friends :-D

Interlude first half 2016

Wey dah bulan Jun bulan 6 2016! 

Laptop asyik repair repair repair repair, apekebenda dari bulan 11 sampai bulan 6 ni ha?? T_T

Handphone dari kena curi bulan 7 tahun lepas, pakai henpon koboi 2 bulan, lepas tu beli baru, lepas tu masuk sungai, lepas tu beli baru lagi (adoidoidoi)

Lepas tu external drive aku rosak bulan lepas, habis hilang semua artwork dan gambar travel dari tahun 2013 yg dah di compile cantik-cantik, hmm 
*ntahlah nanti lah fikir nak selesaikan macam mane T_T, fikir sangat buat sakit hati

BY THE WAY dalam kesibukan mencari rezeki dan menguruskan emosi dan kehidupan harian dan cubaan tidur yang cukup (lol); 
aku berjaya buat 4 trip dalam period 8 bulan ni:

• Miri, Sarawak (New Year hol)
• Bangkok, Thailand (Chinese New Year hol)
• Perth, Australia (Labour Day hol)


Wow nampaknya aku berjaya menggunakan cuti-cuti umum dengan bijak pada tahun 2016 ini, and of course everything done within allocated budget! On the bright side, I manage to grab good price flite tix or find other best alternative to travel in a cheap way. Yosh~!

Slowly nak jot down journey takut lupa, sekarang memori dah tak kuat macam muda-muda dulu :-(
