Germany-Austria 2015 , Part 1

Once am in Dubai, one of my regular customer called me.

She said you wanna follow my school trip to Germany?
It was 4am in Dubai time, I was half awake while am saying YES.
What on my mind that time? School field trip, it's must be cheap.
New country, new stamp on the passport. What else I want? With closed eyes, I replied her whatsapp YES.

The next morning, I thought I was dreaming about it. But when I checked my conversation with her, what the effff? It's real!!
I checked on her date. OMG it's school holiday.
Where it's the most busiest period in a year. Busy, means money.
Germany or Money?
As avid traveler where insane is my middle name, I said who cares. Ado joki ado!

Then I asked, how much I need to pay? RM5k. What? Inclusive everything?
Yeap...OK am jumping up and down.
How many students?
15 of them and 6 are teachers including you.
Wow! Big group.
OK! Excited mode is ON.

Will we when to the big FAT CASTLE? She said YES.
Then I'm happy me and can't wait to be back at that time to start planning my day ahead. As am going  on a Spring- Summer trip. This is my 1st Summer experience.Yeay!

Anyway, alhamdulillah. Another journey to another country where I met new people and they are fuck*ng awesome!

Till then. Lemme checked on the photos, read again my notes & routes and pray that I've the time to write this journey of mine to be shared with all of you.

Dubai- Yearly Getaway

It's Dubai. It's more than 3 times I've been here.
This time?On April 2015.

It's hot, but still it's always one of my favourite place in the world.
I went there just to have my super day out from my hectic life here. Arghh gila baik simpan duit dari berjalan.Yea baik aku berjalan dari simpan duit  sekali mati tak dapat berjalan. Heheh.. aku kalau anak 5 tak berjalan kot. Priority untuk anak-anak.Ni aku sorang, aku mati sapa dapat duit aku?Heheheh..

I went there for a week. Just to meet all my friends there, makan-makan and yeah enjoying the cafes there.
Ada kawan duduk Dubai, bolehlah tumpang. Ehh ..rezeki aku lah.Kau takde dendiam nyah.Tak payah nak dengki sangat dengan rezeki orang. Rezeki kau rumah besar, anak ciak miak tu lagi best dari rezeki merayap aku ni , FAHAM.

No photos. It's Dubai.It's just a getaway. But this time I went to flea market, I went to many Malaysian who resides there, indulging myself with many types of desserts, OMG it's super heaven, and definitely will come again. Percaya tak, I still reserve to go on top to Burj Khalifa with someone special. Krikk..krikk..

Believe me, there is nothing much in Dubai, but as I always love the cafes and eateries selection there and it's HALAL, made me like I want to be in Dubai like many times in a year.
It's my choice and please don't judge. For some people saying you're not a traveler then, you are a tourist. Me? I'm who I am. Ada duit jalan, takde dok dendiam kan. Ehmm, still cafe hunting in all over Malaysia is my forte nowadays. Yeap foodie traveler, a traveller who bakes. It's moi!








India 2015, Part 5

Come on.

I'm forcing myself to write more and more in the blog.
Day 4 in Hyderabad. Yeap, we decided to go to heritage site today. Qutb Shahi and Golconda Fort.
Tell me peeps, it's like a dream comes true. I might not an antique collector, but am absolutely into heritage site. I just love to be and enjoy old buildings.

We went to Tomb Qutub Shahi 1st before we went to Golconda Fort.
Being us, we're crazily having photoshoot session with Toy instead of enjoying the historical buildings. It's huge. Super huge. Me, Sheema & Rose finished the tour till the end of the place. While Sara & Along having their own sweet time picnic under the big fat tree for Sara to do her sketching.

The tombs of the seven Qutub Shahi rulers in the Ibrahim Bagh (garden precinct) are located close to the famous Golkonda Fort in Hyderabad, India. The galleries of the smaller tombs are of a single storey while the larger ones are two storied. In the centre of each tomb is a sarcophagus which overlies the actual burial vault in a crypt below. The domes were originally overlaid with blue and green tiles, of which only a few pieces now remain.





We spend half of a day being there. Fees for Tomb is like 10 rupees per person. Then we get 2 autos for us to go to the next destination Golconda Fort.

Golconda Fort is a MUST VISIT place once in Hyderabad especially for the light and sounds show.
The place is super huge and to tell you the truth I've no mood to climb the stairs and be up on top of the hills. Panas ok panas. Kau bajet Europe nak suruh aku panjat castle lama? Kalau sejuk baq ang lama dah aku panjat. So I just lazying around waiting for Sara & Sheema went up on top of the hills. Me, Rose & Along just enjoying our time looking around.

Enterance fees 100 rupees.

Golconda, also known as Golkonda or Golla konda ("shepherd's hill"), a fort of Southern India and capital of the medieval sultanate of the Qutb Shahi dynasty (c.1518–1687), is situated 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) west of Hyderabad. It is also a tehsil of Hyderabad district, Telangana, India. The region is known for the mines that have produced some of the world's most famous gems, including the Koh-i-Noor, the Hope Diamond and the Nassak Diamond.


It's a huge place and definitely worth to visit. The light and show? Alahai kau ibarat derma darah kat nyamuk je bhai. They used Amitabh Batchan voice as the background and its not worth waiting as its too loud and too many mosquitos. Sumpah haram aku tak tak tau apa dia cerita masa dia dok bebel-bebel tu.




Last day in Hyderabad we went back to Charminar area to do some shopping. As Along is not feeling well, I went back early with her.

This trip was a memorable one. When I met 5 awesome people in my life and we speak the same language - traveling. If there is a chance to travel again with them, I'll say yes. Up to today we will still meet up and having our day out together. Till next trip insha Allah.

It took me nearly a month to write back in this blog. *bluergh*

Damn..yeah am f*cking busy nowadays to catch up life. August will be the sweetest month as it's when my birthday.

Now it is September. The ninth month of the year and I'm still stuck with my India's story.

Well well well..Day 3 here. So what's next? Ramoji Film City it is. Owh what's dat? *flipped hijab of mine*

It's a Universal Studio or Film City alike of Indian version.

It is so? I think it's more like Holywood movie set studio and it's damn huge.It's a film city dear. Can you imagine. Yeah please do so.They have this.Am so impressed.

For Bollywood lover like me *facepalm* this is the place for the shooting for some of the movie. Awesome!

We decided to ask the owner of the apartment to arrange for our transportation there as it's like out of town. It charged us like RM30 per pax for return journey.

So it's affordable with private coach of your own. Before we went there, we had an awesome breakfast like a king at one of the hotel there.

Yeap! When I said hotel, it's sound wow ( like orang kaya) but the the truth is,  this is the place where you can be assured about the quality and the cleanliness of the food! It cost us just for RM7 per pax and hell yeah the table are full with food ya'all. Am a happy me indeed!*joget, joget*

Check out here for more photos and details.

Ramoji Film City here I come.

The place is super huge. When I said it's huge its really huge. About 1600 acres. Welcomed by a big entrance and ticket cost us 800 Rupees, and it's damn hot that day, we decided to buy hat & cap to protect the beautiful face from the sun. *sigh*

Be inside it in a day, catch every shows, and then some of us split as the Q are damn too long and meet up at the vegetarian restaurant inside it for lunch. It was damn so good. I love it so much.





Tq Toy for the super awesome photos!




Then we went back to the city to try beriyani at one of the restaurant called Shahi and it's cost us like RM11 per pax with big portions of food. Again, yeap again, I can't resist the taste of Beriyani here. It's just like chunky heaven!

Dinner and back home to the apartment. I dunno what their activities as am too tired and off to my lalaland earlier as I've lotsa online classes to be entertained once am there.

India 2015, Part 3

26th March 2015


The moment you hear lotsa noises out there, you know the new day has begin.

We had our breakfast at the apartment cooked by moi, a simple one before we are going to have the local cuisine. Can't wait to explore the city today. We're going to the Charminar area, to see the Charminar the old city itself, then we're going to the Chowhamalla Palace.

We took Auto, for us to be around. This is when your bargaining skills is needed. Tawar oii selagi boleh. Merasa kecut pert ahkak naik auto tu. From Banjara Hills area to Charminar, it cost us around 150 rupees per auto.

Once there, it look like Chow Kit Road. Everything is there. At that time it was really hot in Hyderabad, I wish I'm somewhere else. Masha Allah, I'm sweating just like a p*g.






We tried the local food, for breakfast, then we tried the famous ice cream - Bilal Ice Cream, then we went to try the famous Beriyani too. OMG it's heaven.I'm not a fan, but, it was really super duper delicious. Can't beat anywhere that I've tried earlier in the world. To my Dubai friend, mai Hyderabad baru hampa tau, hat kat Naif tu tak sedap wehhhh, mahai, baik lat Hyderabad kedai grand nak mampos tapi MURAH!!!!

All the photos were Toy's artwork. I just wanna share about the WTF experience once am going to enter Mecca Mosque. They said am not properly covered. But when it comes to their people, eh, even wearing half naked saree they can entered the mosque. I'm pissed off. Grrrr...

The food here, for me? I love the atom, I love the morning bread whatsoever they called it, tosei bla bla.Beriyani?Yumms. Bilal Ice Cream, yup for them too sweet, for me yummeh!Seriously, I love Gobi Manchuria so much.Ok pitam lapar!!









We spend one whole day out since morning, as we took so much time of loitering around. We did our prayers at Bilal's Ice Cream. The owner let us to pray at his office. Above all, the 2nd day here is just to adjust, to blend with the locals, and to just enjoy the colours of Hyderabad.



Psst... Funny story once there, when Rose decided to tease a group of students that Sarah is a Malaysian artist.Amik kau...beratur amik autograph.
