16th May 2015.. I woke up at 10.30 AM this morning. 8 hours sleep for two days seems justifiable. Olivia says, “Good Morning, sleepyhead, do you plan to sleep all day?”. I just laugh. I gather all my souls in order to make a proper goodbye to Mellisa and Olivia. Both of them leave the guesthouse today. Especially to Olivia, after i heard her story, i wish her a proper good luck. Hopefully, the life give us chance in future […]

I arrive in Kyoto on 11.30 AM. The last-minute accommodation i booked has check in time before 12.00 or above 16.00. I don’t think i will arrive there on time. So, instead, i decide to rent a locker in Kyoto station. I found it straight away. The cost is 500 yen. The problem is i need to pay with 100 yen coin, which i don’t have. Usually if you exchange your currency, the money exchanger will give you 10,000 yen. […]

14th May 2015… Maybe this is a bad habit – or simply efficient, i often pack on the night before (if i take day flight) or on the day (if i take night flight). My essential packing items are clothes, personal unique amenities, and emergency kits (from band aid to aspirin). Simple, right? I think thats traveling should be. Other than packing, i am still working and i need to meet some deadlines. Today. Yes, today, in public holiday. After […]

I visited Japan on last May and i had a great time. One of the input i have from friends is they want to know more the story during traveling, not only the travel itinerary. Therefore, i present this edition as a series, as my appreciation for you who always support me. Don’t worry! I will post more compact to-do-point edition for travel itinerary and tips. Hopefully, all of you enjoy it! Some time in January 2015…  It starts here. The […]
