Verona

April 9, 2017 by runalittlestories

Here is a secret for you; Verona is geographically a city of love. No, its not from “Romeo and Juliet” or “Shakespeare”. It is from its city map. Look into my featured image; i left big mark there. I hope you see it. That was my first reaction when my Airbnb’s host explained city of Verona with me using her city map. She said, “Wow. I never thought like that.” It was almost dark when i arrived in Verona. Guided […]

Milan

March 12, 2017 by runalittlestories

I went to Milan using direct flight from Merignac Airport Bordeaux to Milan Malpensa Airport. I didn’t plan to spend much time here. Therefore, once i arrived in Milan, i went straight to Milano Centrale Station and deposited my backpack for about 12 hours. It was not even one day, only 12 hours before i departed to Verona. How could i experience Milan for only 12 hours? Lets start the clock now, on 5 pm in the afternoon. My intention was to […]

Bordeaux

February 27, 2017 by runalittlestories

My journey in Bordeaux started when i took a bus from Paris to Bordeaux. It was 8 hours bus. I chose bus simply because its cheaper than train. Indeed, it was a good decision. I met my first stranger here. Let’s call him Paul. He said “Hi” to me in French, then I asked if he spoke English. He did. He was Canadian who live in Quebec – a city that spoke Quebec French in Canada. I knew about Quebec because […]

The Beginning 

January 15, 2017 by runalittlestories

My first question into everything usually start with “Why?”. There is no right and wrong in life path, it’s usually depends on the intention behind it. For e.g. lying. It is a bad behavior, but how about white lies? What if you lied to your parent because you didn’t want them to be worried about you? And, it is because you know your parent had a lot in their plate already. Or, it was because they were terminally ill and […]

A glance of the Europe Trip

January 10, 2017 by runalittlestories

Two months before I departed, I resigned from my job. That’s why it was possible to do this trip. I won’t talk about the resignation topic in this post. It is a long story that require a new post. When I started the trip, I didn’t plan to spend 67 days, but 51 days. Why? A lot of things happened during the journey that made me decided to stay longer. I wanted to have more time in each city and […]

series : my spring in japan 11 (Finale)

June 11, 2016 by runalittlestories

22nd May I start the day on 11.30 by visiting Sensoji Temple. Yap, i am not an early riser. Believe me, i wish i am. I can imagine how productive i am if i can be early riser. But at the same time, i can’t imagine how tired i will be. It doesn’t matter. It is a holiday. I should be forgiven for this. Back to the topic. Sensoji Temple is located in Asakusa or practically in my hotel backyards. […]

series : my spring in japan 10

June 5, 2016 by runalittlestories

21st May.. To be frank with you, Tokyo was not on my top list destination to visit. Mostly because i feel that holiday is more about escaping everyday life where my everyday life is crowded bustling Jakarta city. Of course, compare to Jakarta, Tokyo is more comfortable and convenient. It has great public transportation system. And the most important thing is it is safe for woman to travel alone in Tokyo. You can not feel more safer when you have […]

series : my spring in Japan 9

April 16, 2016 by runalittlestories

20th May.. This is my last day in Kyoto and i haven’t done the two most popular things in Kyoto, tea ceremony and wearing a kimono/yukata, which i save for the last day. Like people usually say, save the best for the last. There are several places in Kyoto to do this. They also come with several variations, either only rent a kimono, witness a tea ceremony, and also both. Usually people renting a kimono for a day and walk […]
