The City of Volcanoes

Yayayayay another post about travelling. Kemain aku.
Okay this time is... Bandung!! 
Not sure if the blog title suits the location but mehh who cares.






First up, a trip to the South of Bandung, Kawah putih!
As the name says, its just a lake that's white, bubbling hot, and smells super strong of sulphur. Nice view and great for photographers i guess. 
Spent half the day there, and half the day stuck in traffic jam due to a flood D: And we managed to even catch a mini tornado that appeared legit right in front of our car :O






Next up, shopping!!! Hihi.
Went to Pasar Baru to look for our raya clothes and the kain choices there were so extensive. Cheap summoreee. Gonna buy my nikah dress there kalau ada rezeki ;)
We also went to this perfume shop, where they made cheaper alternatives of branded perfumes on the spot. It was so coool like titration and chemistry stuff and all. 
Also went to the supermarket, and hello there ABC sauces. I mean CHEAP ABC sauces. Okaylah all the things there quite cheap lah hor so i dont have to repeat myself. 







Next trip is to the North of Bandung.
Went to Tangkuban Perahu mountain, Floating market, Kopi Luak house and Farm House.
Imma just let pictures do the talking yea ;)









Nice food is nice. Cheap food is cheap. Yay!
First time trying yoshinoya and pepper lunch cos unfortunately SG's ain't halal.
Tries their local indon dishes also like murtabak manis, mee bakso and batagor. Their side chilli and soy sauces are to die for!!! Managed to bring some back to sg heheh.




Island Hopping

Okay, finally taking some time to blog about a recent trip.... to KRABI!!!
Also, a lot of firsts for this trip alhamdulillah heheh.



As always, loving the view from the plane. Took tigerair this time which is around a 2 hours flight.


We stayed at Peace Laguna Resort which has a 4-star rating. Okay lah the place, but i dont mind staying some place else if i were to come here again XD
Okay let's get on to the activities!





First up was.... ISLAND HOPPING!
Alhamdulillah, a wonderful first experience. The views were so masyaAllah and snorkelling experience was daebak! Minus the fact that i fell sick afterwards. 
We opt for the hong island tour cause its the only tour that lets you snorkel on the beach bank instead of open water. Yes, non-swimmers right here. Thankful that my travel partner has the same interests /fear/ as me XD




Aaaand i just realised i didnt take much pictures, mainly videos hahaih,
So next up was HIKING cum emerald pool cum ATV.
Didnt realise we signed up for hiking as well cos the trail to the emerald pool was super far. Complaining only cause i was sick that time and wasnt in the mood to walk long distance. Cheh yeah right. And the views again, very masyaAllah. Mane nak dapat kan kat singapore (': so cuci mata sikit kat sini.






Next up... FOOOOOD!!! yAYAYyAYAYAyy
Love love looove the infamous thai pancakes. Best to eat fresh and hot off the grill. The food there were cheaper than in SG, almost the same as msia as well. But to get cheap plus good food i guess you have to choose properly and look at reviews, cos we tried quite some disappointed dishes along the way. I only enjoyed shopping for snacks at their convenient mart heheh.


Sunset at the beach metres away from our resort. The picture doesnt do justice though hahah.
We only went for a 4d3n trip so not much to post, but still a pleasurable and memorable trip alhamdulillah (:
