Hi, guys!
Went to This Is Me Wisata Selfie Bandung located at Jalan Cihampleas last week. Wisata Selfie = Selfie Tourism; seems to be on the rise these days thanks to social media. Basically is one building consists of backdrops for you to take pics. We went there on a Friday afternoon (around 1PM) so the place was basically empty.
Ticket was Rp 35.000 per person (around US$2.5) and as you can see from the map there are about a dozen spots you can take pics in. It opened at the end of 2018. I went in with very low expectations since I read their google review but still very curious about this place.
First of all, I want to apologize for the amount of my face you're about to see in this post.
There was a time when cruise holidays were the exclusive domain of the wealthy and elderly, yet much has changed since the turn of the century, and the modern cruise liner caters for families and solo travelers by providing a wide-range of fun-based activities on the ship. If you are new to cruising, here are a few common mistakes you should try to avoid.
- Trying To Do Everything - It is perfectly natural to get the most out of your hard-earned money, and with so much going on, a-state-of-the-art cruise liner really does have it all. If you want a relaxing holiday, then be selective about what you do, otherwise you will arrive back at port needing a holiday to get over the holiday. It will takes you a few days to discover your floating city, and rather than trying to get round all to all the many activities, be a little selective.
- Choosing The Wrong Cruise - Cruises are aimed at specific groups, and if you are the kind of person who likes to party the night away, make sure the cruise caters for the young person. If, on the other hand, you are looking for some real peace and quiet, then look for the cruise that attracts older people. There are cruise line operators with great deals for cruises from Melbourne in 2019, and with so many destinations and cruise styles, you can browse until you find the cruise that works for you.
- Failing To Do Some Online Research - Your chosen cruise will obviously visit many ports, where you have the option of stepping ashore or stay on the ship, and once you have booked your cruise, you should spend some time researching the local attractions at all the ports of call. This will enable you to plan your time on land, plus knowing a little about the places you visit will help you to appreciate your visit more. Here are a few more common mistakes people make when booking a cruise, which is recommended reading for all newbies.
- Assuming The Cruise Is All-Inclusive - Cruise ships offer the passengers many activities, and while some are complementary, many are not. It is very easy, for example, to rack up a hefty drinks bill, as you don't have to pay cash at the end of your drinking session, and you need to know how much each drink costs. Set yourself for daily budget for extras and don't go beyond that, which will ensure that you don't have a nasty shock when it comes to settling up.
- Flying In On The Same Day - If you're thinking about flying to the port on the same day the cruise departs, think again. Having to get you, your group, and your luggage to the port in good time can be stressful, and it only takes a short flight delay to leave you in a position whereby you won't make the cruise boarding online. Book a hotel and fly in the day before the cruise sets sail, that way you will not be pushed for time and can arrived at the port refreshed and ready for your holiday.
Hi, guys!
Went to The Pop Up Bandung located at Jalan Sukajadi (next to Thai Odyssesy) last weekend. The Pop Up Bandung is a multi brand concept store that carries local brands as well as a restaurant together with FatBox.Id. We went there on a Friday around 5PM so the place was rather empty.
Hi, guys!
It's been a hot minute since I did any restaurant review and altho this place is technically a coffee shop, Skema Coffee Archetype located at my hometown Bandung is quite the it place these days. I mean, as proven by the full house pictured above. We went there on a Saturday afternoon so I guess the full house was given.
Hi, guys!
We are now well past the halfway mark of the year. It is a bit crazy and sometimes overwhelming when I think about all the things I haven't accomplished. But anyway, the key is to live in the moment and just take it day by day. July have been disappointing, in terms of my life, but again, I'm just trying to focus on today. But last month did have its nice moments as proven by these favorites. Without further ado, here are a few of my favorite items in the month of July.
