Beyond The Blog
Two weeks had past so quickly I woke up today in Perth already. It felt like it was only yesterday I was stuck in traffic jam in Jakarta, desperately wanting to pee, in a taxi that smells like feet, helplessly looking at my watch, worrying I would be late for my appointment. Two weeks had [...]
Hello From Down Under (1) – The Journey
The confirmation finally came when I was still enjoying my holiday in Indonesia. Yes, we’re moving to Perth, Australia (not Perth, near Glasgow!). The date was finally agreed. Yes, it’s 26 November. Lots of emails went back and forth about how we get there (they sent us a booking with Qantas, I wholeheartedly refused – [...]
New Home… Almost
The date is set, the flight is booked. We officially have only less than 1 month in Aberdeen. By end of this month we will start our new journey in Australia. The movers will come to pack everything away a few days before departure, and the list of what we can bring and how we [...]
Surprises & Secrets
I had planned my trip to Indonesia oh-so “quietly” I only told some people that I was coming. The mission: to surprise my mom who thought that she is not going to see me until next year or after I move to Perth, and to surprise R & E who are dear friends and were [...]
An Overdue Update
Yes, it has been 19 days since my last posting, but I wouldn’t bore you with excuses. Instead, here is some stuff I could share by now: Moving – again! This is the first time I officially confirm that mr.mck and I are going to move down under. The news, of course, has been circulated [...]
Gone Missing, Again
If you read this today, I would have been somewhere in the sky between Aberdeen and London. Hope you will forgive me as I am away – again. This time mr.mck and I will explore the south part of UK but I will be staying in London for several days first before he joins me [...]
Why We Travel
I’m just back from 3-week holiday with the girls, conquering 3 countries and 9 cities, but I have been planning to go away again by end of this month. This time I do have a valid reason, a friend will have her baby baptized somewhere in England, and mr.mck and I are invited to witness [...]
Back!
I haven’t been blogging for about a month, I know. After my last thread was published, Nonie came over, then Dinar and Prila the next day, then I took the girls out for distillery tour at Glenfiddich where they have developed a taste for a very expensive whisky (no less than 35 years old) and [...]
Rock Star Hotel
Not just money, this hotel requires a specific profession for its guest to stay in their posh room: a rock star! And apparently, ‘anything goes’ in this hotel. clipped from news.sky.com At prices starting at £175 per night for the tiniest crash pad, to £3,500 for a garden suite, this 30-room hotel is not for [...]
I'm Still Here
Forgive me readers for I have sinned. I have been guilty letting my other passions took over, and before I knew it, 6 weeks has passed and I have only produced one thread. However, despite lack of postings, I have actually been taking part of 2 activities which still involve blogging. One is as the [...]
