Quality Suites Surabaya

... back into euro's it's insanely cheap. So yes, I'm guilty off hanging out in malls.

Try to calculate how many women work in one clothing store, like Mata Hari. If you can, you must be good at match. Take a look at all the different uniforms. Order a cup of coffee and sit down. If you bring along a good book, like I did, your day will fly by. It's not a touristy thing to do, but it's fun!

on 17-21 November 2009 I had the opportunity to visit Bandung in order to follow the workshop document management system in the telecom PDC 2009 bandung. My visit was the second time since 1994. departs from surabaya with executive class train Argo Wilis at 07.30 hours on Tuesday morning. expensive trains worth 205 thousand rupiah is very comfortable. The journey takes more than 12 hours and got on bandung at 20:00. so tired of it because it happens to rain heavily.

Make a list with destinations before you go to Surabaya for sight tripping. We forgot to do that and had to do it spontaneous.  We took a cab from 6am until 1pm for 260.000 IDR. (the price started @ 400.000 IDR) This price included a guide and driver, the guide spoke proper English.  We went respectively to ...

... Gili Air and looked forward to my time in Australia with my friends Brad and Esther. All of these thoughts invariably led me to reflect on my most memorable days and experiences in Asia. In chronological order, here they are: Top 5 Experiences in Asia 1) Sikkim, India: Trekking the Monasteries in the Eastern Himalaya 2) Phnom Penh to Preah Vihear, Cambodia ...

... verticale a l'exterieur. Je n'ai pas besoin de vous dire que j'etais concentre sur le chemin. Rejean souffrait de nervosite au debut et avancait a pas de tortue, puis il s'est resaisie et a bien continuer sans de probleme. Nous avons du faire 3km sur le tour en montant et descendant, comme les montagnes russe et ce, accompagner toujours de cette bonne odeur. Paysage spectaculaire. Vers la fin, le sentier rappetissant dangereusement pour mes nerfs. J'ai fini a 4 pattes ne ...

... plant as an accountant/translator and she took us to meet her ex-boss who now has his own business farming prawns. 1st we had to be the honoured guests in his (very basic) village home - sweet tea and tins of biscuits and bunches of bananas and tubs of fresh peanuts were pressed upon us as we smiled and nodded and asked intelligent questions through Lukis. The purpose of this visit was 2fold - we want to take the children to do ...

... s bed, and other family members bring them meals and stay to eat with them and take over the non-stop fanning of the patients to try to cool them down. I won't describe the state of the inmates - suffice it to say that we toured 4 of the wards, but these were only the worst cases who need to stay in hospital. In the mornings there are hundreds who come in for chemotherapy treatment and then return home. Sobering huh?

... I guess either the driver or car had to make the journey anyways. The travel agent said we were lucky, but I'm sure if he could have made more money putting us on a larger bus he would have done that. Next we visit the amazing ruins of Borobodur and Pramabanan in Java then off to the Tea plains of Java before we fly out of Jakarta to KL in Malaysia to meet up with Eugene and Sue again... http://www.buddhanet.net/boro.htm

... I finally got to the top and saw the white puff of smoke from the mouth of the crater. I walked clockwise around the edge of the crater. I finally got to the highest point and I realized I was by myself. For a brief moment this place and moment is mine. I felt like standing on the top of the world but within inches from the edge of the universe. I thought if I fell no one would find my body. It's a good way to go, fast and painless. The air was ...

... in Executive Class where we read our books and looked out of the window, and then took a becak to our chosen hotel which was fine, although certainly on the basic side and not particularly geared up to Western tourists (most of them being more sensible than to travel Java and heading straight to Bali!). We'd indulged in the breakfast at the Mandarin Oriental that morning so efficiently that even by 7.30ish that evening, we still weren't particularly hungry but ...
