So freaking excited

I have always been excited of going to places I don't know for a while now, starting from where I am going to Seoul in 2012, and welcomed pretty warm and all, there. I am still a poor college student, and at that time cost have been my biggest challenge to go as I wish.


Now when I have been able to collect money, I am traveling... to Europe!

Yup, Europe. My first paying-myself trip is to Europe! Can't believe myself either. I have never imagine that I would go to Europe as early as in my fresh graduate year. I mean, only 1 year into the workplace and already Europe? Hahaha, what's that? Europe is expensive! :'). Considering my country and it's average salary, it's out of my reach.

But thanks to one of my best friend from high school who are taking her master in Germany, I am determined to go to Germany before she graduated, and... it become a full fledged plan to tour Europe! It thanks to her that I made a plan tight enough to collect it before her graduating deadline (hehe).

And it's on different contingent with my country. This is the first time I would travel outside Asia. The farthest I have reach is South Korea.

And
What makes me more excited is that...

Venice has always been my top destination to go! I really want to go there, but I always think it is still far ahead in the future. But no. I would be able to visit it this year. So close to me.

The Airplane ticket is bought. I bought it from Qatar Airlines. Expensive, I know, but at the time I really just want to make International Youth Traveling Card without hassle. And now... I don't think I regret my decision.
Now, as my trip is in December, I will prepare for it one by one, and update it here. Easy to track, and maybe useful for you guys :)
Bye for now~

Kopi Bar

I have been wanting to go here to eat based on a blog entry I read several weeks ago. And... Guess what? The menu that make my saliva drooling is gone, the yellow rice set. I was quite disappointed, since I saw it on the 'menu' tab on zomato too. Oh well, it turn out that they change their entire menu, or so I think. There are a lot missing dessert that I want to try, too.

I ended up ordering Apple pie and Iced Red Velvet. I really want to try their coffee, but for me coffee is best serve hot, and I need a cold one now. Anyway. Because the price of the apple pie is quite in the high end for the price, I expect to find a slice of 'proper' apple pie, or a personal sized apple pie. But it was a... Small sized apple pie, damp, taste like refrigerator (I think they are checking their freezer when I ask whether they have it or not) and it's hard to separate because it's so sticky. In other way, it was disappointing. Add that it takes such a long time for a pre-cooked meal. I don't usually be able to know with fresh/frozen food only by eating!

But their drinks, ummm... Just the Iced Red Velvet could cover up all of it for me. It's so delicious, I am falling in love at the first sip. Creamy, thick, with adorable sweetness, not too sweet and not like diet soda either. 

There are outdoor seating, TV and Playstation that I don't touch, but I realized there is a bookshelf under the cashier. I love their books selection. A mix of 'pop' and serious. Not only serious books to make it like high ended elite coffee shop

Afterall, it's a good place. It is a bit pricey for college student, but worth the price. The atmosphere is nice, and the service is not bad ,:))
