Australians all let us rejoice!


Hey it's been a while... I kinda forgot about this blog sometimes haha, not good.. How's life there, good? Yeah.. mine's the usual.

So, I'm here to do another update. just want to share this video abt me and my australia trip last year. Yes last year, 2013, but better late than never right.. I combined all the videos i took when i went there, not much bcs i kept taking photos and forgot to record.

All i can say about australia is, amazing. The country's amazing, the accent's amazing, the people, the food, weather, views, everything. I totally in love with aussie. This was my first trip to a country that is not asian. Yes, the furthest i've been was only singapore that time. And my first long flight (8 hours from jakarta to sydney). So i was ecstatic because the experience was super different, the culture, the way they do things and bla bla bla is totally different.

People there were so laid back, chill and i like those type of ppl haha.. They would say hi to you, smile or simply saying good day or the weather's nice.. they don't know you ofc, but when you walk or you were in elevator and you exchanged look, they'd smile and say "hey how you doin'" I was like, whaaat... That never happened to me before haha. And of course i had to answer back awkwardly, stiff smile and say h-heyy with stutter...

I went there for 5 days with my cousins, one of my cousins lived there for 4 years when he was in uni so he kinda know what to do there or where to go, and i just followed all the itinerary he made haha. Also the trip was a road trip, and again, my first road trip. In conclusion everything was my first this, first that, which is good. I learned a lot about cool new stuff. So when people say you gotta get out more to experience things, they're damn right..

5 days was not enough obviously. The trip was jakarta to sydney straight, then road trip from sydney - batemans bay - mt.thredbo - glenrowan - melbourne, and then back home, transit in KL then to jkt. My other cousin lives in melb with his wife, they just had a baby, so we went there to visit them too. It was nice. I could write more but it will end up like a novel or something and i believe you guys don't want that yeah? haha so i'm gonna end here and let you guys enjoy the video..

Highlights of my trip were:
- 8 hours flight experience
- Road trip
- Australians and their accent
- Non asian culture (yes, i'm serious)
- MEATPIE. omg meatpie!
- Winter and snow. Yep! snow and the cold windy winter
- Had the best sushi in my life
- Meeting my niece, little eve for the first time
- Aussie's McDonalds
- Last but not least, get to know the place where most of my cousins (lots of them) stayed when they were in uni and talk abt it all the time
