Life in another land

mosh-mosh

maap ler, cerita ke boracay tu half way ..ahhaa..sampai day 2 je ha, lg 3days tu den dh lupa. Klu ingat nnt,den upload ler entry tu ...wee

this time around, me nk upload mengenai my life in another land called "Thailand"...eceh-eceh..jiran sebelah je pun, cross boarder  like an hour away. *jeling-jeling

Tempat den bermaustatin ni namanya songkhla, its in the southern part of Thailand. Songkhla ni ramai umat islam and senang nk cr makanan halal.. cuma kena tgk kat stall tu tanda-tanda or signboard halal, than u can eat =)

So far our stay here is very welcoming and warm .. sampai2 je,. ada je aktiviti and jumpa kwn2 kat sini... thats the beauty of asean, they love to help each other out. tu mmg sikap yg ambe nk tanam dlm jiwa ni afta this.. bg den la kan, dorg ni sgt respect kepada tetamu. yup..respect. tak perlu benda lain pun.cukup.

Apa kejadahnya i buat kt songkhla sampai sebulan lebih kan? sbnrnya kami terlibat dalam program teaching enhancement .. kira uni saya ada MOU ngan Uni rajamangala ni utk pinjamkan student pHD mengajar di sana selama 6minggu. Jadinya, me n kwn pun setuju nk g. Ngoyan kenapa setuju nak g tu xyah cakap la *gelaktutupgigi ..

Now dah masuk week 3 dah.. so far okay. makanan senang nk dpt, ada yg murah, ada yg mahal (ni slalu terjadi biler kena ketuk sbb foreigner), tapi overall okay, makanan dia sedap2.. sesedap mana pun, malaysian food ttp dihati (gitew..) *sobs

So far mengajar tu okay tp challenging dari segi bahasa. Students kat thai ni english dorg sgt limited. jadinya, den mengajar subject engineering yg banyak gak la pengenalan engineering..kan ke x jenguh nk convey ke mereka..pasrah je la..ada je students yang pandai cakap malay,tp seketul je la..yg lain totally thai... nak laju mengajar pun susah sbb dorg akan request "teacher..slow-slow".. celah mana nk kejar tu ..cer citer cer citer *urutkepala ... tp overall okay sgt dorg.

emjoy ler pic kami berjln-jln di songkhla n hatyai in the first weeks and so on.

The Journey - Day 2: Boracay Trip

salam..

mosh-mosh =) baru nk sambung day 2 nya trip ^.^ ..maap la, panggilan dunia bnyk sgt ha..kay2,moh la

untuk day 2 lak..ni dikira easy breesy day la utk kami..yy? first, kami ada ample time there and got lots of times to explore and snap2.. jadi for 2nd day ni, mission kami utk cr apa aktivity yg boleh dilakukan di island ni selain misi utama kami iaitu diving. 

Kami berjln dr tmpt penginapan kami tu (station 3) sampai la ke station 1. along the beach, mmg bnyk la pinoy2 aka org yg akan offerkan pelbagai package activity. And surprisingly, beach dia ada algae, marine algae kot, dalam bahasa kasai rumpai laut pun boleh la sbb dorg ni satu family ...cer cek gmbr kt bwh

Untuk yg activities package tu, NASIHAT DEN: mohon reky smua yg available, klu boleh, g yg berdaftar nya, meaning jgn main sapu je sapa2 yg approach u with a good deals on various of activities. Macam kami, kami ada ambik pakej under one this pinoy boy. dem, kena tipu *jeling2 ... pakej yg kami ambik tu:

Price : 2,500 Peso

Pakej activities : ATV, Skyline, Helmet diving and island hoping 

Nampak mcm bnyk n berbaloikan? actually x pun!

Bedah Siasat:

1. ATV : atv dia ni atas jln raya n like 15mins je untuk ke skyline. 

    my view: Not worth it!!!!

2. Skyline : cer google skyline canne? haaa...best kan?well, NOT! more to flying fox tahu? agak kecewa tapi okay la ..

   my view : kecewa sbb ingat mcm superman tapi..... .... ...

3. Helmet Diving : okay, yg ni best. tapi org yg kami deal tu kata nk bg VCD gambar kami helmet diving, tp sampai sudah MIA #hembushidung

   my view: okay la since its fun..

4. Island Hopping : okay, ni mmg bodoh. bodoh!!ooppss...=D dh la before nk naik bot kena byr boat fees 300peso and while u snorkeling tu, ada pakcik dtg naik sampan kecik kutip duit snorkeling fees 20peso each. bodoh kan? kt sini mmg kami kena paw habis.. 

Lesson Learn:

before nk seal the deal ngan mana2 pinoy or org regarding activities package, make sure the amount that u pay tu INCLUSIVE transportation naik tricycle from ur place to the pick point, segala fees berkenaan boat fees and snorkeling fees as well as entrance fees. Tanya and confirmkan sbb kami dah kena. kami ingat package kami tu smua inclusive, rupanya ada hidden charge!! tu yg kami hangin sokmo =)

the best part day2 ni ms tgk sunset atas yach ... feel like rich people uolls =)) harga naik yach ms sunset ialah 1000 peso. jadi 1000 peso tu bahagi utk 3 org... rsnya boleh dptkan harga lg murah, cuma kena pandai bargain laaa...

oh lupa nk cter, pagi tu kami g bekpes kt the only kedai halal located kt old talipapa..the only one tahu? luckily, kdai halal tu like xsmp 5min punwalking distance dr tmpt penginapan kami..heaven =) ... taste? well..masakan cili api dia okay, boleh diterima, tp masakan kicap dia is a no no..menyengat sgt, cannot go.  tp if uolls dh alang2 kt situ, g la try =) . 

Location: Old talipapa stall no 18.  Halal Food Restaurant (gmbr dibawah)

Abg seksi dlm gmbr tu pemilik warong ni, sgt friendly and nice. Nama dia ala2 arab gitew..lupa sudah. tp skali pndg dlm gmbr ni mcm Norman Hakim pun ada (_._')

My first halal food in the island =) Harga 95peso 

Kalau susah nk cr, bertanya la kat gerai2 yg ada akak muslim tu location stall halal okay =) thats how we got the place anyway =)

Pada malamnya pula, lepas penat beryach bagai, kami blk bilik, rest and kluar blk for night drinks. and lepakking kt laut sambil2 dengar lagu2 oldies gitew. At night, hampir smua gerai tepi2 boracay tu akan ada live band.. best =) naknya biler dorg nyanyi lagu2 oldies yg feel2 gitew.. layan =) overall IM LOVING IT!!

Thats it for day 2

The Journey - Day 1 : Boracay Trip

Assalammualaikum ^.^

2 hari sudah sy balik dr bercuti ke boracay. okay, entry kali ni of coz la nk membebel pasal percutian tak seberapa sy tu...

Al-kisahnya

Pada 27feb tu, sy bergerak dr rumah kul 8am la jugak memandangkan flight kami kul 10.50am, so we have ample time to get ready and pack la kan. me seperti biasa, mlm b4 nk flight br packing..hasilnya? packing brg yg sgt x efficient =D since kami naik air asia, so double precautions kena ambik sbb mn la tahu dtg angin dorg tetiba nk cek berat hand luggage..haa.. *neveroverconfidentwhenitcomesdealingwithairasia .. b4 gerak ke airport tu, sempaat me telan nasi berlauk kt umah, al-maklumla, lama nk tinggalkan malaysia kan.. sampai airport je, g jumpa kwn nida, lepas tu g makan lg *senyummmm kt kafeteria bwh tu... nampak x canne sy simpan stok makanan malaysia dlm perut? nampak???

afta that check in n boarding..b4 boarding tu, me telan pill mabuk laut.. motif????? haa..me sejak bnyk kes airplane2 ni, mmg sumpah cuak .. so pill tu tujuan nya utk menidurkan den... and it works! masuk je kapal, me n nida trus tido xsedarkan diri. Tapi..... sejam stgh je la tido, lg sejam stgh tu segar bugar den ha #nanges ... dlm hati mmg xputus2 berselawat..alhamdullillah, perjalanan kami 4jam ke kalibo selamat... 

afta touch down, kami terus ke southwest nya representative yg membawa kami ke caticlan jetty and ferry transport untuk ke boracay. Perjalanan dr kalibo airport ke jetty memakan masa almost 2hours dengan menaiki bas persiaran,  br sampai kan, seronok la jugak..tp tahan 30min je, lepas tu sambung dozzzing~ ahahhaaha...

sampai kt catilan jetty, kami diberi 3 tiket..satu kuning (ferry tiket), oren (terminal tax) and putih (enviromental fees). Tu smua southwest yg uruskan. Untuk makluman, better siap2 beli ground transport dr southwest yg merangkumi transportation dari kalibo airport ke caticlan ke boracay ke tempat penginapan and vice cersa termasuk segala tax n fees. Kos bg smua perkhidmatan diatas tu adalah RM117 je... tp ni varies depends ngan harga duit semasa. Murah kan?? and service dia pun tiptop *thumbsup .. u xpyh buat apa2 pun.. smua dh settle. jd its highly recommended.

Tempat kami menginap tu namanya Merlys Place Cottage.. honestly? me sgt suka tmpt ni..1st, bilik besar n toilet bersih, 2nd dia terletak di old talipapa which mean kami dekat dgn kdai halal muslim..nmpk? interms of pantai and tmp nk berjln, tmpt kami ni mmg agak jauh sbb terletak di station 3, u have to walk 10min to station 2 and station 1... tp okay je, sbb when u walk along the beach, u x sedar pun u dh berjln smp ke hujung..

after check in, mlm tu kami keluar berjln ke station 2 D'mall dengan menaiki tricycle 

p/s: sbb tak tahu lagi yg sebenarnya dr tmpt kami nk ke station 2 tu dekat je.. kos tricycle 20peso each. Sampai je kami g beli fruit shake. roughly harga shake kt situ dr 80peso ke 130peso. okay la for refreshment kan, konon2 br smp la katakan =p then sambung jenjln untuk mencari telco. Jalan nya jalan nya jalan, jumpa satu kedai yg jual hp and telco. tanya dulu which telco yg bagus..dia rekomen Globe untuk 5 harinya package data 850Mb dpat harga 400 peso aka RM36 laa *mahal kan??* tapi kami sanggup je drpd xde data #nanges .... balik ke hotel kami berjln dr station 2 ke station 3. 

Budget untuk hari pertama

Tiket flight: RM 226 (two way) Airasia

Southwest ground transportation: RM 117 (terminal tax = 100peso and enviromental fees=75peso)

Makan kt KLIA2: RM 12

Fruit shake: 90Peso

Telco Globe: Untuk 5 hari package, 850Mb = 400Peso

Sebuku Roti : 48 Peso

tu je untuk hari pertama kami di boracay. Penat weyh.. masa bnyk habis kt journey je

p/s: gmbr otw..tenet lembap -.-'

ATV Adventure time

Holla,

 nk citer psl i n kwn i g main ATV kt kg.kemensah semalam on weekdays.ATV ni terletak 4.8km dr entrance zoo negara. On the way nk ke tmpt atv kami tu, bnyk je kedai2 yg offer service atv nie. Yang kami pergi ni, dia ada letak signage along the way to leads you to them, so its easy and you wont get lost or confuse.

Before nk g terjah main ATV ni, den nasihatkan, better wat booking sbb kami pergi ni pun agak full untuk weekdays yg at the same time tgh cuty skolah bagai, bayangkan klu weekends? ha, xsesak kau? kami booking 3weeks earlier and have to pay 50%.

ni website atv adventure --> atv adventure park kemensah  for booking, contact saiful, dia akan rekomen kan which pakej yg sesuai ikut korangnya condition *thumbs up*

Dalam banyak2 pakej, kami pilih pakej C i.e. RM150, time:2-2.5hours pitstop:sofiajane waterfall. ikutkan nk pakej D dimana dia bawak g naik klang gate, tapi instructor tu nasihatkan for newbie better stat with B or C. At first i mcm underestimate :- " ceh, mcm la susah sgt nk bwk ATV tu?'
" drove je la mcm biasa, i xnmpk mana susahnya" .... tu adalah ayat2 bongkak den before naik ATV *klu nk penampor den time tu, dialu2kan..bukan skrg* =p

Dah nama g akhir tahun, musim hujan lak tu..haa, sah2 la track lecak and licin plus heavy rain no -stop weyh. mau x gugur jantung kau? track dia mmg rough sbb keadaan cuaca kan. Mau x mau, kena gak la redah. ada kena redah bukit yg almost 70 degress condong  (nanges weyh)... mulut non-stop beristifar n baca ayat pemudah tahu? *dpt bygkan x canne nebes nya den?* and aome of the track sebelah gaung okay... my fren tu hampir terjunam masuk tahu?luckily she press break. After that incident, dia x berani nk drove sendiri, jadi abg instructor tu yg duduk sblh and lead the way. One thing about this place, dia akan betul2 jaga customer2 under dia hingga smp destinasi. Mana yg halfway give up tu, dia akan pandu kan atv tu sblh u, service dia mmg tiptop, cuma ada pekara yg mmg diluar kawalan tu, mmg xdpt la dia nk wat apa2 kan.. seperti one of my team mate, ATV dia tergolek and hempap kaki dia and my friend almost masuk gaung...haa,incident mcm tu mmg diluar kawalan tp yg lain smua tip top *thumb up*.

Before nk naik ATV nie, ada briefing how to use this piece of steel. how to on and how to restart engine tgh2 jln if mati... ha, me slalu termati engine tahu? kehkeh... and how and when to use left and right break...since track licin n lecak, break sgt lah penting. And practice pusing kem atv tu utk biasakan customer how to handle the ATV.

penyambut tetamu ^.^
p/s: buat la apa pun kt si comel ni, haramjadah dia nk bangun 

briefing by our track guide

A lil practice before hitting the track

Yeay! balik dgn one piece ^.^
