Day 01: Perhentian Diving Trip


Hi, while waiting for my diving refreshment course to start at 4pm, so i am again lured by the power of technologies and got myself into the cybercafe here in Pulau Perhentian. Today is my 1st day in Pulau Perhentian. 5 hour trip from Kuantan lead me to the jetty, then another 45 mins of rocky ride across the sea.
Met couple of tourist from Omen and Holland… and I feel like i’m pretty much the only Malaysian around the island (exaggerated, but seriously, not many Malaysian tourist here).
Btw, my instructor is a cute Japanese girl… hehes ..Juju is her name :p
anyway, since it is 35 cents per minute rate for the internet, i need to type is a speeding bullet to save some bucks…
i’ll write more later, see u guys…

Viva Italia


It has been a week now since i’m back from Italy trip…come to think of it, i really had a good time there, resting and enjoying~
The trip started on 4th Jan 2006, just 2 days after my final exam…reached Rimini airport at noon and greeted by our trip guide, Olga Bari…then, we went straight to San Marino, which is somewhat a Fortress on the mountain…
My First impression in Rimini is that it is not very modern but rather a quiet town/city… first, our bus scroll through the town area where i saw some shops and houses. Mainly, it look like any town in Malaysia, but most houses here are Bungalow. It is quite green in Rimini and the weather is just nice. Cooling and nice.
Soon, our journey change into a more rural part of Rimini. In no time, our bus was flying through endless hills of crops. It is later told that Rimini people live on agriculture, so is many other parts of Italy. And they are world second large producer of olive oil.
to be continue…
