Sky d'world

Feeling sad when holiday is about to end, that was how I felt when reaching Yangon at 5am, and it was raining heavily. We had asked the same taxi driver to pick us up (economic calculation instead of hotel and taxi to travel in and out city, we decided to book a day for 50 USD for 10 hours drive on that day). But maybe it was raining, he was late so we had to wait till around 6.30am, to be honest I didn't have any idea where to spend in Yangon but thanks to the taxi driver  first we were taken to Kyauktawgyi Pagoda, it was closer to airport before taking us to breakfast.

Saya harus berterimakasih kepada BD (singkatan dari Backpacker Dunia) group , karena secara tidak sengaja melihat posting dari anggota BD mengenai tulisan blog "Bagaimana AirAsia mengubah hidupmu?" Hadiahnya ke Nepal, woww ... salah satu tujuan impian saya, lengkap dengan paket uang saku dan lain-lain, meski kalau dikasih tiket saja, saya sudah akan sangat berterima kasih. Langsung saya searching di Airasia Indonesia facebook page , jujur sudah lama saya tidak pantau Airasia karena setahun terakhir di sebelah lebih murah, dan kebetulan sekali karena saya baru mulai menulis blog, cari dan cari akhirnya ketemu, asyik. Aduh, ternyata sudah mulai dari tanggal 1 Agustus, baca dan baca, syarat yang paling berat bagi saya adalah memakai bahasa Indonesia yang baik dan benar. Doh.. Bagaimana ini... Mamaaa. Saya sekarang menyesal kenapa sebagai seorang bangsa Indonesia, saya tidak bisa berbahasa Indonesia yang baik dan benar, tetapi sepertinya saya tidak mempunyai pilihan la...
