My First Solo Trip (part 3)

The last post was about my 1st day in Bandung and I'll sill continue the story. Staying at my brother's boarding house didn't mean that he could take me everywhere I want to go. Because he was so busy, at night I went to one big mall in Bandung, Paris Van Java (PVJ), alone. He said it's okay to walk there, because it's not too far from his place. Then, I walked, walked, walked and walked. Yeah, of course it's not too far to walked there alone at night. -_-'

Actually, my purpose of going there is only to buy this 'wannabuysincealongtime' pretzel. Hehe. It's because, in Indonesia, so far I only found it here, in PVJ.

PRETZEL.. Yeaah.. Finally we meet again..

Luckily, when I arrived, there's a music performance from Kahitna. Then I spend a little time to watch their performance. They are good. I love when the musician do their live performance. I determine a good and bad musician by watching their live performance. And this group is a good one.

Kahitna live in action

Next day, I make an appointment with my friend, Sinta. She is my junior at college, but we're quite close and often hang out together. She is pregnant, on her 2nd going to 3rd trimester. It was really nice meeting a friend who has not been encoutered for a quite long time.

After lunch, with Sinta

Yeah, the meeting was quite short because I should take an afternoon train and continue my trip to Bojonggede, at 02.30 PM.

My first solo trip was quite fun. But, I think I prefer to go with at least one person to accompany me. Yeah, I think duet or trio trip will be better.

For you who want to try a solo trip there are some things that you should prepare.
First, you should decide which place you want to visit and make a little research by collecting informations about that place. 'Mbah' google makes it so much easier to do. Reading a blog which talk about the place also very helpful.
Second, make a simple itinerary. It will help to manage your time efficiently. And you won't get confuse, because you've plan your trip.
Third, don't bring too many stuff with you. Only brings the things you need. Money and a pocket camera is a must.

Maybe, it was the basic things. The most important thing is you should enjoy your trip and don't forget to pray everywhere you go.

Happy holiday, have a nice trip.
