Eyeliner & Guitar: vacation

Salam & Hi!

Its summer time! Planning for a trip in Europe? If it happend to be one of these cities;

London, Edinburgh, Dublin,Amsterdam, Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Prague, Paris, Madrid, Brussels, Copenhagen

i strongly suggest the free walking tour!

I didnt know about this free walking tour until i was in Berlin. It was awesome! My friends and i got to visit more places than we have planned to.. Plus, the tour guide loaded us with historical facts. Thats better than walking and taking pictures! Right? And the best part, we dont have to read the map! =P

How is it free? The tour guides will give their best in guiding the tour and at the end of the tour, its us who decide how much tip to give. Simple. And from what i observed, the tour guides always had a superb passions...they were really in love with their city! So..., for a budget traveler (or a student) like me, this is a savior! ^^

No bookings! Just go to their official webpage and then click on the city you are going. Check for TIME and PLACE to meet. Be there on time and enjoy the tour!

Salam & Hi!

I'm starting classes tomorrow! *gulp* Am I ready? I dunno... errk. =.="

The last 3 weeks was awesome! Alhamdulillah.. New places, new experiences, new knowledge, meeting new friends... ^__^

Right after i finished my finals, i was off to the UK for two weeks! The trip was not soo well-planned, thus it caused me more pounds than it should! *sobs sobs*

#IMPORTANT TIPS EVA

Plan ur trip thoroughly! Plan EVERYTHING! i mean it...EVERYTHING! from what time you gonna wake up in da morning (if u can! ngee*), wuts for breakfasts, where to go, how to travel from one place to another within the city, lunches, dinners, even what to buy! Plan at least 2 months earlier.

BATH

Luckily i had Alifah (and Almaz too) there waiting for our arrival.

They prepared us a fansy supper! yummmm~

Spent the whole next day walking in Bath city. Thanks to, Bath City Forever Tourist Guide: Alifah & CK! They've been showing around Bath City for 3 consecutive days.

Subhanallah. It was indeed a beautiful city. Rich with art and architecture.

In front of Bath Abbey.

LONDON

I was soo happy to meet Garnetrons ( KY house members) in London. We got to house hopping and meet everyone and FOOD. ahaks~

At Zamri's Place...

Thats Zamri.. Cooking......

Meanwhile,

We Girls Lepak-lepak.. =P

At Punca's Place.....

Yeah, thats us! Doin a Malaysian Kenduri at the hostel corridor

LONDON TUBE

London Tube was soo confusing at first.. and scary.... But after a week, i think.... I got used to it. At least i know how to read the map! To those staying in London for a more than 3 days.. Might get yourself an oyster card. Its a blue, 'touch-and-go' kinda card, where you can top up and just use it. Cheaper if you travel by tube a lot.

BOXING DAY

Gaaahhh! Shoppping spree...! Everything is discounted on Boxing Day. People will be pushing and grabbing, and trust me.. Unless you already have targeted items, just go once to get the experience. *maybe i'll change my mind when i have extra money for shopping.. who knows.. cuz then, i can grab whatever i like!* But for now, i think New Year Sale offers better prices! Cuz everything unsold on Boxing Day (which is a day after Xmas) will be brought forward to New Year Sale. =P

Oxford Street Tube Station

Oxford Street

I only grab necessities... ^^
Thats a bag for goin to lectures (needed!)
As well, body wash and lotions (needed!)

Thats me, feeling soo HAPPY cuz someone belanja! ^^

After chatting and burping, Nazhif brought us to Camden Market, which I FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATELY with! They sell vintage items! Pure awesomeness!!
