When i travel....

I like free & easy travel style. Normally i do not join guided tour. I will do some research before travel. I search information from internet and travel book.

The only tour we joined is the Europe tour. Countries like France and Switzerland, we may have communication problem - language.

After the Asian financial crisis in 1998, our currency is devalued and we have less spending power. I travel on off peak season because the air ticket is cheap. I buy ticket from consumer travel fairs i.e. MAS Fair or MATTA fair and purchase accommodation package online. I buy less and do mostly window shopping. However, i will still buy souvenir from every place/country i visited.

When i travel, i like to take a lots of pictures. Thank to digital camera, we do not have to spend much on film anymore. I try not to go the tourist spots or things that tourists do. Talk to hotel front desk to get some information. I like food and i try the local food.

A Trip is never considered completed without the stupid photo we take every time we travel.
