Next Project: Tour de PSSS -Fourth Edition-

This year, de' Kozzy and I will have a separate project. I won't reveal about de' kozzy's plan in this entry,I will let him revealed about his project by himself.

So, where will I go this year?

It started in October 2009. Indonesia Airasia had just opened its new international route to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Spontaneously, I contacted my travel buddies and most of them agreed to buy the promo ticket. We got the promo, Ticket from Jakarta to Ho Chi Minh City only costed us Rp 249.000. One month later, the one million free seat promo from Airasia started. At the first time, I tried to get Bangkok-Jakarta promo ticket but I failed =.= (later I feel grateful that I didn't get the ticket considering the Bangkok political situation lately). So, I tried the plan B and finally got the promo ticket from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta which only costed us Rp 120.000. Finally, I got the promo ticket from Siem Reap to Kuala Lumpur. The price was only Rp 330.000. Total cost for aeroplane ticket was only Rp 700.000!!! Amazing isn't it? The cheapest I ever had.

The trigger

How about the route?
Here is the plan. We will fly to Ho Chi Minh City by Airasia. After three nights, we will go to Phnom Penh, Cambodia by bus. We will stay there for 2 nights and continue our trip to Siem Reap to visit the mighty Angkor Wat. Finally, we will fly to KL, stay there for two nights, and go back to Jakarta. It will be a 10 days 9 nights journey, will be the longest trip I ever had.

Well, I just hope that everything will be alright and we can go touring again this year. I'm very excited. Exploring Vietnam and Cambodia is one of my wish list since years ago and it will come true this year. Oh July, please come faster!!!
