entah ler. aku tak penah ikut lagi pakej ni. maybe dia orang cover tempat2 yg penting jer. pakej ni budak2 kita kat UK yg organize. tiap2 tahun dia orang anjur. ni la cara student kita kat sana nak tour europe dgn budget yg terhad. selain student kat UK, ada gak student kita dari Msia, US, timur tengah yg joint sekali. |

Return Fr Europe Backpack-2
Shah...FYI sepanjang perjalanan kami ..kami sll bincang ttg apa yg telah kami baca dlm forum ni esp yours
and Aweganu nye posting..banyak membantu.
Yup卼hat抯 the amount spend. You can say it is cheap cos persiapan and bekalan awal agak banyak. Our
luggage weigh 13kg masa pergi and balik 14kg..tu pun selepas byk barang makanan habis but diganti dgn
souveniers lak . Masa kami travel, sepatutnya spring time but looks like suhu masih sejuk. On the average about 10 degrees
celcius. Masa kami melawat Jungfraujoch (Top of Europe) suhu was 杤e 9 degrees!, Jadi tak perlu bawa banyak pakaian untuk
bersalin. I think I cuma salin shirt and jeans 3 kali saja throughout my traveling. Bawa balik baju bersih yg tak bersalin.
Some of the tips and bekalan yang perlu kita beri perhatian..
1)our backpack beg..make sure yang tahan lasak. Kalau boleh jgn beli knack beg yg top load..beli yg berzip yg boleh buka
keliling sebab kalau topload setiap kali nak ambil barang dari beg kita kena punggah. Kalau yg berzip senang simpan/ambil...
pakaian kita boleh digulung2 untuk mengmaximisekan space. A few brand yg tahan lasak adalah Deuter, High Sierra or Vertical.
I stayed with a Thai couple kat Munich and they are having tough time to load and unload pakaian due to topload beg.
They admire our beg yg berzip kat keliling. To yang I teringat nak share this tip kat sini.
2) Jgn lupa beli beg yg bergantung kat tengkok untuk simpan passport, ticket, cards n cash. Beli yg material nipis but
tahan lasak. Nipis spy tak berat ditengkok. Recommended brand, EC Go. Some suka beli pouch kat
pinggang .. but for me its more convenient yang bergantung sebab better protection and senang to
retrieve tickets/passport. I beli beg ni for RM16.00
3) Oh ya..make sure ada credit card. Masa I nak buat hotel booking via Tourist Information counter kat
Paris, they do not accept cash.
4) Kasut lak..make sure bawa sandle bertali made from 100% rubber..leh bawa berjalan and to toilet. Klau
kain tu..bawa gi toilet & klau basah lambat kering pulak. I beli kat Royal Sport shop..jenis 揳fter sport
wear |

aku setuju sangat yg ni. backpack mesti handy utk amik apa2 barang keperluan yg kita kerap guna. aku dah terkena masa climb mount tahan dulu. jenuh nak cari barang2 kecik dlm backpack tu.
syok sungguh baca story you nora. pls continue your story kay.... |

Return Fr Europe Backpack-3
Day1-LONDON
Masa booked ticket tru MATTA fare bulan March 2006 in KL, I choose Emirates Air..tak lah termurah but I was told service dia
bagus..menandingi SIA. At RM1999 +RM715(taxes) it抯 a good bargain. Ke LONDON kita boleh landing at 5 international
airports: HEATHROW, GATWICK, STANSTED, LUTON or CITY. Saya pilih tiba LONDON melalui GATWICK dan balik melalui
HEATHROW. Jarak GATWICK to LONDON CENTRAL adalah 30miles south and jarak HEATHROW to LONDON CENTRAL adalah 15miles west.
KL-Dubai-Gatwick, London...we started our journey from KL on 19/4/2006 jam 0055hr dengan Emirates Airways..singgah kat
Dubai on 10/4/2006 for 4 hours then sampai Gatwick Int Airport, London jam 12petang. Masa kat Dubai Airport sempat guna
free internet kiosk and hantar a few emails to friends and office mates.The timing of my flight is just nice..tolak at midnite
from KL and sampai LONDON tengahari. I think bila kita nak beli ticket kapal terbang, kita kena take the arrival time into
consideration gak. As for me, time arrival penting sebab kalau sampai malam, I ada masalah hendak mencari hostel/hotel sebab I tak buat booking reason being I dunno where to stay yet.Masa kastam check..takde masalah langsung..dia tanya soklan
basic aje卨ike keje apa, pegi mana, duduk mana, brapa hari staying here etc..sekejap aje. Abt my luggage ..with the food
yg I usung..ingat nak kena tarik..but there was no question asked!
The moment sampai GATWICK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, kami rasa lost ..tak tahu where to begin sbb this is our first backpack destination. Berbekalkan buku The Rough Guide To Europe 2006 (beli kat Popular Book Store for RM32.50), didalam pemilihan
tempat menetap, kami decided to stay at an area near to the Central Station. Our initial plan was to stay somewhere at
COURTS EARL (kerana kawan bagi tau hotel disini murah) but changed to stay somewhere near VICTORIA STATION. We
wanted to take the tube but was advised by the Tourist Information Counter to take the train sebab tak rushing lagi pun klau
ambik tube kami kena tukar station.. and klau naik train I tak perlu tukar2 station. Kami beli tiket keretapi dari vending machine
for {9 ({=pound} to Victoria Station. Take note : there are 2 information counters..1) Tourist Information Counter, untuk
pelancung cam kita. We can asked about transportation, hotels etc. 2} Information Counter-untuk bertanya/beli tiket transports.
Semasa diatas ktapi, kami berbual with one local guy. we learn from this guy that we should buy a Travelcard @ {4.50 valid to
travel on buses, suburban trains and the tube the whole day..instead of buying the {9 ticket tadi. Apa yang menyentuh hati
kami ialah this guy help us to take us to HUGH STREET, VICTORIA卋erderet2 rumah disitu menawarkan B&B lodging. This guy
also help us to knock from one house to another bertanyakan brapa rate untuk tinggal semalam. Kebanyakan mengenakan rate
above {50 untuk 2 orang in the end we ended with IVY HOTEL yang charge us {45 with toilet and breakfast. This place is only
3 minutes walk to VICTORIA STATION!
We are satisfied with the room with clean bed n toilet and location near VICTORIA CENTRAL station (cam KL Central la).
In LONDON ni klau nak sewa bilik with toilet, rate dia lebih tinggi dari yg tak de toilet. Since dah dua hari kami belum mandi, we
choose the one with toilet.
Selepas mandi dan berkemas..we started our sight-seeing. Kami Cuma berjalan kaki dari hotel dan sempat melawat at the
NORTH OF RIVER THAMES area WHITEHALL merangkumi TRAFALGAR SQUARE, PARLIAMENT SQ. DAN BUCKINGHAM PALACE.
To reach to these places takes about 10minutes stroll from our hotel. Semasa dekat BUCKINGHAM PALACE kami sempat
menyaksikan CHANGING OF THE GUARD. Saya difahamkan upacara ni sentiasa diadakan kecuali kalau hari hujan. Kami juga
sempat ke WHITEHALL-banyak government building dan berhenti bergambar depan 10 DOWNING ST. Ramai orang bergambar
disini. Menuju keselatan WHITEHALL kami ke HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT then Menara jam yang terkenal, BIG BEN..jam yang
membawa 13 ton lonceng. Saya enjoy walking at THE MALL yang selari dengan TRAFALGAR SQ..dibarisi dengan pokok. Pastu
kami berehat di St JAMES PARK then kami berjalan ke COVENT GARDEN.
It was a long day for us. Malam nya we stay in door ..masak nasi impit dua packet..1 untuk mkn malam satu buat bekal berjalan
esok. Makan malam: Nasi Himpit, rendang daging, Brahim brand plus Nescafe 卐ehhmmm .. feeling at home...

aku gi london last year tak terpikir pulak nak cross jln kaki from trafalgar square to buckingham palace through 'The Mall' crossing tu. so this year aku plan nak menapak dari trafalgar, lalu ikut "The Mall", singgah St James Park, singgah St James Palace, lepas tu terus gi buckingham palace. |

Sherrina...I am lucky my partner bkn jenis byk songeh...Pilih partner yg "tough" cam backpack gak .
Teamwork very important. Setiap kali dalam keretapi kami akan bincang ttg our destinasi yg nak dituju.
Kami bg2 tugas..my partner tugas dia focus membaca peta & tentukan pengangkutan apa nak naik. I panggil
dia "logistic officer". Yang I lak plan what to do, where to go, how to go..& what to eat or what to buy etc.
masing2 jaga barang sendiri. Time kena punctual. I rasa klau geng ramai2 susah gak...kami 2 org senang
manage atau jaga each other.
Ttg gambar tu..byk gambar solo..tp ada juga gambar berdua, bertiga, berempat..caranya..
1) Masa kat Neuschwanstein, Germany jumpa pelajar Msia 2 org..masa tu la kami bergaya bergambar
pelbagai posing ..berdua, bertiga..etc.
2) Masa nak tangkap gambar scenery (dr keretapi) kami berdua enterframe depan gambar/scenery..
pusingkan viewer camera mengadap kami & sendiri tangkap..menjadi gak.
Yup..tak brani bg local ppl took our pic..nanti dengan kamera2 dia bawa lari... .
Abt the camera..I use JVC Everio..dia leh movie camera n still picture. Movie guna harddisk memory, yg
still picture I bawa memory 1GB. Battery I bawa 2 .. movie camera helpful bila nak tangkap gambar kat
Keukenhof,Holland-ladang Tulips, bangunan gothic yg tinggi2, Swiss Alps yg terbentang indah etc.

btho... alhamdulillah ..sepanjang perjalanan, kami jumpa ramai helpful people..mereka dan kami
ada communication problem...tp tak menghalang bg mrk memberi bantuan. Umpamanya, kat Belgium
bila kami tny for direction, "pakcik" tu siap tulis dalam buku catitan I nama hostel yg murah, nama metro
n cam mana nak gi ke metro tu dan brapa stesyen kami lalu baru turun fr tube. Siap dia bg tiket tube
yg bernilai E$1.50 to each of us, free.
Kat Paris..kami berhenti kat traffic lite to cross the road utk baca peta, "makcik" ni tny in french..
kami senyum aje..tunjuk sign langguage tak faham..pastu dia tny kami tau bahasa spanyolkami
tunjuk sign langguage tak tahu..dia lak tunjuk expressi muka frust tak dpt menolong kami. |
