A former Portuguese, Dutch and British colony, this Unesco World Heritage site is now attracting record numbers of tourists lured by its unusual architecture and cuisine, which reflect centuries of foreign influences.... full story here

Congratulations Melaka, I'm proud of you.

Caméra de surveillance vidéo, fait désormais partie de l'équipement important en France et aussi les grandes villes dans le pays moderne. Pour les voyageurs, nous nous sentons sûrs en voyant les systèmes de surveillance et d'une caméra de vidéosurveillance dans tous les coins de la ville.

It's been 19 hours when I start my first entry of this year. I wish this year will be better for me, and hopefully there will be more travelling, vacation holidays and 'jalan-jalan cari makan-makan'.

Don't forget the big event for this year, Olympics London 2012..

As usual, count down and fireworks show is part of must do for new year celebration. Here I found on youtube, amazing extraordinary random and continuous fireworks show. :

Pesta kembang api Jakarta, tahun baru 2012. Khususnya di daerah selatan dari Bintaro sampai Kebayoran lama, dan Cipulir. Lebih ramai dari kembang api resmi, walau pemasangan kembang api terlihat sporadis bermunculan dimana mana.

Before ending the post, watch another fantastic, great, fabulous fireworks video of Burj Khalifa Firework 2012 Dubai HD

All the best for readers and again, happy new year!

Great bargains and jobs for backpackers plus win free weekly deals

noreply@blogger.com (samdaddycool) — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 19:14:00 +0000

I love travelling and I'd like to see new things, new place and learn the culture. It is one of my dream to travel and discover the whole world. There were times I've been dreaming to visit places of interest in Sydney, New York, South Africa, Hawaii and Tokyo. I never been to those places and I really like to visit them.

When I was in UK, I've met a couple which they already travelling and discover the world. They worked with me at the same factory. Both came from South Africa but working in England to earn money just for travelling. When I met them, the guy just 35 years old and it really surprised me.

They used to work for six moths while the rest 3 moths they travel as a backpackers. They keep doing the same routine till the mission accomplished. They really inspire me to apply the same method of travelling. I am now start doing some research on how to survive as a backpackers for long period abroad.

I’ve heard that there are jobs for backpackers available if we deal with the agent. I'd like to know about Visa information and status for backpackers, eg. I'm Malaysian and do I allowed to do backpacking in Australia (seriously Australia is one of my wishlist).

There are also a website for us to refer if we are planning for backpacking. I've seen one with lots of great bargains and chances to win free weekly deals. The website provides location based search and featuring most updated apps especially for iPad, iPhone and Android ready. They also have App Store and Market, Facebook games and Twitter daily updates.

I'd like to try my luck with the deals. Who knows it will be my day and I will be flown to Australia with free flight tickets!

Cottages in Cornwall, Eden Project

noreply@blogger.com (samdaddycool) — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:50:00 +0000

image of my boy with his uncle

For past entries, I’ve talked about London apartments and the Olympics 2012. In this entry, it still related to United Kingdom, the place where I spent 4 years, completed my study and earned lots of Pound Sterling (by working and doing ebay). During those periods, I’ve spent a lot when travelling around England, up to Wales, Scotland and some European countries.

Normally I prefer driving my proton Wira car (known as Proton Persona in UK). Just for knowledge, here I share some information about proton Wira, credit to wikipedia:

In 1994, exports to the United Kingdom began where it was marketed as the Proton Persona (not to be confused with the latest 2007 sedan model by Proton). As with the Saga, all export models used multi-point fuel injection to comply with the Euro I emissions standards. The UK market also had a turbo diesel engine in the range, called TDi. In 2001, the Wira name was finally used in theUnited Kingdom, replacing the Persona name.

So, I loved the car very much and she really deliberate on me. Unfortunately, I’ve to let it go as it is not worth for shipment back to Malaysia.

Ok, so lets get back to what I’m going to say. Among those places of interest in UK, I really admire cottage house. The cottages are really special to me. I like the look and the surrounding environments. For me, cottages in Cornwall are one of the best in term of house designs, environment and variation. I had a chance to enjoy the view and scenery during my vacation to Lands End, back in 2004.

The topography of Cornwall makes the cottages look amazing, as there were hills, stiff area, high cliff and the ocean with big waves. Everything looks so perfect to me.

Not far from Cornwall town, there is a masterpiece of architecture, laid cluster of gigantic dome know as Eden Project. The Eden Project was designed by great architect, Nicholas Grimshaw. It was a great honour for me, to have a chance witnessing the art of architecture from great architect.

Honestly, I’m so impressed once I stepped into the giant dome. Believe me, you can’t get the same experience any other place in UK or Europe. The special about Eden Project is that it gathered plant species from around the world. The first emulates a tropical environment, while the other dome for a warm temperate, mediterranean environment.

It’s already 6 years since I left England for good. Still I have the feeling to come back there to enjoy all places of interest and holiday destinations. I wish I can make it again.

London holidays Summer Olympics 2012

noreply@blogger.com (samdaddycool) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 21:11:00 +0000

Summer Olympics 2012 is not far away from us. The London Olympics will be held from 27th July till 12th August 2012. Even not for Summer Olympics, London already known for some prestigious sports tournaments, such as Wimbledon (tennis) and Wembley Arena (football).

If I had a chance, I would like to be in London Summer Olympics 2012. Anyway, it depends on my budget and availability.

When talk about visiting London, it will involve with London holidays. As we know, London is one of the most visited places for holidays. Previously in my posts, I’ve mentioned about London holiday apartments and hotels in London.

For some people, they might be looking for best London hotels or maybe a luxury hotel in London for Olympics 2012 accommodation. For others especially with family, they might be looking for self catering London 2012 , cheap hotels London or maybe an apartments in London to get better rate for longer period. There will be great if we can find central london hotels during the 2012 Olympics.

Anyway, you better reserve a place for Olympics 2012 accommodation if you are planning to get there during summer 2012. I bet there will be extraordinary and irregular visitors coming to London during the Olympics.
