I know that it's been a long time since I write down my travelling journey. I was busy with my job and I crave for holiday. So I hope with write down my experience, I will get another trip soon.
June is my birthday month. I still lived in Medan at that time as a management trainee in Nutricia and all my friends already comeback to Jakarta. I left alone. Having birthday alone in Medan? Doesn't sound good. That's why I plan to have an escape trip to Penang, Malaysia.
Why Penang?
1. I don't need visa
2. Plane ticket was really cheap. IDR 500k for two ways
3. Small city with a beautiful heritage to explore in 2 days.
I always scared to travel alone but I know that I need to do this. I want to spend my birthday in other country and feeling happy. I went on 7th June and I comeback on 8th June.
I slept in Tofu Cafe, Beds and Bikes in George town and I was falling in love with this hostel. This is the best hostel that I've ever had in my life. The owners are so friendly and helpful and the place is nice. They have a really good dorm. It looks like a capsule, and in each capsule you will get a fan, reading light, towel rail and basket to put your stuff. We get a locker to secure our bag, and there is some cozy corner to read or just chatting with your roommate.
