Chapter 3 { Zurich, Switzerland }

Guten tag!

If you ask me what I did at Zurich, my first answer is -Swimming. 

Hahahaha, yeah. We went for swimming, but not in the lake la. We went to those public pool at somewhere I don't know. Friend's brother brought us there :D It was another good experience to swim at the public pool in other country. I guess... I rmb I can't reach the floor cause the pool was like 160-200cm if not mistaken. and I'm just 162cm :o ! We went to the Zurich lake for the first day, nothing much. Just a lot of swans hahaha!

I think Switzerland is the cleanest place I ever been to. Even our 2 star hotel, I opened the window, the bricks outside are alll DUSTLESS.  Seriously, how did they do that?!

Go Switzerland of course need to see snow mountain right! Although its summer but still a lil bit of snow above. Lol it reminds me of somekind of dessert.

On the way ~ Switzerland is famous for their slowest train in the world. It was realllly slow, then you can enjoy the view :D

We went to Stanserhorn. It's recommended by the tourism helper. People they are very friendly and very informative. We wanted to go Jungfraujoch. Which is located at some where near Geneva and the ticket to go there is around 200-300 franc. x3, its freaking almost RM1000 just for the train. So nevermind! I'm sure I'm coming back here someday to Jungfraujoch. Ticket to Stanserhorn, Luzern from Zurich HB is around 115CHF. Still so exp, but nevermind. We tourist can spend a lil. 

It includes the ticket for the old old train and the double decker cable car. And a complimentary drink at Stanserhorn cafe. Not bad la hor haha

 The old old train i mentioned earlier haha

 And the scary double decker cable car :O ! Of course i stand at the upper deck ngeh ngeh

Can see the cafe and the view from here ! 

Buddies ! :D

That's me ! (crap)

"where da hell is the snow moutain ?!"

Nah, here you go behind there :P

THE LAST DAY

We went to Luzern city that day. We were walking around, drinking in the super nice view and fresh air. We sat down in a restaurant beside the lake and spent our afternoon together doing girls' talk. Another very enjoyable day though we didn't do a lot of sightseeing :)

We always eat very good dinner before we leave the country.

Paris = The very authentic french cuisine

Venice = Manuela and potato cooked for us ! 

Zurich = The Swiss cuisine aka german cuisine. (for me i think they are the same)

Switzerland is very near to German. So their food are more or less the same. Even the people there speak German. Hmm...

I can say the sausages all around Switzerland is very nice. If you have no idea what to eat for lunch. Go for a hotdog, its big and filling. Was once four of us had hotdogs and Rivella (the signature soda of Switzerland, must try)  for each of us as breakfast. It cost us more than RM120, Switzerland memang exp gile.

But quite worth la hahaha. 

Oh ya, speak about expensive. SWITZERLAND HAVE THE MOST EXP STARBUCKS I SWEAR.

The only drink I drink at starbucks in Europe is the strawberry frap. Cause it is not available in Malaysia.

It cost you 7smtg CHF for a tall strawberry frap you know ! Its like RM21 in Malaysia, I can drink a frap with a small pastry d leh ! And then I went to London, It was only 3.25GBP for the same thing. TSK.

The same goes to Mc Donald at Switzerland. Bahhh, nevermind.

Opps, I was talking about my last dinner at Switzerland hor.

We had a feast ! I don't really remember what we ordered. I only can remember we ordered the 1/2 meter sausage, it comes with a delishhh gravy with it. Then.. pork knuckles loh, hmm then there's another Switzerland must try food is their "potato fry" idk what is it called but it is like a HUGE hash brown with sauce, very nice too! Other than that I couldn't rly remember what I had that night, but I remember it was awesome and Elaine's brother was hilarious hahahahahahah

We saw all other tables ordered this, then we kiasu hahahaha!

It was nice too, they mix some rum (if not mistaken) with beer and set it on fire [ I SET FIREEEE TO THE RAINN~~] , lol. And voila ! It taste nice :D

And this is our stupid face with the gigantic beerxliquor hehh~

That's all for my Switzerland trip !

Next will be London.

Anyway, I am leaving to Hong Kong tomorrow morning.

Joyce and yeusin told me that I'm the most hangfok one among all their friends. Yeah I know, I am :P

All thanks to my cute baba mami <3 :D

Ciaoz !

Good pair of shoes.

Aloha ! I got this pair of purrrrty flats on the first day I reached Paris. Been eyeing this pair for so long! I've tried this is msia but it was soooo exp so I let it go. Ahh, so lucky I got it from Paris with much cheaper price, it was on the discount rack and it was it last pair!  The best thing is, its my size. *happy floating*. By the way, its my very first pair of Giuseppe Zanotti :D

p/s : It's hyper comfy I swear!
pp/s : I am going to continue Chapter 3 real soon before I leaving soon again :3
ppp/s : holiday is going to end. Very soon T.T

Ciaoz !

幸福小孩 Chapter 2 { Venice }

Ohaiyo ! I changed my blog template cause I guess galaxy themed is a bit outdated ? 

Hahaha, anyway I'm here to continue Chapter 2 of my Europe trip.

Pronto ?

YES, Venice is hotter than Malaysia., A LOT hotter.

I don't really understand why Venice is surrounded by water but still very hot. I think because they don't have tall buildings ? Oh ya they don't have tree :/

We met our lecturer - Manuela, and her boyfriend there ! Seriously I think Venice wouldn't be that awesome if they didn't accompany us. They came and pick us up from the boat station and lead us around Venice. I don't know what's her boyfriend's name but what I remember was one day Manuela told us that she call her boyfriend as Potato. We remember until that day we met him, then we was like whispering "oh that's Potatooo !!!" LOL Anyway ! Manuela and Potato made a very sweet and matching couple, they're both very kind and cute :D

***

Experience before we met Manuela and Potato up.

My best recommendation, if you can find any watertaxi at the airport, take it. We took the public boat, it took like... i don't know how long, 1.30hour or 2? And it's SUMMER , super hot. We are all sweating, tired, and kinda a bit dizzy cause the boat was super wavy, lol wavy... Is the word correct ? The day before we fly to Venice, we was running across the road at Paris, run here run there. Watching the beautiful night scenery before we leave. And yes it was a beautiful night but i think its not a good idea, cause the next morning we are leaving by 7.30am. Wasn't really happy until we meet them up  hahahaha. 

***

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand cut the crap! Let me continue show you guys some nice pic haha.

There is no car in Venice, okay, I think even bicycle is not very convenient there. Your leg is the best vehicle after all. We walk around 1km+ everyday to the square at Venice. Not sure whether we are all used to walk that much at Paris or the place is so beautiful and made us willing to walk hahaha. Bridges and stairs all around Venice by the way ~

I bought one for myself too ! A smaller simpler one, my luggage exploding heh.

After Paris, Venice, Switzerland, London. I think I like Venice the most. It has the magical atmosphere and I think this is what makes Venice so romantic. I die die also want go with mr lim one day hahaha. Make sure I stay for one whole week with him :D

Group picture with our pretty Manuela !

The view from the bridge.

SO NICE RIGHT.

Another thing I have to mention about Venice. They have all sorts of special fruits. Picture above is a blackberry !  They have one thing called doughnut peach, its way nicer than a normal round peach. I didn't take picture of it, but just imagine a doughnut, and turn it into a peach ! lolol~

If you read my last post, I mentioned that Venice has one SUPERB nice gelato!

GELATOOOO *minions running*

Now let me introduce ..... *drum rolls*

GROM !

Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Pistachio REALLY taste like pistachio, melon REALLY taste like melon. I know it sounds like bullshit. But I never tasted a pistachio flavored gelato really taste like pistachio. Melon either. HIGHLY recommended. Other than these two flavor, the rest are good too !

We went there the next day by our own. Yes by our own we don't have navigator but we just can't resist the yumminess ~~

Dinner of the night! All iz yummeh food really. But the waiter wasn't really friendly :/ 

Try not to take picture in the restaurant, they will get offended idk why ...

The little burgers are nice ! Really nice, i mean it. I not sure what is it called, Manuela and Potato treated us these :S

The second day is all about shopping, I think. For me is a very satisfying day cause I bought the Pandora ring that I lost in the beginning of the year. Fyi, the ring was from my wifey lynn originally. Sentimental value max, that's why I bought the same thing back even though i lost it. hahaha

Prooooooceed to the dinner !

All homecooked by Manuela and Potato !

They made clam aglio olios, tomato salsa and toasted bread with garlic by side~ 

It was really yummy too ~~~ So blessed.

Oh ya ! The next day is the important festival in Venice, so we went out and watch the 30mins fireworks.

So beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul. 

This izz very nice !!! Why malaysia tak ade eh ??! It's frappuccino nehh

We took watertaxi to the airport. Absolutely the right choice, it take about 30 to 45 mins. The price was very reasonable for a private boat too. We all shiok sendiri kept selca in the boat. Hahahaha, another superb experience I guess?

One jump tooooooooooooooooooooooo Switzerland !

Stay tune for next post :D!

Arrivederci !

Blessed little kid , Chapter 1 { Paris }

Ei, you go Paris study ? , You go there how long ? , So long my friend , Take cares ! , Can i go airport with you? .

Hahahahha, thanks guy. But I'm not leaving to study anytime soon, at least two years later okay.

This time, I went with my classmates to see my college at Paris. 

To be honest, I only went twice to Esmod Paris, nothing much, take pictures, look around. Woos and waas.

And the rest ? Thousands of musuems and millions of galleries hahaha. Okay it was quite fun too, gave me alot of inspiration. Guess it will be very helpful for me during next semester.

Yes ! The picture above is the place I might be studying two years later. Might. 

This beautiful room is the main room of Esmod Paris, well someday I will present my work here , perhaps?

I can say that Paris is full with culture and art is everywhere, art people should really pay a visit.

There's only two reason why i like Esmod Paris more than Kuala Lumpur.

1. Cantik-nya interior design dia

2. They have free flow of sample fabric ! How awesome is that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's it, other than that i still like KL more, big space not sempit at all :D

I wonder who made these, smoked alot heh?

***

I went there right after we touched down at Paris. As the hen of the gang, I went to information counter ask for the details about how to get to our hotel. Well, the smart lady told me to take the Roissy Bus will bring me to my hotel's area. And i searched the map, it tells me its true, maybe just 5 mins of walk. So i agree with the suggestion and went to buy tickets and get in the bus. And the coming experience was crazy.

All of us dragged our hyper heavy luggage walked around searching for our hotel. And I used my very basic french tried to ask the way to our hotel. We spent HELLA time walking around. (my friend kena rob by 2 middle east women, lucky enough, my friend shouted real loud and the women let go. They were well trained, they're able to slide out the iphone even though its with silicone case and its tuck into skinny jeans' pocket, they still slide it out without any hinder. Those women turned around and spitted at us as in like we're the bad people. wtf ikr)  And finally we fed up and took taxi from Lafayette straight to our hotel. "WHY not just take taxi in the beginning?!" No taxi ever wanted to fetch us because they said its very near ! And in the end the other driver charge us extra (after that only realize) to take us straight to the hotel! And you know what, from the bus station to the hotel. We have to walk... roughly 45mins (fastest speed) to reach there with our luggage and without getting lost. Haihhhhh malangnya.

***

Just right beside of Esmod Paris, there's a lil gallery. Art students always sit here for a whole day and try to find their inspiration. Good place, good place.

First glory lunch at Paris.

Ekerm, xxx church around my hotel. Tell me if you know what church is this hahaha.

Here you can see people lying freely on the grass, cuddling. Old couples sitting on the bench, telling their old stories. Another beautiful scenery of Paris, or i should say Europe? 

-----------------------------------------------------

Its true that Paris isn't clean, Paris is full with pick pockets ( I experience at least 4 times during the trip),

everywhere you can smell urine, you can see rubbish. But well, when you enlarge the beautiful parts and minimize the others, it can still be beautiful.

Aiskrim at overseas are awezummmmmm, i swear.

the first awezummmmm aiskrim i had is this ! 

(there's one at Venice and another one at switzerland are aweeezumm too !)

Looks good, taste good. But I think Venice and Switzerland are better. Show u guys later hahaha.

These are the best i ever had. I swear, THE BEST. Should really try this if you are going to Paris someday, 

near Saint Paul station *wink* BEST AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Random street at Saint Paul, its the 3rd District. I don't think tourist will come here la ahhaha, but it was a nice place though.

If you want to call this ootd. hahahaha

 Went to Louvre again, and same thing happened. Didn't manage to look at all of the paintings. Its impossible. Yea i went to visit Mona Lisa again, she is still the superstar of Louvre. People die die also want take a picture of her hahhaha.

Bought a sandwich and drink and sat down on the grass like how all people does. Watching the eiffel tower and some naked women and men. Macam yes hahahahaha

If the postman understands my handwriting, the postcard is with you ald i guess hahaha.

RANDOM ~~~~ lol after we all saw this hahaha, so cute.

 I guess we love the grass? hahahaha

Can "kiao ka" under the Eiffel Tower at such young age like once a year. I'm one blessed lil kid. :D

Quite long enough to do lil bun (ngeh ngeh)

The last dinner ! Before leaving to Venice. The authentic French Cuisine, yummiest food i had at Paris. Good ending huh?

 No google image ah, Leica iz prozz hahaha

My college buddies, they are awesome !

Mami said it looks like postcard :D 

If one day you are going to Paris. Please sit down there further a bit from the eiffel. And wait for 11pm, the whole Eiffel Tower will sparkles for 5 whole minutes. Just that 5 minutes, you know what is happy till tear that time. Really, it was real amazing.  A must to experience at Paris. Must.
