Stories from my adventures around the world
So, the day was finally here, the end of my five-week trip to Asia. Got up a bit earlier to have time for a shower, to eat breakfast, and adjust anything in my bags if needed. When I got down to the restaurant it was full, so they wrote down …
Just breakfast, TV shows in the room, packing, and some pool time until it was time to leave for tonight’s entertainment, the Skye Restaurant on the 56th floor of the Grand Indonesia East Mall. I didn’t even eat lunch. When I arrived at the mall, I first went looking for …
I woke up a bit sore from yesterday actually. I had my breakfast and asked the receptionist where I should go if I wanted to visit Kota Tua, the old town. He didn’t really understand my question, I first wanted a spot or address where I could direct the cab …
Today was the earliest day for a week or two. Alarm went off at six so I could get breakfast before getting picked up at seven. Isabel met me in the lobby just before the agreed time and she informed me how the day should proceed while were waiting for …

Took a really slow morning and had breakfast in the hotel restaurant. It was a decent breakfast, with both international stuff (bread, waffles, cornflakes) and some local dishes I didn’t dare to try today. I will probably eat there every morning this week. I decided to go to Grand Indonesia, …
I set the alarm at 8 so I would have enough time to pack. As usual, I had too much time set aside so I was done when the clock hit 9. I took a shower, checked out, and then went out to find myself a mug, the souvenir I …
We took the morning off and left the hotel at around 11:15 to have breakfast at our favorite place (the third time now) just across the street. When we were about to leave the rain started pouring. We went to look for another way down to the subway, on our …
I woke up just before the alarm at 9 and my plan was to check out the electronics store from yesterday if they had a charger for my watch, before Jonas got up. But the comfy bed and a game on my phone kept me a bit too long. I …
