My Journey: Bali Day 1

28th February,Tuesday-My Dearie dropped me off at LCCT and I started my solo journey.Superb Excited yet nervous.My Journey-Eat,Pray,Love in Bali!Love=Love Myself!

When i touched down Bali,I took my time to fill up the forms and cards that are required at the counter.When i walked out from the departure hall,I walked around and cant find my name on any of the guest boards.The hotel did not arrange my transportation as they promised in the email!Grrr..I started feeling grunchy and asked my Guardian Angels why they are making this trip so hard for me when they asked me to be here.After letting out my grunchies "Amadae" caught my eyes.That was the hotel that I suppose to stay for the next 3 nights.The hotel staffs were there to pick up other hotel guests.They arranged another driver to send me to the hotel.While on my way to the hotel,I saw "Satay Biawak"!People who really likes challenges,you may try this Satay!

After 20minutes ride,I've reached the hotel.I love the environment and the staffs were really friendly.I don't get it why the confirmation of reservation,the missed out airport transfer would happen but anyway i just explained the whole story to the Duty Manager.He is really polite and he sincerely apologized.He offered me free transport when I checked out from the hotel and free upgrade to Pool side Deluxe Room.So Thing happens for a reason.If all these did not happen,how can i have all these privilege?

The room was really Big,Clean with a huge bathroom!I just love my room.I went for a complementary massage in the hotel spa.One of the staff suggested some places to visit in Bali.What caught my curiosity was I can swim with the dolphins in one of the hotel in Singaraja.He said he saw a promotion banner in Kuta.He'll get back to me the next day when i come for the massage appointment.Wow!Swimming with the dolphins~Wee~~^^

The hotel staffs were really helpful where they provided a map for me and shows me where to go and how to get there.Walked along the streets in Seminyak and found Bakso(Beef balls with glass noodles)!That was the Best Bakso that I have tasted throughout the journey.It's only 5000rph which is around RM1.70 for a bowl!I done some shopping and finding my way to Warung Murah for some local food.After walking for nearly 15minutes I still cant find the Warung.When I was just about to give up,St.Germain urged me to raise my head and check out the restaurant's name.Warung Murah!I'm here already!I've tasted their Soto Ayam and Ayam Bertutu.Nice!I really felt the fulfillment in my heart where i really spent time with myself.ME time!

After my dinner I went back to the hotel.Well I got to start planning for my Day 2 trip.So i asked the receptionist about the hotel's daily driver service.It was 550,000rph!Expensive!I decided to find a driver on the street the next day.I requested 2 mineral waters and the bell boy who was standing beside us will be sending it to my room.Before I walked into my room,the bell boy asked me am I finding for a driver.I answered Yes and he told me that he has a friend who are a driver.He charge at 400,000rph.Well,cheaper than the hotel but I remembered when I was in the plane the guy behind me mentioned so loud that he hired a driver at 350,000rph.So i counter offer the bell boy at that price.After half an hour he called me at my room and offered me 375,000rph where he highlighted that his friend can speak English.I took the offer and that's how i got my driver!I started to believe that things will eventually fall into place and My guardian angels will send those people to my door step!That Easy!hehe!^^

My Journey to Bali:How did the whole journey started~

This is my 1st spiritual trip in my whole life & I'm travelling alone!The process from how did i booked my flight to completing my trip..it's really an unbelievable journey!

1 day in the beginning of February,my guardian angels asked me to check out AirAsia website.I was so curious why did they ask me to do so.I followed the guidance and clicked on AirAsia's website.1st thing I saw was Bali Promo!check out the dates & 2ways from KL to Bali is only RM366!I need a clearer clue whether is it true that they want me to visit Bali.They directed me to read the book that i'm reading during that time.I grabbed my book and my guardian angel said "The answer lies within this book."After reading about 10pages,i saw "Chapter 8 Archangel Raphael is a Travel Angel..if you are travelling alone do call upon this angel to protect you throughout the journey..".It's a very strong YES!I surrendered & bought my flight tickets without knowing where to go in Bali & what to do there.

Since I've bought my ticket,I planned to plan my journey and routes in Bali.Eventually thing does not go with my way.Tried a few attempts and I couldn't book the hotel that i wanted.I only managed to book the homestay in Ubud.Time is ticking and i haven't have a plan.I was really panic!I used to plan things ahead but now i just got to surrender and learn how to go with the flow.

10days before my Bali Trip,I got my 2nd Bali trip clue.That day I was way behind my schedule to get back to Penang so I decided to pay my Dearie a visit in AsiaWorks office.I met up my friend Denise in the office & we decided to have a tea session together with Cariel.3 of us-The Charlie Angels visited Bali before and both of them highly recommend me not stay in Kuta but Seminyak.On the same day while I was on my way back to Penang,my guardian angel whispered beside my left ear :"check out Groupon."I click on Groupon website and found a new deal for Bali.I scrolled down the page and checked the address: Seminyak.I bought the voucher and saved up 50% for my 4D3N stay in Seminyak.

Via Email I communicated to reserve my room with the hotel side,there were some hiccups during the whole process.I did not get my room reservation confirmation until a day before my Bali trip.I started to doubt that I would survive the 9days in Bali.The journey started so tough with so many hiccups & uncertainty.I only get 2 hotels booked & that's all I've prepared for the trip.I do not know where to stay for the last 2 days in Bali,where should i go in Bali,will I have enough money to survive in Bali,will someone kidnap me,who will be my driver,who's going to be my tour guide etc.That was all my doubts & fears.I surrendered all my worries,fears to my guardian angels where I know that they will take good care of me throughout my whole trip.I just packed whatever is necessary and prepared only RM2000 cash for the trip,which is around 6million rupiah.(The last trip on November 2011,5D4N I finished my RM1000 within 4days and I don't understand how am I going to survive with only RM2000 for 9days..when i realized this fact it's already midnight of 28th February where all the money changer had closed.)

Well,that's all that I can do for now.Pray for the Best for my Bali trip!
