Indonesia: Bandung Shoppers' Paradise...

“Tourists don’t know where they’ve been, travelers don’t know where they’re going...” - Paul Theroux

(Normah, me and Ella...)

Months back, when Iwan and Ella asked whether I want to join them for a trip to Bandung, I was not really interested. So during the cheap Air Asia air-fare promotion, they have booked tickets for themselves as well as a ticket for Ella’s mother, Normah, who is joining them for the trip.

Later, I decided to book the same flight at the normal price and have forgotten all about it until yesterday when I received a call from my besan, Normah to enquire about the trip and hotel booking! Whole day yesterday, we browsed the internet and tried to make on-line booking but were not successful as most hotels are fully booked at this time of the year. We called several travel agents and late evening we received confirmation on our hotel booking.

I heard that Bandung has so many things to offer - from scenic attractions to traditional culinary. Bandung also has thousands of textile shops and factory outlets and has become main attraction for shoppers…

Our flight is very early tomorrow morning and I still have time to change my Rupiah…
