A traveller's reflection: January 2003

My Travel Journal

"There isn't much I haven't shared with you along the road and through it all there'd always be tomorrow's episode" - Elton John

I started traveling around the world since early 80s when I had the opportunity to combine business trips with vacations. Then later when my rezeki is in abundance, there were numerous other trips along the way for vacations, most of the time with hubby and the kids when the timing is right. I have also started to compile the journal and photo-pages covering almost more than 45 years of world wide travel. Some destinations I visited just once, others many times. Many of those places are the obvious famous places people would like to visit but some, the casual traveler doesn't even think to try. I have placed links to my travel at the side bar of my personal page, My Life Reflections, and will be updating them from time to time.

My wish is to continue my travel and complete circumnavigate the globe, insyaAllah…

Italy 2003: Rome - The cradle of Roman Civilisation...

"God's plan for your life exceeds the circumstances of your day..."

(The Colosseum tour)

Rome is a living museum. The Colosseum, Forum and Pantheon bear witness to its Imperial past. From Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel and the Vatican City, to its unrivalled artistic heritage. Near the Spanish Steps be tempted by designer shopping and lively, Latin cafés.

(A night in the museum)

After Rome, hubby and I traveled by train to Venice for a 3-day holiday. I was in Rome again in 2004 to attend 'The Currency Conference' and spent a week holiday in Rome, Naples, Capri and Florence.
