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…

2013 Kembara Qurban Q2 3NR - A journey through many terrain...

“Four wheels move the body, two wheels move the soul...”


Q2 Kembara Qurban
(11 - 25 October 2013)

Alhamdulillah... It has been nearly two weeks since we came back from our Kembara Qurban 2 and we have rested well.

It has been a worthwhile, once in a life time experience. I am trying to recollect and record our travels through Thailand, Laos, to the border of China and Myanmar, referring mostly to the photo shots I have taken. Those pictures taken were mostly while on the bike riding pillion with my mind more on the road rather than on the surrounding sceneries. But also at times, unintentionally I had snapped local scenes with a tinge of candor. Here you may find my recent travel stories, lots of photographs, thoughts on hardships and despair, joyful, clever and stupid things we had done, tales of adventures and everything in between.

We called ourselves ‘Kita-kita Bikers’ for simplicity. I am glad to be with this biker’s group. Patience is something I admire in them. During the two weeks traveling together, we have gone through a lot of hardship, perseverance and shared joyous moments together.

This coming Friday the gang is having a TTS, most probably we'll be reminiscing our last trip and planning our next ride.

Life is a journey through many terrain
From garden of pleasure to desert of pain
From an ocean of love to a jungle of hate
From mountains of glory to canyons of fate...

There’s a highway for joy and highway for sorrow
A road for today and a road for tomorrow...
