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…

Thailand 2017: Satun Kembara Ramadhan Vol 3

“The man who goes alone can start today, but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready...” – Henry David Thoreau

(Masjid Darul Jannah Satun)

Date: 2 - 4 June 2017
Route: KL- Satun- KL
Total distance: 1,300 km
The gang: Mus/Mun, Mat Put, Hayami/Siti, and Fauzilan

In this month of Ramadhan we rode to Satun and spent a few days there.

With the assistance of cikgu Joe from Satun, we had identified a few mosques for us to deliver contributions and infaq to help and support them to reduce the costs on iftar during Ramadhan. During our stay there, we had the opportunity to break fast and perform the solat Terawih with the jema'ah there.

Mission well accomplished. Alhamdulillah...
