Assalamualaikum........
Yeahhhhhh..................finally, keluar jugak entry pasal cuti-cuti ke Melbourne, Australia. Hopefully, i can write the full story this time. Means, part 1 until last part...macam percutian sebelum ni semuanya cerita half way. hehe...and ada yg belum citer pun...KRABI, TIOMAN, TERENGGANU and few places lagi. insyaAllah, jika ada kelapangan saya cuba recall ya and story sikit2 kat sini :)
ok...back to the topic. Actually, weols dah book tiket pada 20 September 2012 time Air Asia buat promosi. Dapat tiket dgn harga RM846/pax return inc baggage. Travel on 6-11 Sept 2013. Murah kan.....so, TIPS kalau nak dapat tiket murah, kena booking dlm tempoh setahun dari date promotion ke travel date tu. Memang la mcm lame gilerrr kan nak counting the days. But, no worries....within a year tu uols can plan properly the itinerary. Buat survey about the places, most important about the budget unless uols mmg duit berkepuk2 dlm tong beras kat rumah tu then suke hati uols la kan nak spend berapa ribu pun. hehehe..
actually, the trip was only me and my good friend "KakCik @ Rafidah". But, 3 months before the day our friend "Sarah" decided to join. But, her ticket quite expensive la....around RM1200++ if i'm not mistaken.
as usual, i will be the planner. survey mana tempat nak pergi, cost, food, accomodation & etc. So, 1st thing cari mana nak tinggal sepanjang kat sana tu. pening jugak la sebab rate AUD agak mahal kan. masa tu...dalam kepala otak, mati la aku nak simpan duit ni....bawa 3k pun belum tentu cukup agaknya. my main reference for travelling info always FORUM CARI. mmg sangat useful. from there, i baca boleh stay kat Malaysia Hall (MH) & lebih murah dari hotel. Bulan February i dah email application sebab nak apply MH mmg kena awal. Jika ada kekosongan baru dapat, diorang akan utamakan pelajar2 dulu especially kalau time nak register masuk University ada pelajar transit so susah sikit la nak dapat.
macamana nak apply MH ni uols boleh download form kat WEBSITE dan email kepada warden asrama. they said will reply in 2 weeks time. but, masa i apply sehari je dh dpt reply kalau warden Hj Rudy dulu la. sekarang Hj Rudy dah takde kot so mmg lambat sikit diorang reply. but, the sad thing is the charges has increases...sob...sob...sob....masa weols apply still lagi AUD12 per night. tapi, on June 2013 dah naik, tp still murah la dari hotel....

for the itinerary, this time memang i tak sempat nak plan betul2 just ingat sikit2 apa yg i baca dalam forum, blog, internet then gamble je kat sana nanti. ada mulut tanya la kan.....hehehe
time tu dah masuk spring (Sept - Nov). but, it was early sept and the weather still cold because it's transition from winter to spring. cuaca masa tu dalam 9 - 15 degree. 3 weeks before pergi hari2 check weather. hehe....sebab nak prepare baju kan. tak tau sejuk sangat ke or biasa2 je...nak bawa winter coat ke or jacket biasa ke. pening jugak la....semua last minute nak cari, hehehe...

to get clear picture on how is the actual weather there. i contacted Chef Aznil from MH. contact dia pun i got from FORUM CARI sbb ada traveller yang dah pernah berurusan dgn chef aznil time kat sana. so, i wassap dia dan dapat la info sikit2. he is very nice guy. since, weols sampai di Melbourne dah midnite so we ask chef aznil untuk ambik weols kat airport ke MH.
Airport - Malaysian Hall = AUD50/60 per service
actually, u can get there by bus if uols sampai siang. the rate around AUD12-17 if i'm not mistaken. so, kalau korang dalam group 3-4 person u can get chef aznil to arrange for transfer by car. AUD50/60 bahagi 3-4 org lbh kurang same je kan cost nye :)
chef aznil provide tour service as well, so if uols nak pakai tour guide boleh je contact him ok. i guarantee u will enjoy and satisfy with his service tapi janganla mengada2 nak harga runtuh sangat tau. dia pun nak cari makan beb! he will be nice to u if u are nice with him. hahahahaha.....
u can contact him thru email: aznil707@yahoo.com.sg or whatsapp +61424299540

| ini lah chef aznil atau kitorang panggil "pak nil" atau "abg aznil" |
berapa wang kitorang bawa ke sana? ok...mula2 memang la budget dalam 3k tu pun baru dapat dalam AUD900++. mmg agak risau jugak part ni takut tak cukup duit kan. baca punya baca other traveller punye experiences and calculate all the main cost i bawa dalam 2k je. rate time tu 2.99 kat sg wang. so, dapat la dalam AUD650 je. mmg budget sangat ni......tak kisahla, nak nengok tempat org je buka nak shoping bagai pun.
oh ya....passport and visa. passport macam biasa la....kena renew sebelum 6 bulan tarikh tamat. kalau tak bye2 la kena patah balik rumah. hehe.....passport baru sekarang dah black & white tau. visa pulak, weols apply thru cik intan. she is a travel agent i think, sangat senang, cepat & murah berurusan dengan cik intan. cuma bayar RM20 je. kalau buat kat embassy mahal. hanya email kan maklumat yg di perlukan, dah siap transfer payment. jangan la korang tak bayar pulak ye, 20 hengget je :p
visa ni valid for 1 year.
visa ni valid for 1 year.
