Big Thanks to STEEMIT and Community Steemit of Indonesia for this most beautiful gift.
Do you like traveling? Want to feel the adventure until the remote country or to the end of the world? Many answered "yes i want", "of course", "absolutely yes i want". But, many people think that traveling is expensive and complicated. So they are forced to bury the passion of traveling. Though it should be easy traveling and fun. Everyone needs to change the atmosphere for a moment and escape from the daily routine.
Actually, traveling is not always expensive. There are many ways for cheap streets. Being a traveller or strolling traveller style which is one way for cheap streets. Unfortunately, there are still many people who think backpacker is complicated because everything should be taken care of themselves.
Why be a Traveller
- Adventure is fun.
- Know more about tourist spots and rich experiences.
- Add more friends.
- Traveller is cheap and easy.
- The journey are more impressive.
- Full of challenges.
- Getting a lot of life lessons.
True adventurers not only rely on physical but also thought and brave!
What is a traveler? Traveler is touring and adventure with a low cost / minimal. Another opinion suggests that travelers can also mean an international trip independently. Being a backpacker is also identified by doing an odyssey. Traveler has now become a trend, especially when people start choosing to travel all alone or travel for a very low cost. When people have started to realize that traveling no longer has to be expensive. From here then develop some new terms like flashpacking, campervan, etc ..
How to do traveler? Given the traveler is independent traveling or traveling alone or in small groups such as with the family (this is what I do now), with a low cost / low, for it is needed preparation.
Now I will share to our steemian friends who have a traveling hobby, maybe this will be useful for us all. I am very inspired with my best friend @kemal13, @kakilasak and the traveler's world ambassador @sweetsssj in steemit who has a hobby of traveling, whatever preparation I did before the journey began.
Here we go guys !!!
Planning and Management before traveling
Planning is important and absolute, as this is the starting point of all the adventure in a location that is likely never known by a traveling. Mature planning not only provides a background location to be addressed but also the provision of knowledge to deal with problems that may occur.
The value in this file is just an illustration, but I use this file to calculate the cost I will need when Traveling. And every value that I have imputed to this I get from some articles on the internet, and we can not 100% make it a reference as all that can change.
Travel planning process includes :
- Specify the destination place or country to go.
And finally I choose to go to malaysia as my destination this time.
- Determining what to do there: just walking, studying culture, courses, learning, conferences, shopping, etc.?
My goal to go to malaysia just to travel alone and shopping some souvenirs.
- Looking for information about the destination.
- The social, economic and political conditions of the country or location of destination. Is it safe to travel there?
- Administrative requirements : Passport, need visa or not, how to apply visa, how the requirements, travel insurance, currency, permit etc.
- Natural conditions: weather, season, distance between cities, availability of transportation
- Accommodation: where will stay, how far from the city, how the conditions of residence, who the owner (if must stay at home people), how far from the shopping center / store (minimal for foraging), language, telecommunication network etc.
Arriving at KLIA Airport (Kuala Lumpur International Airport), the most important thing I need is an internet card as my communication tool with Apartment owners who have already booked my first app or web Booking.com
With the application or visit the web we can easily to determine where we want to stay, we also can find out how the circumstances surrounding the apartment we booked, and we can also find information about how far the distance from the apartment with the place that our goal.
- Budget: tickets, transportation during traveler, lodging, meals, daily necessities.
And these are some of my handles that have been converted into Malaysian currency. I immediately exchange it at the exchange of money in Indonesia, because we will be a little difficult if there we want to exchange it.
- Source of Funding: how much, from where the source.
I am very grateful to STEEMIT especially the Indonesian Curators of @Levycore and @Aiqabrago who have made Indonesia know STEEMIT very well. The hard work they did made my life change and the whole of Indonesia steemian of course.
Because most of the funds I use for traveling are from STEEMIT.
## Information that a traveler must know ![image]() Some of this information can be searched from the internet by accessing the place / country that we want to go via google or via wikitravel or some other sites. Besides via the Internet, books on traveling such as Lonely Planet can be used as a reference, as well as seeking information and ask people who have gone to the place.
Travel Management becomes a traveler
Travel management is the most important thing in traveling with a low budget. Limited cost and time require backpacker to manage cost, time and need carefully and precisely and economically.
Why it is important, the example of tickets, cheap tickets can usually be purchased at the time of promo or long ago. To get a promo ticket, you must be diligent in checking the airline website. There are some low budget airlines like Air Asia, Cebu, TigerAir, Jetstar who often provide promo tickets or tickets at cheap rates. Sometimes big airlines also do promotions with special prices in certain seasons. To facilitate it's good you subscribe certain airlines who regularly send newsletters. Get used to reading terms and conditions when you buy a ticket. This is important if you should delay the trip or for example the flight is canceled.
Traveler also need Time management
Time management becomes important especially if you have other activities such as work or school. Doing good planning and management will give you some flexibility to travel easily, cheaply and comfortably. For example, during school holidays, ticket and accommodation prices tend to be expensive, but on the other hand, during the school season ticket and accommodation prices tend to go down and are very cheap.
Summer (Summer) is usually not the right time to travel to countries with 4 seasons, because generally summer is the peak density for travel activities. On the other hand, winter (winter) is not the right time to visit, even though it is likely to be cheap, for people unfamiliar with cold weather. Likewise when the country you are going to is a big tournament like the world cup or Olympics. Transportation and accommodation will rise in price. These conditions will have an impact on the costs you have to spend.
Traveler urgently needs a Travel Schedule
Travel itinerary is another thing you should prepare. The regular itinerary will make it easier for you to manage your time and money. Make it a habit to arrange travel itinerary or itinerary before you leave. Make a list of places you will visit. If you have time to check location via map or access to google map. By planning a good schedule, then your travel time and cost becomes more efficient. Some of the sights are likely to lie in one location and close together. So you do not need to spend extra for transportation.
Online transportation becomes one of the best solutions for us, I myself use this application as my transportation during my stay in Malaysia.
Explore in Aquaria KLCC
This place is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle bustle and can be reached on foot from the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, and is the most advanced aquarium featuring 5,000 different aquatic and terrestrial animals in multi-level spaces scattered at Concourse Level, Kuala Lumpur Convention Center.
This is the entrance ticket for 2 adults, because my child is under 2 years old, so the entrance is free.
Immerse yourself in a pervasive water experience (without getting your feet wet!) Since you entered Aquaria KLCC. An educational chart depicting the flow of natural water flowing from the plateau into rivers and deep seas, is designed to help visitors appreciate water as a habitat and ecosystem.
From the tropical waters of the Asian region to the tropical forests of the world, Aquaria KLCC takes you on a journey to reveal the natural beauty of aquatic life as well as the unique behavior of animals and animals crawling on the water.
Fly with butterflies in butterfly park
Butterfly park is a place to visit when arriving in kuala lumpur. adjacent to the state mosque, it is not wrong to spend a little time looking at the beauty of flora and fauna
This place is quite spacious and has a large collection of butterflies, it is perfect if you invite children to learn about the nature and habitat of butterflies.
Play and study at the KLCC bird park
KLCC Bird park is adjacent to the botanical garden and butterfly garden, here there are many species of birds or poultry that exist in the world, including flaminggo and ostriches are also in this park.
Map of the bird park illustration
My daughter plays with peacock in a bird park, she is very enthusiastic about this bird.
It would be very nice if we are in this bird area, they are one of the birds very familiar with human, we just give a bird feed then they will come near us, even they will stand in our hands and on our shoulders.
Waaaw ,, very beautiful not when the peacocks open their tail into flower like that, usually they do that to attract the female peacock's heart. How lucky we were to see him live.
And also in this park there are some kind of adorable owls, like the photo above. As he has become a habit during the day he will fall asleep but at night they will roam for their prey.
How happy my heart can make this my daughter happy, I took a photo when she was looking at a pheasant standing nearby.
And this photo I took from a distance, this is a flaminggo bird, he usually plays close to a small pond or small lake so it does not allow us to approach it, this bird also includes friendly birds.
There are so many birds there so highly recomended once for you who want to travel with your family, here our children will get some education about various kinds of birds.
For admission this park is quite expensive, but it all paid off with its beautiful scenery in this park and a lot of birds that have a beautiful color.
The amazing KLCC twin towers as a landmark
Here is the main center of the most crowded of tourists who take pictures with this twin towers, twin towers are a landmark for Malaysia, this building is also an icon in this country.
The splendor in the show with twin towers is very amazing, with a modern shape, especially at night this building will look more attractive where many lights that make this building look very beautiful both from a distance or close.
The term who is on holiday to Malaysia but not photographed here then he has not gone to Malaysia.
Information about the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia is a pair of twin towers that once became the tallest building in the world in 1998 - 2004.
Architectural: 4,519 m
Roof: 3,786 m
Number of floors: 88 (+5 underground)
The Petronas Twin Towers hold the title as the tallest building from 1998 to 2004 based on measurements from the main entrance floor to the top structure.
The 86th floor is a place of observation that provides an amazing view.
Skywalk on floors 42 and 43 is also the world's highest sky-bridge connecting the two towers.
The 452m high building has 88 floors.
This is a picture of my daughter who is amazing.
Above is a fountain video that dances to the music in the back garden of the twin towers, with the lights that make this dance water make it look very beautiful and make our eyes stunned for an hour.
I took this photo from my bedroom, a magnificent view when the night came and made our night feel special.
Enjoyed the shopping paradise at Pavilion Kuala lumpur
Like the artist is walking in a big mall.
This is me and my daughter who was sitting resting for a while while waiting for my wife to spend goods that are getting big discounts.
Pavilion Kuala Lumpur is a favorite spot for all the tourists who come here for shopping, the pavilion is adjacent to the petronas twin towers, and is on the streets of the star hill.
Waoooo ..... How beautiful my wife is, from the look on her face how happy she is to be able to play to Malaysia, she never dreamed of being able to go abroad.
Tokyo Street is one of the best places within the Pavilion of Kuala Lumpur right on the top floor, in this Pavilion there is also a special place to sell everything like clothes, toys, etc. with the theme of marvel.
Many of the heroes we know in marvel, they are all here, but at this marvel outlet we have to prepare a lot of money because the price and quality of goods here is very expensive and good.
Back to Tokyo Street, this place all the outlets that are in it nuanced japan and there is also a Japanese restaurant which is typical of japanese food of course.
And, the best of Tokyo Street is there is an Outlet called DAISO JAPAN, which in it lots of unique items and various kitchen utensils, artisan tools, stationery and electronic goods of high quality but the price quite fantastic, only RM 5.90 / pcs from every item therein.
I highly recommend all of you who want to travel to Malaysia to be able to visit this place.
Hunting souvenirs from neighboring countries.
Petaling Street or China town is a paradise for tourists looking for unique and cheap souvenirs or souvenirs. There are many things that we can get there such as clothing, key chains, shoes, electronics, jewelry, and many more that we can get here of course with a very affordable price and high quality, I make sure you will not be disappointed with the quality offered here.
In addition to China Town there is also a place that sells various kinds of unique goods that is in the Central Market located not far from China Town, we can walk from China Town to Central Market this. This is the photo I took on the front of the Central Market or the entrance.
And on this photo I took from inside the 2nd floor market building building, To my knowledge this building only has 2 floors which on the 1st floor sells many unique items such as key chains, bags made of batik, gems, unique necklaces and bracelets, walls and tables, chocolates and more.
While on the 2nd floor there are also many unique souvenirs that we can get, but on this floor is dominant with cloth and clothing.
## Traveler List ![image]()
Luggage management also needs attention. Many airlines apply low price ticket rules with a note you are prohibited from carrying luggage dibagasi, just just a cabin bag or carry-on bag only. So you need to pay attention to this provision, if you still want to travel at a low cost. Luggage management is very useful, especially if you travel a lot on foot. The heavier the burden of your congenital, the more weight that should be supported by your body. Decide what to bring and how much, will make it easier for you to travel comfortably. Remember the more you carry the more luggage you have to keep. Choose clothes and shoes that are comfortable and do not require special care. Bring personal needs like medicines to taste. Prepare locks and locks for your bag, if you have to stay with sharing. Make a list of luggage to be neat and avoid the stuff left behind or interchanged.
## The traveler must also control himself ![image]() Management yourself well. Many events, people will be crazy and forget the commitment and purpose of traveling. Self-management and commitment are especially important in managing emotions. Usually for beginners or people who first visited keseatu destination, will lose control when seeing the place and good stuff. The best way is to discipline yourself to focus on a pre-made schedule. We can be flexible with the schedule we make, but back again, if you are too flexible the possibilities of what you want to see and do are not met. You may have to pay extra for the trip.
What did the Traveler prepare?
If you are able to determine where to go and get enough information, it's time to make travel arrangements including buying tickets, taking care of licensing and arranging travel itineraries. Make sure everything is neatly arranged and fulfill what you want to do and see. Taking care of everything yourself will be cheaper than using the services of others. Prepare a list of luggage. It sounds funny if we have to compose luggage, but if you do, this list will help you keep an eye on your luggage during the trip.
Start looking for cheap hotel rate info or lodgings at hostelbookers or hostelworld. The cheapest are generally dormitory rooms, roundabout, can be 6 to 10 people in one room. We pay per bed / night. If staying in the dormitory room, preferably during sleep, valuables, gadgets etc stored in the deposit box. Usually we are required a deposit for the deposit box, and the money will be refunded when we check out of the hostel.
Familiarize yourself to read the available information. Reading is one of the weaknesses of Indonesians. Usually Indonesian people are lazy to read. There is a lot of very useful information that is often overlooked by us because we are lazy to read. Familiarize yourself to read because it provides many advantages when we travel.
