Ini traveling paling singkat, paling nekat, paling gila …. Tapi juga paling excited dan paling menyenangkan dari semua traveling-traveling gue sebelumnya. Sama sekali gak ada persiapan kayak traveling-traveling gue yang laen. Sampai-sampai hotel pun gue nggak booking. Ini gara-gara gue jadi korban tiket murah Air Asia … he he he he … begitu nemu ticket return Jakarta – Saigon dari Air Asia yang super duper murah banget, gue kalap tanpa pikir panjang lagi langsung aja gue issued. Baru setelah itu gue sadar mo ngapain 2 hari doang di Saigon … apalagi gue nggak punya siapa-siapa dan nggak kenal siapapun di Saigon. Nggak cuma itu aja yang bikin gue mikir lagi untuk terbang ke Saigon … ternyata application gue di Mercure Resort Sanur diterima dan gue harus mulai masuk kerja pertengahan November. Duuhh … kayaknya nih tiket bakalan mubazir deh … Untungnya gue belum beli tiket Bali - Jakarta.
It were the most short travel, the most brave travel, the most crazy travel … but also the most excited and the most fun travel than I have done before. I don’t have any preparation for this traveling like my previous travel I have done. More over I don’t book any hotel yet. I was one of the victims of Air Asia cheap ticket. I was so panic when see the cheap ticket and issued the ticket online directly without think first. After the online transaction done I just realize that is only 2 days and what I will do in there for 2 days … moreover I don’t know anyone in Saigon. On the other hand, my application to Mercure Resort Sanur accepted and I have to start work in the middle of November. Aaaahhh… I think this ticket will not use as well … lucky me, I didn’t buy a return ticket to Jakarta yet.
Tapi hoki masih tetep di pihak gue … he he he he … Tanpa sengaja gue dapet temen yang tinggal di Saigon dari Facebooknya Mr. Happy. Namanya Thuyvu … xi xi xi xi … susah ya nyebut namanya … gue sampai sekarang juga nggak pernah bisa nyebutin namanya, apalagi mengingatnya. So gue panggil aja TV atau miss Saigon … he he he he … untungnya dia nggak keberatan. Selain itu gue juga dapet banyak informasi tentang kota Ho Chi Minh dari Mr. Happy. Dia kirimin gue buku Lonely Planet tentang kota Ho Chi Minh yang sudah di PDF dan ngasih info hotel-hotel backpacker yang bagus dan murah meriah. Lebih seru lagi Mr. Happy kasih gue advice untuk ngikutin walking tour itinerary yang ada di Lonely Planet. So schedule 2 hari di Saigon bakalan penuh dengan petualangan seru.
But I was lucky ….. he he he he … I got friend who is living in Saigon from facebook of Mr. Happy. Her name is Thuyvu … xi xi xi xi … difficult to say her name … until now I can’t say her name in properly pronunciation. So I call her TV … he he he he … she don’t mind with it. Beside of that I got so many information about Ho Chi Minh city from Mr. Happy. He sent me The Lonely Planet about Ho Chi Minh in PDF and informed me regarding cheap and good backpacker hotels. More excited, Mr. Happy gave me an advised to do the walking tour itinerary in The Lonely Planet book. So my 2 days schedule in Saigon fulfill already with excited adventure.
Ternyata keberuntungan gue nggak sampai disitu. Temen kuliah gue Mey, yang tinggal di Vietnam ngundang gue ke kota Danang tempat dia kerja. Sebenernya lumayan jauh Ho Chi Minh ke Danang. Harus naik pesawat lagi selama satu jam perjalanan. Tapi karena menurut informasi Mey, dari Danang bisa ke kota Hue yang terkenal dengan The Citadel – Forbidden City-nya dan Hoi An yang terkenal karena ke-exsotic-kan dan romantisme kota kunonya dan banyak tempat-tempat bagus lain yang bisa gue datengin ketimbang Saigon. Gue pikir seru juga kalo bisa take one day trip ke sana. Beruntung banget gue dapet tiket murah return dari Jet Star Air cuma VDN 1.065.000 atau sekitar Rp 550.000.

My luck didn’t stop yet on it. “Mey”, my friend when I was studying in Sanata Dharma University who are living in Vietnam invited me to visit Danang city where he is working. Actually Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) to Danang is very far. I should fly for an hour. But base on his information, from Danang city I can go to Hue city where famous with the forbidden city The Citadel like in Beijing China and Hoi An which famous with exotic and romantic ancient town also another nice places where I can visit better than Saigon. So I think will be more excited if I can take one day trip to there. Lucky me, I got very cheap return ticket by Jet Star Air for VDN 1.065.000,00 or about Rp 550.000,00.
