Caffe Sospeso in Italy

Unique tradition for charity in the city of Naples



Maybe you never thought when I was in this city, a habit (more precisely a tradition) that is worthy of being a good example of modern life. You will be surprised to see their views.

The Italians consider coffee is not just a black colored water, drinking coffee has a strong sense of togetherness among fellow coffee lovers.


A barista said at a cafe, we listen, in Naples, people bought two cups of coffee but only one is taken, while the other one is saved or suspend. If there are other people who have not known, he/she could enjoy the coffee that has been ordered to share.

Napoli and Pompeii

Napoli is not always about football, there are great things about Pompeii



If you like archeological adventure, certainly can be a little bit forget about the city by the sea, the hills and this sea scented atmosphere, because you can find the ruins of Pompeii which was buried eruption of Vesuvius.

This legendary mountain is a famous in Napoli (Naples in English), volcano which erupted violently in the year AD 79.


Want to get there? Use the tram to Stazione Centrale, then continue riding the train Circumvesuviana, then switch to a bus that will take us on a short distance to Mount Vesuvius.

It's a long trip to walk when climbing to the top of the mountain.

Napoli, City by the Sea

Unlike the people who are in the northern region of Italy



They are more open and like to say "hello", the nature and behavior of the people who seem close to us, the backpacker. That's interesting, isn't it?


Beautiful city with incredible scenery, if you join with me here. Should I tell through these images alone, what can I say.


I have said earlier, it is tempting Italian cuisine, one of which is the pizza of Naples. Yummy!


Naples, a city located near the sea, hills, and the harbor. No need to tell you its beauty, you can only see in the movies. Cool.

Cruise Ship dock in Napoli

City in southern Italy, known as its Archaeological Tour and remember about Pompeii



Before I walk in this city, very comfortable to enjoy the atmosphere in the harbor where the ship is docked.


A friend immediately took pictures around, but can not wait to find the lemon squeezed juice.


Ah, you know this city is also known producing lemons, don't be surprised if I had been thinking about it ever since from the ship? What else? Italian culinary certainly promises something fun, isn’t it?

We just walked and walked in the city, with a charming part of the building, on the west Karlstor, in the south Sendlingertor and on the east Isartor, forming an arch.

Train Service to Munich

An alternative to the city center of Munich in addition to taxi at a cost of 70 euros one-trip



Although the air becomes painfully biting pores of the body, we have to keep moving. Coffee and croissants is enough to warm the body. We headed to the train booth located in Terminal 1, opposite to the Terminal 2 where we landed.

Tickets Underground Bahn canal (valid only a day) for 19 euros for a group of 3 people. There are 2 line to get to the city center of Munich, Gleis S1 (or track S1) and S8.

Gleis S1 leading to the city center, the Karlsplatz or Marienplatz is a detour, compared to Gleis 8 which is a shorter path. It's okay if further journey, for we all be an interesting experience in a distant land.

Cold air greeted me at the airport of Munich

One of the busiest airports and the Best in the World 2013



The cold air hit my face when the plane door opened, probably around 1-2 degrees Celsius, but there is no other way to immediately walk into the lobby of arrival.

A long way down the hall Terminal 2 Munich International Airport, waiting for some other friends who use other airlines, it was still early.


Trust me you will feel hungry, let's look for snacks and coffee. True, there is a coffee shop, we immediately bought a piece of hot coffee and croissants.

Oh, advice to friends who visit this city, if you want to buy something, prepare small money/coins so that transactions in stores can run smoothly.

Challenging High Stairways of Sacre Cour

Great church with incredible architecture



My friend can not wait to reach this place, after a walk in the city with its busy and traffic jams. Each rider who raced through the other.

"Tiring ...," but the more surprised to see the staircase that seems challenging. High enough to go up there, I think it's a great experience in this city. Great place with extraordinary architecture, beautiful!

When it reaches its height, the view from Sacre Cour very surprising, Paris from the heights.

Eiffel in Paris

Paris is always synonymous with this tower



I think it's time to take a picture of this magnificent tower as high as 325 meters to the sky, although it has too often I see it on various occasions in various media. I wanted to take its own figure of the tower building.


While waiting on a place, my position is quite right to take the picture. Iron tower built on the Champ de Mars beside the Seine River - which divides the city of Paris.

You certainly want to see it with me from here, I feel just grandeur.

Rocky Bay which is not always rocky

One of the most beautiful beaches in Hong Kong



The opportunity to meet with some friends in this town, an appointment, while the left and right on the highway that passed by the bus numbered 9, it appears green expanse on either side of the road, a golf course. Sunday fun while enjoying the sunshine, although the wind still feels pretty cool.

Shek O Beach in Hong Kong presents a view of the blue sea in the distance, unlike the literal sense, rocky coves. Peninsula on the south coast region of Hong Kong, facing the South China Sea and a beautiful stretch of sand in my opinion.


I thought you would say the same thing about its beauty.

Pizza in Venice

Cool afternoon in the city with water



A large canal crowded with gondolas, vaporetto, and giant green dome of the Church of San Simeone Piccolo in the distance, lay in front of the eye. I'm waiting for a friend who had not yet arrived, fortunately after a moment he arrived carrying a pizza, wow... Yummy!

Stalls line the streets selling beautiful creations-beautiful mask, may be there is a celebration, a carnival in the city of water canal, I forgot to ask. Masquerade or costume party, and very festive.

Santorini which Makes Me Speechless

White color dominates the minimalist style buildings



When the plane arrived at the airport Santorini National Airport, in the islands of Cyclades, I was just imagining the charming antique buildings for such a long time, like viewing pictures on my laptop.


The white color is present everywhere, of course they have a purpose, in order to reduce heat from sunlight.


Look, a church attached to the blue domes of the church gives the impression of a place that is very shady. Just imagine an opportunity for couples who want to honeymoon.


Sunset! So says friends who've been to this place, indeed charm sunset has become a magnet for anyone who was there. Trust me, you do not want to pass the chance of taking good pictures at this place.

Somehow thus always delivered by friends who've been there. Beautiful tourist area, she said.

People's Market in Frankston North, Australia

More affordable price when evening arrived, after three o'clock




A popular market of fun, you can present there, a hawker style food market that sells a variety of goods, fruits and vegetables, flowers, clothes, trinkets, and of course the food, the price is not too expensive.

Thursday was a day for a people's market, the Thursday Market or sometimes called 'shock market', because previously there was no market in this place. Activities like a market that suddenly present since morning and immediately the transaction with the buyer who was passing by.



An afternoon at about 4pm on the streets, to the Frankston shopping center, a large shopping center and attractive in Frankston, I take the bus abuzz with the other passengers, the passengers that I do not recognize, risk, during the husband there, patiently, taught to drive, and I patiently, for some reason I always do not dare to learn driving a vehicle.



At that time it was still early, about 10 am, the atmosphere of the shopping center across from me started to show its activity, while the sellers offer their goods along the way. Sellers are very enthusiastic, but I waited until late afternoon, at 3 pm, that's the best time to get a more attractive price and certainly cheaper.



Time has passed, do not expect by anyone, isn't it? There is always a way, subscribe to public transportation, when shopping, Dad was driving, and all goes well.



This is the best time to buy yellow flowers for beloved mother, for the father, and of course the Herald Sun.
