Doing an Interview with Travel Agent

Hello everyoneeee!!! Good morning/afternoon/evening. How’s your day been going?

Back again with me, Nadila. And in today’s blog I am gonna share my exciting moment that I’ve never done before to you guys, soo keep on reading.

So on 14th may, my friend and I went to a travel agent / travel tour. I am soooo nervous, because that was my very first time came to a travel agent, I get a little nervous, because I thought the employee were not friendly, but I definitely wrong. The employee there were soooooo friendly. They even answered our question without being in hurry and the way they explained it to us was very very clearly. We went to Ronatama Tour that located in Margonda.

So here’s the question, I ask to them :

So what is Ronatama Tour?

Mba Gita : For Ronatama tour, we are only as a plane ticket seller.

What is the plus point from Ronatama Tour?

Mba Gita : for example through online, now many tour agents who sell their tickets through online sites.

Usually for people whose departure is not far from the day of booking. As for an agent,

for example if there there is someone want to cancel their ticket, they can come here and if they want to

change their schedule and agent is usually more trusted than on the online site. Unless the site is official.  

Can I choose tour package in this travel?

Mba Gita : In this travel we haven’t been able for package tours, we only sell the plane tickets.

For domestic flights only. 

How is the payment method?

Mba gita : We served cash, credit cards and transfers.

If I had to cancel my order, Can I cancel my order?

Mba gita : of course you can, but you will be get charged.

Whether booking note from this travel need to be printed?

 Mba gita : you dont have to print it, Because at the airport you only need to show the booking note,

 if you want to print that’s okay, We used the blank back then but now we can only show the booking code

and we can use the plane.   

Thank you Mba gita for answering my question, sorry for for interrupting your time

Mba gita : thats okay

 (me and Mba Gita :D)

                                                            (me from the outside hehehe)

ps : my friends are the one who captured me hehehehe.

New Experience in Bali

            Hello everyone! Come back with me and my another extraordinary experience of travel or tourism (whatever you want to say it!) and this time is gonna be sooooo as interesting as the others (as for me) ok guys so I really am can’t wait to tell you what’s in my mind, lets get starteeeeeeed!

            

            It’s about 2 years ago my friends and I were went to Bali! Let me repeat again, we were went to Bali. Oh my god I am so excited, eventhough we went there with teachers and another students (yeah its a study tour) but I don’t care, as long as I am with my friends of course. The trip was started from Depok, I sat with my very close friend named Zhazha, and around me theyre my friends but not as close zhazha. In the trip we were talking about anything, laughed about silly things, got angry each others its a friendship stuff you know.

            

            But the trip wasn’t straight direcly to Bali, but we step aside to other places, such as Tasikmalaya, Solo, and so on oh my god I can’t remember. I felt so much fun while in the trip, because my boy-friends were so funnnyyy!! They always told me silly jokes and made me laughed so hard for everything they did, and they made my trip so unforgetableee!!

            

             Lets skip to the story when I arrived at Bali  (I cant remember the full story honestly, forgive me) we went there by ship. Honestly, I am so afraid with the sea or more specifically with the high seas, I dont know why but its just frightened all of my body, I don’t know the end of the sea they’re just like so wide and deep blue, and its just so scared me. it took for about 45 minutes from surabaya to bali using ship (if I’m not mistaken). We finally arrived at Bali oh my god im so excitedddd because i’ve never been to Bali before and that time was the very first time for me HOW CAN I AM NOT EXCIED!!!!!!

            

           When we arrived we directly went to lovina beach. I got into a bot kind of dory. And that boat oncoming to high seas (not that really high seas) and suddenly the fisherman stopped the boat, and that was so amazing moment for me, because I saw so many dolphins swam and jumped near my boat, I just last for words that time its just so beautiful for me.

          

            After that went to the hotel, to took some rest. The following day we went to dance studio to watched traditional performances such as traditional dances and traditional drama.

            

            The benefit I got from this trip are, I can see such things that I’ve never seen before, new experience, new knowledge and ofcourse to release my stressed.

            So here is my story. See you in my another storyyyy!!!!!!!

Old but Gold at Taman Bunga Nusantara

        First of all I am terribly sorry if the picture that I put in this blog wasn’t mine because I lost all the pictures, so I took it from another website and I will absolutely tell you where I got the pictures below down my blog. Okay! So let’s get started.

        It’s quite an old story but I really loved every moment there so I’m gonna let you know the story. Few years ago I went to Taman Bunga Nusantara that located in Cianjur, Jawa Barat. I went there with my family and my grandparents too, we went there by car. We were a domestic tourists and our purpose were for vacational tourism, it took 6 hours to reached there, it is such a bad idea to came there at eid holidays time because the traffic jam was awful. But, fortunately my grandma such a funny old lady she made jokes for us so we dont feel bored in the car.

        With an extra waiting finally we arrived there, when I arrived there the air was stiil fresh (well I hope until now still the same tho).  There is so many Street vendors that selling their wares such as : roasted corn (the spicy one is my fave), scarf, fresh flowers, gloves, beanie, moci, gemblong, coffee, very cute marchendise and soooooo on. I still remember that I bought a glass of milk because the weather is very cold (well ofcouse its still fresh) and I thought I would be lovely to bought one.

        Before we entering the Taman Bunga we bought the enterance tickets first, each ticket cost 30.000-, rupiahs, Not really expensive I supposed. the first thing I saw inside the Taman Bunga Nusantara is a lovely waterpool with a litlle cute water fountain in the middle (as you can see in the picture), around the waterpool there is a flowers that are arranged into a lovely vast carpet, not only arranged into a carpet but into an animal and trees too. I was so amazed, so I ran to the flowers that arranged into the carpet to took a closer look for every details.

        Not far from the pool area, there is a sign post. From here we can travel Taman Bunga Nusantara overall, such as : Taman Perancis, Air Mancur Musikal, Taman Amerika, Dahlia Corner, wira wiri, Rumah Kaca and Taman Jepang.

        While walking I saw a maze and not far from the maz there is tower where we can see the people walking around the maze from the above. Before I got into the maze I climbed the stairs to get on the tower and from I saw from the tower the maze isn’t that complicated, but people in the maze seem so confused to find a way out. So I thought that would be easy to walking in the maze, so I got into the maze and I got lost............. yes I got lost and confused I’m pretty sure that the way out is right there but it was just a dead end, it took me along time to got out but finally I did get out.

        From the maze I went to the Taman Jepang (fortunately I have a photo in this place). In Taman Jepang I felt like that I am in Japan because of the Decoration made us felt like we are in Japan. That was so interesting.

                                                                 (I took it by myself)

        After exploring Taman Bunga Nusantara I got Tired and decided to recess, but after that my father told us that we be leaving the Taman Bunga soon so after that I came to my father and then we got home. I am so happy that I could exploring the Taman Bunga Nusantara I hope I can do it again next time.!
