Its My Life.....

Less than 15 mns we have reached the point we are suppose to get down. Charge came around 13-15 Singapore dollars including night surcharge. Rajiv Sir and Praveenji took the responsibility to locate the hostel as there were no one to help us to locate the hostel. It is written in the mail that it is just behind Fragrance hotel. But for us it is a great task as we are quite new. At the end we could find the hostel. It was very near to us, forwhich we wandered in the early morning around 30mns. When we moved to the hostel Amigo, a small letter box welcomed us. We had instructions from the hostel owner that the room key is kept in the letterbox. The letterbox had a number lock. Got the key to enter in Amigo. A plight of steep steps were smiling on us. Climbed up and up with heavy bags. Our room was in second floor. Again there is another lock, where we have to press the secret code to open the door. If you forget you can open the door. Opened the door, rushed to the room, ya , it is

Date 10.07.2010 . It was the last day of our conference in Kuala Lumpur. Waiting for a freak out to Singapore. We were waiting for the clock to tick 9.30pm so as to move to the Imbi station from where we have to catch a bus to Singapore . First Shock, Bukit Bintang station has given us. We were waiting for the train to come, as we had hefty baggage, everyone near to us were looking us like who are these mad guys to travel in a highspeed metro. Our tension gone up as meantime one train didn’t stop in our station. The station is crowded, every one is looking for the next train. Imbi station is only 7-10 mns but my problem was how I can get don with the luggage as the stoppage is less than a minute. Train came at around 950 p.m and there was a mad rush from my side. Surprisingly other pax were pity on me, as they gave me space to keep it in, i am doubtful, same never happens in India. when the train started moving I looked for my friends. Thank god there also in..Without any problem

International Travel in Cow Class…..with full of Indians… think twice… Location : Kula Lumpur Low Cost Terminal easy to call LCCT. thousands of people travel from here to different part of the world. We were waiting at the main waiting room to see the boarding time. Departure time is 2.30 p.m. Baggage X Ray is is done and check in procedures are over. Another one hour. 2.00 p.m.: gates to boarding place was opened . Less than 50 chairs. Two –three duty free shops. All are crowded. That’s it.An international airport where there is no duty free area near to boarding gates. As we are first time travelers to Malaysia it was a big disappointment. Pls don’t think that I had a huge shopping budget, but atleast I thought to buy two bottles of Johny Walker. The rates are also high. The boarding point is crowded with passengers. Busy selection of branded perfumes, cigars, liquor are going on. All are upset because there is no time for shopping as the boarding is already started . Counters

When we four of us landed up in Kuala Lumpur a smell of strangeness felt everywhere. Our bus driver was kind enough to drop us exactly in front of the Hostel/hotel. Time : 2.00 am, local time in Kuala Lumpur. We are still going with Indian standard time that’s 11.30 p.m in India. The city seems to be alive, people, vehicles, restaurants and shops everywhere lights and movement. The small glow board of Paradiso guided us to take the steep steps up to the reception. A clean shaven young man came up from the reception opened the door. We show our booking and soon he guided us to the room. I felt odd when our foot wears removed at the entrance. Then we moved to the room. A two tier 4 beded room. AC seems to be not functioning. Thrown our bags one side of the room and opened the curtain a telescreen at the opposite. The monorail track and station just opposite. Slipped in to the sleep and when we woke up it was 11 am in Kula Lumpur. Rushed to the bathroom. Small clean washroom. But the
