As usual, we bought our
ticket through Air Asia during promotion period. The price for 1 person is RM
271. We also bought 20 kg baggage ( go & back) last minute because I
worried i brought too much of things. it costs us RM 134.
Accommodation
We spent quite some times in choosing which hotel
to stay because it has too many good deals on booking.com ! At last, I make up
my mind by choosing Greenhost Boutique Hostel ! The best choice that we had
ever made ! Eco-friendly environment, Wonderful ambience, Friendly staff, and
more ! I fell in love with the design of this hotel ! Definitely must check it
out, guys !

Location:
Jalan Prawirotaman 2
There
are quite a number of people asking me on where to stay in Jogja ! Here's some
tips:
There
are two famous areas in the City of Jogja:
1) Prawirotaman Street
- A place which full of Ang Mo tourists
- There are a lot of restaurants and cafes
along Jalan Prawirotaman Street 1
- Food at every restaurant are equally delicious
- The streets are more quiet and peaceful
compare to Malioboro Street
2) Malioboro
Street
- Its very happening during days and nights
- A must visit place in Jogja
- A street full of restaurants, shops, souvenirs store
& mall
- Take care of your own belongings when you visit here
- Remind me of Jonker Street, Melaka
- Freaking jam on the weekend

the best thing, isn’t it 😊
