Being a traveler is not always smooth like we want, there must be challenges faced. As people often say, if you do not want stuck with the hanky panky travel matters better use the travel services. But for me personally, every challenge that I encountered on every trip is an exciting thing that sometimes can be a fun story material.

These fun stories sometimes I write it into my blog. During my trip I am facing some exciting events that will most likely also been experienced by every traveler. But how to deal with this challenge every individual must have own way. For example when i  visiting Thailand for the first time, I had lost during the day and at that time I still can not read maps. As a result I experienced disorientation and eventually ended up at the hotel for whole day and did not want to go everywhere.

I think it’s common for a new traveler, although I was prepared myself with a variety of information about the country. When I arrived in Bangkok I immediately panic ahead of seeing each post using the Thai script and everyone I asked no one could speak English plus I was not too good at reading maps at that time. In such circumstances and that’s my first trip to the country, quickly panic attack and I gave up and finally back to the hostel.

From these circumstances I have learned to be more patient and able to adapt to every situation and learn how to read maps. After I started to calm down and not panic, the next day I went around the city of Bangkok easily without any problem; even though I meet some people wanting to do scamming to me.

Moral lesson I learned from every trip made me wiser in seeing any difference. By doing traveling I could see the world from a different side with a broader perspective and feel grateful I live in Indonesia.
