Trip 001: Hostel: Wombat_Vienna

I've came back to Taiwan 4 days~ (since 21 October, 2010),

Jetlag...... hm.... a bit of~ ^^

even there are soooooooo many things have to be finished!

^+++++++^ make notes for this trip is necessary!!!!!!!!!!

it could be regarded as some kinds of feedback (to Backpacker) or just my traveling notes.

whatever, let's start form HOSTEL.

It my first time to stay in a HOSTEL (WOMBAT_Vienna),
(oh man.... I really wanna write in Chinese....  it's easier for me... anyway.... hold on!!!!)

on average, it's a great experience.... :)

To Be Continued ~

1. staff:
I have to say that all staffs are excellent!!!! ^++++++++++^
and I think that staffs of The Base are bits of friendlier than The Lounge~
hm....  though they are all kindness and smiling~
you just can tell the different between true-smiling and smile for business....
ha~ whatever~ in short, they are great!!!! :)
and I have to appreciate to a male staff of The Lounge~
^^ He told me how to find 2 bike stores nearby, so I got some bike-components....

2. room/ internet:
Though it's my first time to stay in a Hostel,
according to some experts' ( of the backpacker) experience,
they all told me that Wombat's rooms and environment are excellent!
and I agree with them.
all right, I wanna complain one thing..... I CANNOT GET WLAN-SIGNAL IN MY ROOM....
so we (people who wanna use free WLAN) have to go to the hostel lounge (on the ground floor)
to use it~
aha~ there are always two sides to every story...
so, perhaps it's another way to make new friends~    ^+++^
(yes~ resulted in it, I made a friend form Germany and he is major in psychology in Vienna now~)
oh~ last thing is beds of The Lounge are better than The Base (on average~)
("Better" because those beds could provide less noise as you turn your body over....).


3. bar
Oh Men.... Today is 09 Nov, 2010.......
^^ I even have not finished my first travelling note.... (shamed)
And even I have so great excuses, like conference reports, grant procedures, progressing reposts, .......
hm..... I just came back from backpackers, so.... ha I have to work hard now!!!!!!!!!
About photos, ahhhhhhhh~~~~ there're ~10 rolls (film) in my fridge....  = =a
anyway, just GOOGLE it, there are so many beautiful photos you can find out on the internet~

ok, abut "BAR",
I have to say, there is not my place! at least in this stage!
I just can not make myself be one of that part,
so I did not spend too much time at there,
what I did just like: "hi, I would like a beer (smile)", "Thank you (smile)" ^^"
so let's PASS this part~

4. social room: backpackers, kitchen, ...
There is a kitchen in The Lounge.
So people usually buy something form nearby markets, and cook by themselves in the kitchen.
This is a wonderful kitchen!
There are everything you need, fridges, hotplates,
free rice, free pasta, salt, cumin, tableware, kitchen knifes, .......
So, just buy something form  a market, and take a bit of time,
then you can enjoy a cheaper and delicious ( of course, this depends on your skill :) ) meal~

by the way, I'm pretty sure that there are not (smoking) alarms!
^^" "cause I stir-fried in Taiwanese way~~~~~~~~~~
That resulted in lots of smoke............................................................. ^^a  

5. breakfast
If you are too lazy to cook~
That's fine, you can still enjoy the Breakfast (all you can eat) provided by the WOMBAT.
And the price is quite fair: 3.5 EUR
(don't know why, the price increased to ~ 4.1 EUR on 20th, OCT'2010).

I would like call it "BRUNCH",
^^  'Cause, we usually ate as many as we can,
and bought some bread (~ 0.8 EUR per bread) before our daily trip~
so you can save at least 4 EUR (for lunch) everyday.....
of course, the saved $ will be used to a luxurious dinner or something like that :)))))

In Wien

I met a Taiwanise in Wombat (a hostel) in Vienna,

He is making his dream, traveling around the world, now,

we exchanged some information about traveling and encourage each other~ :)

What he is dosing evoke me something (dreams & motives) is very important for me.....

but embedded for a while~ = =a

Since it is evoked~ I will do everything I can to make it come true!!!!! ^++++++^

And before the beginning, haha~ I have to enjoy my trip in Vienna first~

You know, enjoy and relax is another important part of life!

ABOUT the WOMBAT in Wien,

it's absolutely a comfortable and convenient hostel,

there are many markets around them (the Base and the Lounge),

and the West train station just located nearby~

all right, I like attendants of the Base more, ^^" just a personal favor,

and Of course, both Base and Lounge's attendants are cordial, sweet, ....
(thank you verrrrrrrrrrrry much~~~~~~~)

hm...... we decided to go to Budapest this afternoon....
(just a notion~ :) )

so it's time to go to bed now~

hope we could get on the OBB-train on time....

have a nice dream~

Movie: Eat, Pray, Love





I love the part of how to learn Italian~

^^ gesture is ver...y important!

unfortunately, you can only see this portion in a theater or rent a DVD home~

on average, this is a nice movie,

but if they can cut the runtime to 2hr ( rather than 2hr 13min)....

I guess it would be more substantial~
