Nepal Day 1

By
Reached Kathmandu, Nepal around afternoon (1.30pm or so), transit at Bangkok and bought 1 x cosmetic at Changi Airport Duty Free. Then our friend's friend (guide at Nepal) pass us the Yeti air tickets to Pokhara, of which our flight is around 3+pm. Our guide took us to eat Mo Mo at one of the restaurant nearby and helped us get free cab to the airport for our flight. Thanks. By the time we reached Pokhara, it's already evening le. We checked in to our hotel at Hotel Billabong Garden. Quite ok ba, got bed, toilet and tv. Just that, it's a pretty weird place 'cos hor.. the electricity got problem, every 6 hours no power then 3 hours got power. And it continues... I received flowers and welcome banner at the hotel.

Took Photos for tracking pass and other stuff for trekking to Mustang, Muktinath. 'cos Tourist ma, got more permit to apply haha.. What to do?

Things to take note are:
1. Please bring at least 2 passport photos as well as USD25 per person for the entry visa, the visa last about 15 days only. Not sure how to extend 'cos we didn't stayed that long but heard that it can be extended.
2. At least 4 photos needed per trekking location and of course more money for the pass as well. Around 2.5K Nepal money for that trekking pass and other stuff that we need to apply.
3. Patience is golden... 'cos everything takes time and is fresh & organic.
4. Air tickets to foreigners cost more around USD 92 + 170 Nepal Money air port tax per trip / flight for most airlines.

Monopoly Deal - A Fun Game to Play @ Chalets!

By
I felt that Monopoly Deal is really a fun and challenging game to play, especially at the Chalet. There are many rules to the game, but luckily we had a  monopoly deal rules expert with us to double-click with in event of discrepancy! I feel that it requires strategy and some form of luck to win the game. So far, I always get good property cards sets but it always get taken away 'cos I don't have the "Just say NO" card and it tend to get taken away, especially if I've a complete set. Then, I tried the strategy of not putting up a complete set, then it also doesn't really work 'cos in the end, I don't end up putting my sets on the table. Perhaps, I'll need to play a lot more times and try different methods till I get the idea right I guess. If you do have the chance, try playing that game. It's really exciting, 'cos you'll never know how long will your properties stay with you! As well as, how much money you can have in your hands. T...

Business Network International

By
I went for one of my friends' Business Network International gathering today. It's actually quite interesting, although initially, I'm quite lost. But after some time, then ok le. A new experience I should say, with a group of people that likes whatever each other is going so much and having lots of fun! The people there are really very friendly, so I shall add those that I've talked to into my hotlist then. Just that I'm not too sure if they really remember me :P But after sometime, I'll need to replace my friend for about 2 weeks so it should be ok I guess. The only downside is that. 7.30am is really a tough timing to wake up and go for the meeting. I'm glad I'm there. I'm so blessed!

Shaun Stenning - Story of the Refund Request

By
I'm merely sharing the harsh truth and facts about the refund story started by Shaun Stenning himself. My post is biased toward my personal experience so judge it yourself. First of all, there was originally a blog post in their site to tell us that there will be a refund statement or something that will be send to us some Release Agreement but nothing ever happen other than the acknowledgment email reply which I've received from Shaun: "On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 12:15 PM, Shaun Stenning <shaun.stenning@dollarrose.com> wrote: your refund request has been received, please note that we will not be actioning the request until 1st March 2011 when you will receive the Release Agreement Shaun" After that, I just visited that link again and it has already been removed entirely. It's now loading page not found instead. If you were me, how would you feel?
