Hari ni dah masuk almost 2 bulan tinggal di Aberdeen, Scotland.

Post sebelum ni kita dah cerita tentang perkara penting yang nak buat sebelum berlepas ke Aberdeen. Nak2 pulak time pandemic ni. Jadi bila dah sampai tu apa yang kena buat eh??

Jom tengok apa yang (kami rasa) penting bila sampai sini:

1. Check rumah: Bila dah sampai rumah sewa, make sure semak dulu keadaan rumah, kunci, apa yang dapat, dan semua macam dalam iklan. check jugak meter elekrik/gas (pastu tulis bacaan). ni supaya nanti bila dah duduk baru perasan ada macam2 yang kurang. huhu.
2. Bil api/air: Dekat sini bil elektrik/gas and air kena daftar sendiri. Jadi cepat2 daftar supaya nnt tak terkejut bil api/gas tinggi sebab tak daftar. Untuk daftar bil elektrik dia macam kita nak beli pakej telefon. haa, boleh semak kat sini > https://www.moneysupermarket.com. Untuk bil air jgn lupa daftar dekat local council. Semuanya dalam talian. Jadi lepas daftar tunggu la bil sampai. huhu.
3. Internet: ha ni pon penting. boleh layar website kat atas tadi, cari jugak pakej internet yang berkenan. kalau boleh buat awal jgk sbb nak pasang tu amek masa jugak tengok tarikh yang ada. jadi lagi cepat lagi bagus.
4. Telefon: Okeh satu lagi yang penting sebab dah sampai mesti rindu keluarga kat Malaysia, jadi nak update diorg yang dah sampai kena ada simcard sini. sbb dah tak boleh pakai dah kan. Jadi apa boleh kita buat? selalunya, kalau buat visa ke, tempat visa tu dia akan bagi simcard siap2 free utk pakai sementara waktu. Jadi boleh guna yang tu. kalau tak nnt cari je simcard dekat kedai yang berkaitan lepas tu topup macam biasa.

Okeh ni antara yang penting kena tengok bila dah sampai nnt selain nak beli barang2 rumah. Next post, kita tengok tempat2 yang boleh beli barang rumah ya berdekatan Aberdeen ni. Enjoy!

1. Renew passport – Most important thing check your passport, better to have the validity date past your tenure abroad.
2. Other Documentation – Please make sure you comply to the prevailing travel requirement. (nak elak stranded or denied boarding nnt)
3. Accommodation – It is best if you could secure your accommodation prior to arrival. Boleh tengok dekat online application such as Zoopla or Rightmove. You can directly contact the agent or better to reach someone who already in the country to help you (viewing, confirm etc.). We managed to sign the agreement while in Malaysia and once we arrived, the unit is ready to move in.
4. Bank Account – It is also best to have an international account so that you can make any transfer locally. For us, we register to Wise application. So far it is easy and secured. Even I can order a debit card to spend in Aberdeen.

Upon travelling have some cash with you but not too much. Most of transactions we saw using card rather than cash. If you are travelling with transit, it better to spare some cash for the local currency (for food etc.). Example, if you transit in AMS, you can use GBP but most probably the will return the change in EUR.

That is all for now! Happy travelling! :)

It’s been almost three weeks since I’ve been settling in to my new surroundings, and so far so good.

A city that is quiet, friendly, and less crowded. We are staying close to the University and the City, and we spend most of our time walking around the area.

Nonetheless, rindu Malaysia. haha.

Sharing with you guys all the sedap foods you may want to try! :D

Here we go… 2013 has came…

2012 had left me full of happiness and sad moments. Full of challenges, full of experiences. Be it sad or happy thing, those experiences should be fully ‘utilized’ to improve our current life.

the first day of the year has been a kick-start, a starting line for everyone to achieve their visions and aims made in the year before. what are the common aims?? hehehe…

1. Getting married (who doesn’t want this, leave a comment :P)

2. Stop/quit this and that…

3. Earn more money (I dream this so badly. hehe.)

4. Own a house, big car bla bla..

But then, having those dreams in mind is not a sin. Yes please dream a lot but do not harm other people. Live your life at the moment to the fullest and be happy!

**dah tulis lama tapi baru nak post. he he he. xoxo :P

Fuhh, berhabuk dah page ni.. Tba2 tergerak nak bukak balik..

Dulu kerja ahli geologi (rugi berenti kalau tak jadi geng izyan juara masterchef dah.. Sob2) skang tak lagi. Setahun kerja kt tempat baru ni, nnt boleh post ‘A Year as Government Servant’. Huhu.

Masuk skang dah dekat 4 bulan kerja sebagai pegawai S41. Macam2 perkara baru yang aku nampak. Jeng jeng jeng.. To be honest, masuk gomen (government :p) aku culture shock sket. Mmg jauh beza. Mungkin aku sendiri seorang yg ssh nak adapt environment baru. Hehe.

Anyway, ssh senang positif negatif you have to go on with what you have right now. Cuba ikhlas kan diri so bende yang susah jadi senang. Sape2 yang nak masuk gomen think carefully. Plan your life (lol. Konon macam ape je)

‘Ya Allah, kuatkan lah hati ini dan diri ini untuk menempuh cabaran di dunia yang penuh dugaan. Amin.’
