Traveljunkieindonesia.com – I went on a media press trip to Port Stephens. At first I thought, I’ve never been to Port Stephens! I wonder what it’s like there?
The night before the event, I put some playlist into my player music, packed my bag, and all my gear. I was all ready to go.
After that, I felt very calm and I was REALLY looking forward to the next day. A bit like Lebaran really. Or like I was getting graduation ceremony next morning. THAT’S how excited I was.
And believe me, when an opportunity like this comes around, simple things can make me very happy indeed.
The next morning, We all woke up at 6am, breakfast, and check out from Sydney Harbour Marriot. Jumped into the the car and drove to Port Stephens.
My heart so quiet! It was so amazing. I got so much work done. I felt incredible! Ahhh. Simple things. travel blogger happy. Kissbye Sydney, hello Port Stephens.
