Honeymoon

I am now a wife. Alhamdulillah. Will definitely write a special post for that. Can we skip that for now? hehe.

Honeymoon. As exciting as it sounds :P I am so excited to share about my experience. But don't worry this is not going to be a fishy2 mushy2 geli2 post. I am hopelessly not that type as for now especially in public :P (well who knows I'm going to be one later? kahkah)

I believe most couple has their own preference in choosing their honeymoon destinations. Some might prefer to be city, rural area, beach, highlands and etc. It also depends on time constraint, cost, interests and blablabla. But for me, I personally had no 'dream honeymoon' or whatsoever. I have a super long list for my vacation destinations, dari Malaysia sampai la ke bulan :P But never cross my mind to make them my honeymoon destination.

Me and my husband (I still feel weird to call him husband) never discuss about this honeymoon thingy. Not until the very last month before our marriage. Itu pon lepas kawan kawan rapat sye tanya about our honeymoon plan. Knowing me, I always have plan here and there, book tiket, study airbnb ahhh that is sooo my thing. But not this time. Awkward gila nak cakap pasal honeymoon sebelum kawin. Or is it just me? kahkahkah

Due to a few circumstances seperti duit yang dah banyak habis, bekalan cuti yang tak berapa banyak, masa yang suntuk, and a lot more... we were left with not much choices. My one and only criteria was "I don't wanna look tanned since the reception at my husband's side is a month after my side, so  anything related to sun is a big NO NO." kahkah poyo tak. But husband thinks beach/ island is so lovely and romantic for honeymoon. Which I doubted a bit earlier, but I am totally agree with him now :D So husband buat research sikit2 and promised me there will be no water activities, no sunbathing and etc. So don't worry I wont look darker than I am, after the honeymoon. haha.

Banyak sebenarnya island and beach cantik dlm Malaysia but we filtered out Sabah sebab tak sempat beli flight tix and we also filtered out Terengganu because we can always go there later :P so that was like taken out a big chunk of all the islands in Malaysia. Husband also preferred to go somewhere not too far, he didn't want to spend much time on the road. Buttt surprisinglyyy, we discovered that there was a private island near Pangkor yang sangat cantikk, rare and tak pernah didengari. Easily reached, cantik, an island, and affordable price. Anddd we go for it! Introducing to youuu, my honeymoon destination, Pangkor Laut, Perak, Malaysia. kekekeke. It's quite near to Pulau Pangkor, but it's totally a separate island, a private one ok. Sangat bertepatan with its tagline, One Island One Resort. Gituuuu.

Husband made a reservation a few weeks before, which was kinda late anddd we had to pay the GST urghh menyesal. Tu la malu malu nak cakap pasal honeymoon konon lepas tu rugi kene bayar GST. Padan muka thanks! T_T. The total expense is around RM1800 for 3 days 2 nights for 2 persons including breakfast, lunch and dinner. I first thought it's quite expensive, yelah slalu duduk hotel bajet jee, but if you ask me now, It is really worth every penny spent. Tak tipu. It is even cheappp for a luxury 5 stars hotel. Whyyy? Sebab best sangattt from the services, staff, room, food, ambiance, view and everythinggg. Stay tuneee I'm gonna share about Pangkor Laut in the next post. Promise! (berapa kali janji dah, tolong la jangan percaya haha)
