First week

 

In the first week, we met colleagues from US, Brazil and China. We instantly clicked. Till today, we had lots of fun together, went to lunch, dinner and travel together.

Our first dinner together was at a Chinese restaurant just beside Ericsson office in Rijen. The funny thing is that, all 6 of us couldn't fit into one car. Soo one of them has to actually seat at the boot.One on the way to the restaurant and one on the way back. Kekeke, it was like bringing a illegal immigrant. It is really funny. This is the picture of all of us together.

 

 

 

On that weekend, a few of us went to Amsterdam together. Evs and I depart from our hotel at about 7.30 a.m. We took a train from Tilburg to Amsterdam. But we had to change train and bus in the middle of the way at Hertogenbosch to Utrech Central as there are contructions going on. We meet the others at Amsterdam Central train. From there, we walk to Amsterdam central. We took a canal ride which took about one hour to have an overview on the whole of Amsterdam. It's really fun and the view is stunning!

 

After that, we went to eat at a halal restaurant which sells sharma or we called kebab in Malaysia. It's a big one though. Then after we filled our stomach, we started to walk around the city, along the shopping places. Pass through the Rikjsmuseum, Amsterdam Hard rock cafe, Anne Frank's house, the tulips market and a lot more places on which the pictures on my flickr can tell you. And we had a mint tea. which smells like laksa. :D

 

 

Then on Sunday, as Evs and I have moved into a new hotel or guest house which we are currently staying, we went cycling around the park in Breda. It's another attractive place.

Owh, Nad, I will take the the picture later aight.

 

I have an amazing weekend! Alhamdulillah.

 

Second week

 

Our training continues. This week was on the job training. We are each place on the engineers room. And the view from my room was superb. This is how it looks like.

 

Yesterday, we went to have dinner at an Indonesian restaurant. For Evs and I, it was like...yeeehaaa...We gotta eat some local food. Luckily our USians, Brazil's and Chinese friend loves the food as well as it's delicious. The waiter even greet us " Apa khabar" :D. The restaurant turns out to be a family business and they are originated from Indonesia. We had lots of fun and laughter during the dinner.

 

Tonite, we went for dinner in an Italian restaurant after shopping. Owh yes, I forget to tell you that the shops over here close at 6, except on Thursday and weekends where the shops will open until 9. That's why on Thursdays, you'll find lots of people at the shopping area.

 

Can't wait for this weekend, we'ree going to visit either Belgium or Germany. Will keep ya'll updated. ;)
