The Explorers in us

Majority of Shouters simply love to travel. Going to a brand new location, soak up its culture and take lots of pictures. What makes me say that? Just take a look at the DSLR ownership level at ShoutOutLounge. I mean, getting a DSLR camera is a serious investment! “I’ll be going to plenty of places where lots and lots of photos must be taken!”.

Lets take a look at the places Shouters have travelled for the year 2009. These are the 'semi-official’ ones where Family Photos are taken to indicate ‘Shouters was here’.

Angkor Wat, “City Temple” of Cambodia. aL, Satkuru, Angeline, Emily, Aaron, LeeMay, William travelled there on 18th of January 2009.

Hong Kong, “Fragrant Harbour” of China. Wendy and Hugolim travelled there on 1st May 2009.

Penang, “Pearl of the Orient” of Malaysia. Thily travelled there on 24th May 2009.

Langkawi, “Jewel of Kedah” of Malaysia. David, Evie, Jane, Blurjess, Stevezen, Prettypink, Daniel, Aaron, William travelled there on 19th of June 2009.

 

Road Trip to Penang, “Pearl of the Orient” of Malaysia. Satkuru, Angeline, Blurjess, Aaron and Daniel (not present in photo) jumped onto a car and drive up to Penang on 4th of July 2009.

 

As young adults, we enjoy the freedom we get from our parents to travel to any location we want (as long as we remain responsible). However, there is one problem that comes from being in that age group, money. Most of us are not in a financially stable position, heck, most of our paycheck are just barely enough to sustain our everyday expenses.

So what do we do? Whenever possible we hunt for cheaper travel deals. When is the best time to hunt for it? Matta Fair of course. Guess what, its going to be held in KL on 4 – 6 September 2009. Don’t miss it Shouters!

 

For those going there to hunt for cheap and good travel packages, do take a look at Mayflower’s offers. I was browsing through and found a couple of interesting travel plans. Some of them are:

• 2D1N Penang free & easy : RM83 per person
• 3D2N Langkawi Mutiara : RM320
• 2D1N Kota Kinabalu free & easy : RM80 (Hey! I want this!)
• 4D3N Taiwan Shopping and Hot Springs : RM438
• 4D3N Hong Kong free & easy : RM238 (I want this too!)

Plenty of interesting trips right? As with all promotions, these prices are only available during Matta Fair. So if you have been planning for a trip all along, don’t forget to visit the Mayflower’s booth!

On top of that, there are some cool events lined up by Mayflower too. Maria Cordero (also known as Féi Mā), will be making a special appearance at 2:30pm on 6th of September. She is a singer, chef and an actress from Macau. If that’s not enough, Mayflower is giving away a lot of goodies such as a Nissan Grand Livina worth RM85,665, free trips to Europe, China and Bali for any lucky purchaser. Who knows, you might be getting yourself a cheap and good trip AND bringing home a new car!

Great isn’t? It’s fairs like this that gives young adults like the Shouters ‘access’ to the joy of travelling. Since the fair is just round the corner, I can’t wait to see more where Shouters would travel to next. Hey! Remember to take Family Photos!
