Sně?ka can be pronounced as Sni-ej-ka (with Malay pronunciation).
The video is made by Maryam, as usual. Haha. I love to call her Maryam or Yams (she's okay with it, she calls me Nins anyway). I think it is really suit the theme for today. Yum! :D :D
Just because. Hihi.
Eventhough it was my 3rd time here;
2nd time together with Maryam;
and 1st time with the rest...
....I still took a lot of photographs. Random photos. :D
Anyway, Sně?ka is only 1603 meter high but it is the highest point in Czech. It shares the national park with Poland. So, while we were hiking, we need to make sure that the data was not turned on - charges are different with roaming of course.
I will share our hiking experience once Maryam uploaded the video. :)
Adilah mentioned that, "Wahh, Nina. Bertahan lagi ea kamera tu."
Only then I realised oh yea, this compact camera is already 5 years old. I did mentioned in one Slovenia's post that the quality of photos from the compact camera is dropping. Now, I know why. I do use GoPro and phone camera, but my Sony was the first compact camera I've ever bought. The sentimental is different. :)
p/s - Don't forget World Quran Hour today, at 9am (Malaysia time)!

This time, it will be a short post. I'm recovering from post-hiking muscle pain.
It felt good to be outside again, surrounded by tall trees, wind blow, sunshine and friends. Nature provides the negative ions - which has at least four benefits. It was amazing as well to walk between 2 countries; Czech and Poland, and meet elderly who hike with us as well. Gonna do this again. InsyAllah.

Typical Elevators in Czech
September 9, 2016
Elevators simply mean lifts.
I think Malaysians prefer the word lifts, compared to elevators right? This topic may have few parts (I can't promise this though haha) because Czech's elevators are a bit unique!
There is no 'door close' button.
Seriously, I'm not kidding you. The buttons available are only like this. There is a rumor (maybe a fact I don't know) that the 'door close' button has no function actually. But, I think 'door close' button helps closing the elevators' door faster.
And this is another example of Czech's unique elevators. It is still exist and working!
What do you think?

There is a vlogger who I have my respect on and I'm looking forward to witness his contributions to the society.
Aiman Azlan.
Currently, I am really into his works. Maybe because of his daily YouTube videos that are inspiring and mind-opening. So far, he simply shared a lot of common topics that are actually serious if we try to dig deeper.
Procrastination.
Burnt out.
Confidence.
Consistency.
etc.

| Currently reading.. |
And even now, I am still on my way reading his book 'The Other Side of The Coin'. I heard that some people can finish reading it within a day, but not for me. I love this kind of book, as I have the chance to relate many things to my situations and try to see how other people think about the problems and solve them.
The best of people are those who are most beneficial to the society. - TOSOFC
I can agree that he is one of them. :)
Thanks for all the stories that you shared with the subscribers.
When I read those verses, I keep on thinking have I done anything good to the society? Have I contribute anything with the other people? It's hard to say, it's even hard to justify. Hopefully I did something, at least as a daughter, a friend and a student.
And hopefully, this blog is one of the medium. Ameen.
Anyway, I would like to promote this fundraising by a good friend of mine. She was my senior, graduated as a doctor from a university in Olomouc, Czech. And I think many people know her already, from her awesome Instagram and Facebook timelines, with beautiful travelling pictures. But, she is now going beyond that. Other than volunteering in a refugee camp somewhere in Greece few months ago, now she is looking forward for another one.
Let's help the world :)

The Journey of A Risk-Taker to Scotland
September 7, 2016
Well, Scotland was a last-minute plan. Again. Solo. Again. T__T
I bought the ticket on 14th June to fly on 16th June. Niat nak ke Scotland ialah untuk rasa Ramadhan dekat negara lain sambil berkunjung jumpa kawan sambil berpost-exam rehat.

| After a tough night. |
The journey from Hradec Kralove (HK) to Prague Airport was...just wow.
My flight was at 6 am (Thursday) and I planned to take a train about 7 pm (Wednesday). This one was the second last direct train from Hradec Kralove to Prague. Unfortunately....I overslept. Masa ni bulan puasa dan memang biasanya by pukul 5, 6 petang tu dah exhausted menunggu jam masuk Maghrib pukul 9 malam.
It was a night that I think I totally risked my life to variables. It was not okay and I really didn't expect that. But, alhamdulillah, Allah helped me a lot. I learned very important life lessons throughout the incident.
To be a risk-taker maybe a choice and I think I am one of the risk-takers. But, it is not a good thing all the time. It simply means - you exposed yourself to risks and dangers. Then you need to try hard to sort out the situation, try to get out of the challenge and pray for the good outcomes.

| The boarding pass. |
So, I changed the plan to 8 pm train. Ni direct train yang last untuk hari tu. Kalau tak, kena naik train yang transit bandar lain dan risiko terlepas connecting train tu tinggi. T_T
Fuhhh, I thought I was late, sebabnya train bertolak 8.09pm, I arrived at the train station about 8.05pm like that. Ramai pulak orang beratur beli tiket, jadi taknak terlepas train saya plan nak bayar dalam train nanti. Dah naik train bagai, rupanya delay. T_T Nak dekat 15 minit jugak. Dah la tak inform (jarang la jadi macam ni). Kalau tak, boleh turun train balik pergi beli tiket.
Then, masa atas train nak bayar tu, saya ada 2000kc sekeping tu jaaa. Konduktor kata dia taknak terima, sebab harga tiket cuma 100kc. Takde duit baki, kad pun tak terima, nak beli online pun disebabkan train ni dah lepas masa bertolaknya, method bayar online dah tutup. Saya dah cuba tanya the whole coach (this was so embarassing -_-') kalau ada duit pecah tapi semua kata takde. Ada seorang memang gigih seluk beg-beg dia, tapi ada duit kecil yang tak cukup sampai 2000kc. Sedih kat situ. Hohoooo. Konduktor pulak kata, kalau takde duit kecil, kena turun kat next stop. Sedih lagi. Haha

Dah turun train, alahai ditakdirkan pulak tu train station yang sangat kecil. Kaunter jual tiket pun dah tutup. Haha end up, saya naik train balik HK sebab dah takde train dari situ ke Prague. Ni pun mujur ada syiling sikit (tak sampai 100kc pun). Sampai-sampai je kat HK, terus beli tiket untuk next train. Train yang ni lah yang saya cakap kena transit tu, Pardubice nama bandarnya.
Masalah kat sini ialah connecting train tu bukan bawah Ceske Drahy (CD). CD ni ibarat public train dan connecting train pulak Leo Express (private company). Siap dah beli online dah tiket Leo Express ni. Unfortunately.....train delay. HAHAHA nangis la kau di situ. Geram dibuatnya konduktor CD ni mintak maaf macam selamba je. Kalau connecting train tu under CD, biasanya diorang tunggu. At least 8 orang affected dengan delayed train ni. Tu baru dalam koc saya, belum kira koc lain.

| Approaching midnight. |
Since ramai yang senasib, saya tanya dua Czech girls ni, apa plan diorang nak ke Prague. Seorang nama Ana, seorang lagi Tra. Diorang kata tak tahu lagi, sebabnya teksi sangat mahal. End up, saya ikut diorang kejar train yang ada kat situ yang menghala ke arah Prague tapi tak lalu Prague. Sampai lah kami ke final destination - Kolin. Dalam train, kami berborak-borak, turn out both of them are pharmacists, graduated from my university. Although we never met, this was the only reason I followed their plan. Hanya sebab sama universiti.
Guess what, kalau Pardubice jaraknya 109km dari Prague, Kolin ni dalam 70km. We thought the taxi will be cheaper. End up, the basic rate was 1 500kc. Convert lah. HAHA. Nangis dalam hati.
Ana try call boyfriend nak minta ambilkan, dijadikan cerita, boyfriend dia tengah minum. Duh, it was not even weekend. Minum ni maksudnya alkohol, means obviously he cannot drive. Long story short, flatmate Ana yang datang pickup. Saya memang dengan rasa bersalah minta tumpang. Dapat sampai city center pun dah okay sangat.
And, the flatmate was a....guy. Adam. He came with his girlfriend to pick us up.
Tawakal. Fuh, I don't want to be stranded at Kolin, tak pernah sampai pun pekan ni. Train station pun dah nak tutup masa tu. Sepanjang perjalanan tu, I kept updating my location to few friends. Haaa, tahan la hati kena leter sikit T___T

| Kolin train station. |
Kitorang sesat. Tak tahu nak kata kelakar ke scary ke. Adam salah masuk simpang kat highway dan the car was going away from route to Prague. Terus bukak GPS semua, and finally alhamdulillah, back on track. They sent me to I. P. Pavlova, kat sini ada direct bus to the airport. Rasa terhutang budi tapi Adam taknak duit apa-apa.
Thanks, anyway!
Moral of the story.
- I need to make sure I have small money / exact amount of money if I want to pay tickets on the train (in the future).
- Tebalkan muka untuk pinjam duit orang dan try bayar balik by topup or something easier.
- Jangan tidur sebelum perjalanan bila travel solo.
- Naik train awal! Be on time!
- Sebaik-baik rancangan kita, rancangan Allah lebih baik.
I learned my mistake.
