Destination: Java, Indonesia
Mission: Meet old friends and new suppliers,
discover new finds, workshop and design summer 2011/12 range.
This is a good time to point out even the most experienced travels
do make accommodation mistakes - my boss and I combined have
travelled a lot of countries, and we take much pride in always
finding good accommodation, close to attractions and transport,
unfortunately our compass on our arrival to Java was a little out!
Now before I hear you say "travel snobs" I should point out that I
have happily stayed in backpackers in Greece, on roof tops in
Morocco and in hostels in China, but there are, when travelling for
work, certain standards that we stick to - I won't go into that
story about the Philippines saying the "red light district" just
didn't do that hotels location justice!! So after a quick chat we
decided to meet up with the other Vasties at a hotel, I bit further
away - but with a comfy clean bed, and really let's face it when
travelling that's all you want, after a long day is to rest.
