Davidoff Training

Second day of my training trip to the third world country continues.

I start my day with my favorite coffee.

anytime, anywhere..

Memang seksa la tekak sepanjang minggu tue. Makanan halal memang tak ada. Tapi nasib ada bawak bekal megi, sambal ikan ikan bilis dan sambal hijau.

sambal ikan bilis import dari Malaysia

After breakfast, we start our training and it last for 4 hours.

tobacco plant

Its all bout back to basics. From the plant, seeding , fragmentation, to making cigars.Its all made by hand. That's why Davidoff cigars are very well known for their quality!

 In between time we had a break and most of us took a chance to get to know each other.

This time most of representative has been monopolize by Asian. Asian smokers has grown for years now, and Asian has become  one of big buyers in tobacco business.

Paris, USA,Hong Kong and Malaysia participants

Had a lunch by the pool side. They serve the local dish which i cant eat. So i stick with my "sambal hijau" and plain white rice. Nasib la omputeh ni reti makan nasik.

Habis semua mat saleh nak cuba makan sambal hijau nih. Lepas tu cakap pedas! I did warn them bout it.

this is sambal hijau! spicy and very malaysian!

Done with the lunch. Check out and move to another hotel. It took another 2 hours to reach there.

We did try to stroll around, but there's nothing much to see. And besides they don't really advice us to go anywhere by our self. 

So we end up going back to our room and rest before dinner.

Had our dinner at the pool side and it was nice view.

 cigars anyone?

After dinner, most of us hit back to the room, still jet leg.. And we have to wake up early for the next day.

On the third day of training, they took us to the plantation farm. I was so excited!

At the "barn" house, this is where all the tobacco leaf will be left for natural drying.

Later on we went to Davidoff Factory. Where all the raw material been kept, aged and rolled. Surprisingly most of the workers are women. This is because women are patience and has a sharp eyes.

This training program, include cigar testing an chance for us to create our very own cigar blend. It was interesting day for me and the rest of representative. 

That's a wrap for the third day training. It was very informative and interesting.

 I can't wait for the next day!

Till the next entry! 

Lots of love,

Buenos días!

Its been a while I didn't had a chance to update my blog.. Sorry guys. Well you must be wondering where I've been.. Well, I was away for work. As you know, I still work as Tobacco Retailer. The company has been kind to sent me away for a training. 
 I been working in this company for quite sometime, when they decided to send me away to Dominican Republic, I was excited and pleased at the same time! I bet most of you guys never heard this nation.. 

The Dominican Republic is a nation on the island of Hispaniola, part of the Greater Antilles archipelago in the Caribbean region.

Capital city of Santo Domingo and using Dominican peso.. Population 10.28 million and it was continent of North America. Official language are Spanish!

The journey took me almost 30 hours just to reach there.. Yup!! 30 long hours!!! Am not kidding ya.. That was my first ever experience for very long haul journey..

My flight was scheduled on 12th January,2014 via Malaysia Airlines to CDG,Paris . But the flight was delayed and I have to wait till 2am to catch the flight.
Just imagine everyone was tired, restless and sleepy!
By 7am, Paris time we safely arrived. The moment i step out from the cabin it was freezing cold!

I was expecting to catch a snow.. Tapi memang bukan rezeki ku. It was "hot winter" most of the French were saying.

Once i meet up with the rest of Davidoff Representative, it took us another 10 hours to reach Santo Domingo.
Memang penat sangat. Dah la sepanjang flight tue ada turbulence. Sangat menakutkan. Masa tue memang hanya doa dan tawakal jer lah yang mampu. 
So when the news of missing MH370,  I know how does it feel like on board. Tu baru turbulence, bayangkan perasaan semua penumpang dan anak kapal tu sekarang ini? Mesti sedih dan berbaur perasaan. Doa Rose moga mereka semua nya selamat dan akan kembali ke tanah air segera!
Ok back to the story.. Finally we reach there around 6pm,Santo Domingo time.

Seriously this airport were full with artwork. Even though it was a third world country, but the airport toilet was clean!
Lepas kami semua berkumpul dan dapat bagasi kami, kami dibawa ke hotel. Kami disambut dengan 3 piece band. It was interesting i must say. 

Oh did I mention along this long haul journey, i was wearing my Premium Beautiful corset? Honestly speaking, I was so relief i decide to wear my corset. It really help to support my back! Memang berbaloi sangat pakai Premium Beautiful corset masa dalam flight. Sebab rasa tulang belakang tak berapa lengguh. 
Once we done with our dinner, we hit to our room. Penat jangan cakap la kan!


cant sleep without my teddy!

 What's going to happen next day? Well stay tune for next entry!

Love,

#glaminseoul Day - 4

 Today is my last official day here in Seoul. It's still shocking how my Free trip to Seoul is already coming to an end.

Thinking of going back home to my comfort zone is quite exciting, yet somewhat scary.

 I don't know if i am ready to face reality back at home because of all the great things i've been experiencing here in Seoul.

 Seoul has been a trip. Everyone i've been meeting and everything i've been doing is something i wont never forget, especially on our very last day..

Me and my room mate were late for check out.. Thank God we had clear and pack everything night after "maggie" pajamas party...

Started the day off by grabbing simple breakfast at Iteawon area with the rest of GLAMprenuer. On our last day, it's all bout PINK color!


Next we move on to one of the most historical palace...Gyeongbokgoong Palace..

Cute tak kami?? PSY wanna be yo!!

Hanis and Raz were so cool to join our lil crazy idea.. PSY style... Who else inspired us to pose like this? 

Cute right?!

Look at the pictures... We were having fun singing an old rhymes,like enjit-enjit semut and rasa sayang... then suddenly that Chinese lady came in and keep asking us to keep on singing so she would record and snap a picture with us... 

Masa nie memang terasa diri kami seperti retis gitew!!! 

Hanis memang sporting sangat!!

Wonder where is Haikal during us snapping all these pictures! 

My cool mentor! Cdm Hanis Haizi and Cdm Razali Zain!

Look who we found on the way back from the palace?!! It's our local actress Ms. Wardina!!

Ok da habis berjalan and snap gamba sekitar palace tue.. Perot da mula berkeroncong.. For lunch, we finally had Korean dish.. It was yummy!!!

Done with lunch, we were sent off to Incheon airport.. Macam tak sangka sangat da abis dah my short lil holiday. I wont forget this sweet memories.. Tak rugi jadi GLAMprenuer dan duduk dibawah bimbingan Hanis Haizi..

Bye Seoul, Korea... Till we meet again!

On the way back, the air turbulence were still bad.. But we survived!!

We arrived in KLIA around 10pm.. A mix feeling i must say... I meet great people along the trip.. I make new friends and learn a lot from them..
