Rumah Gadang, Padang Panjang, West Sumatera

Rumah Gadang, Padang Panjang, originally uploaded by algenta101.

The most viewed photos in my Flickr's gallery, about 5xxx and still growing. Do not know why people like to stare at this photos but it is indeed a unique house to the people of Minangs.

The largest Minang community apart from the West Sumatera is in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. It is also known as the Land of Adat Perpatih, which means the locals uphold the old customs dearly.

I was also come to a shock to learned hat I am a descendant of the Minangs as I was just been told that the father of my father is a homeboy of Pulau Sebang or local dialect as Pulau Sobang, Negeri Sembilan. Made me a waghih (heir)!

Maybe, and I say maybe, if I go deeply, I could be in the line of the Undangs or the Yamtuan himslef. Dreaming.......

Memorabilia - Fridge Magnet

It is not complete to travel if you do not buy memorabilias depicting the uniqueness of the place of visit. You can buy anything as long as your wallet allow it, but for me, collecting fridge magnet is one of it. It is easy, nice to look and most importantly affordable to almost everyone.

I found a website that sell fridge magnet depicting travel sites all around the world. You can visit it here or simply clicking this address http://fridgemagnetgallery.blogspot.com/

Next time when you just having breakfast, lunch or dinner at your meal table, you can always stare you fridge wall and rekindling the good old memories when travelling around the world.

Happy Shopping and Travelling Guys!
