Kembara Hati Mawar Safiya

Siapa sangka, berawal dari sembang-sembang semasa Umrah Ramadhan Andalusia 2024, tentang Mangga Harum Manis, kali ini Aunty Norlidah offer kepada rakan-rakan jemaah untuk datang ke kebunnya. Ye lah, tawaran harga di kebun lagi murah dari harga beli di tepi jalan. Betul lah tu. Tambah pulak, boleh masuk kebun, sapa je yang tak mahu, kan! Akhirnya this year Kak Mawar luangkan masa untuk penuhi misi mengejar mangga paling eksklusif di Malaysia, iaitu Harum Manis yang betul-betul sedap, hanya di Perlis . Tersenyum sendirian apabila misi aka janji 2024 ini  telah berjaya dilaksanakan pada April 2026!  Asalnya nak pergi naik ETS sahaja, tapi memandangkan tiket untuk ke sana, cecah RM300 pergi balik, belum lagi kira duit grab untuk ke sana sini then kena mengangkut mangga tu pula naik train ETS .  Better kita drive je laah. Boleh la ajak yang lain join sama, leh sama-sama "tong" sorang sikit.  Sapa je yang tak nak ikut trip mangga harum manis ni. Tambah plak, RM20 kalau bel...

Hello, hello my wonderful friends!  Today, I want to share a secret from my heart. Why do I, Mawar Safiya (or Canon Rider!), love riding my big motorcycle? And why do I see more and more girls riding big bikes too? Maybe you have wondered. Maybe not!  But after reading this, I hope you will see... this world of two wheels is not just for boys! Oh no! It is for us too! For brave, free, therapy, happy go lucky girls like you and me! Ready? Let's go! VROOM VROOM! 1. It Feels Like Flying! (Freedom & Being Brave) When I sit on my big bike and start the engine... RUMBLE RUMBLE... oh, the sound! It makes my skin feel all tingly and happy! That sound is not just noise. It is the sound of freedom! It says, "Mawar, you can go anywhere you want! Anytime you want!"  Sometimes people say, "Girls should not do that." But I listen to my heart. I do what feels right for me. And that makes my life feel happy and full! It's also my therapy. 2. I Feel Super Strong! (Pow...

Hello my lovely travel buddies! Sometimes, we need to go on a very, very long trip. Far, far away!  Maybe it takes 10 whole hours! Or maybe even 24 hours. That's one whole day and night!  Usually, we think: "Faster is better! Let's take an airplane! Zoom!" A 10-hour plane ride sounds faster than a 24-hour train ride, right? But wait a minute... Is faster always comfier ? Hmm... Let's think about it! Imagine you (You, the traveler!) are going on a super long trip. What is it really like on a plane for 10 hours? And what is it like on a train for 24 hours? (Inspired by a story from Alice Twain on Quora!) The Squishy Airplane Ride (10 Hours) You know how airplane seats are, right? They are often a bit... small. Squishy! Your knees might say hello to the seat in front of you. Oops! If you want to go potty (to the toilet!), you have to wiggle past the person next to you.  "Excuse me, excuse me!" There is not much space to stretch your legs or walk around....

Hari Pertama  24 November 2017  Castella Cafe, Kg. Kerunai, Gerik Actually, trip ini hampir-hampir terbatal gara-gara salah faham. Tetapi, alhamdulillah, kita buanglah yang keruh, ambillah yang jernih. Kita belajar untuk bertolak ansur dan belajar menjadi tabah dengan keadaan sekeliling. Yang mana baik dijadikan teladan. Yang mana tak elok tu, kita jadikan tauladan. Semua perkara ada hikmahnya, kan. Yang penting kita bersabar. Allah amat sayang pada hambaNya yang sabar dan sentiasa menunaikan solat. (Al-Baqarah, 214) Orait..pada jam 10.30 pagi, kami pun bergerak menghala ke Pengkalan Hulu. Cuaca pada hari tu, mendung je. Jadinya, kami ambil keputusan untuk singgah di Castella Cafe, Gerik dulu. Di sini, memang terkenal dengan makan di dalam air. Sambil makan, sambil main air. Macam piknikla plak. Makanannya, dijual dengan harga pakej. Kami ambil pakej RM100. Dalam pakej RM100 tu, ada ikan sungai dan rebung masak gulai lemak kuning, ikan baka...
