Feel free to browse through my portfolio, which contains selection of works that I did under Weekend break: Brastagi Highland
It was a great weekend getaway. The initial plan is to have a one day trip to Brastagi Highland and places around it. From 7 people, we settled down to 4 people. Cause the car rental with driver was too expensive for some of them.
But something happened few hours before the departure. One of the friends’ grandma passed away so she couldn’t join us. We have booked the car rental and couldn’t cancel it. So, there we went, just the three of us. This is my very first time going there in such a small group of friends. I must be outta my mind already.
We sticked to the initial plan and took off from Medan at 6.45am. It took approximately 2 hours journey. We stopped at the corn stall to grab a few bites of the corn and enjoyed the fresh air. The weather wasn’t so friendly yesterday. It kept on rain and stop for the whole day.
After that, we continued the journey to Grand Mutiara Hotel. Jan wanted to have the Pisang goreng madu – fried banana with honey. We thought that they didn’t have it for breakfast, but nope. So there we went, having our most expensive fried banana ever. 1 plate for IDR.15.000, excluded 10% tax. I never know that Grand Mutiara Hotel serves such a crispy banana. The overcharged price was worthy.
Three girls, beautiful scenery, plenty of free time, and 4 digicams. What a perfect day to take pictures! After the breakfast, chat, and pictures, we went to Mikie Holiday, Tongging, and SiPiso Piso.
Meet Canon and Lumix.
We took pictures everywhere we went.
Started with one person picture
Continued with 2 persons
The three of us
at the swimming pool
at the playground
Notice there is a few pictures with the 3 of us? Wondering who was so kind to help us to take those pictures? Alright, I’ll share the secret. It is courtesy of self timer (10 seconds) and the poles + chairs~! 
That is how we set the digicam for the 3 poles picture. I’m so proud of my friends. They are the creative accountants ever.
Total usage for the trip is IDR.242.000 per person, consists of transportation, breakfast, lunch, and miscellaneous fee (parking fee and entrance fee). Consider expensive for a day trip. But, once in a while is fine. 
Seems like a nice place. Reminds me of Cameron Highlands. But kinda waste you didn’t spend a night there.
Khengsiong,
We planned it as a quick weekend break cause my friends are working 9-5 1/2. I haven’t been to Cameron though. Read and see the pics online only.
