Day 1 in Bintan with Anna Khayalan!

Today was the first day of our visit to Bintan Island. I honestly had never heard of this place before until HalalTrip invited me along to join this trip with my bestfriend, Kieyra as my plus one. 

 

We took a morning flight to Singapore from KLIA 2. We decided to sleep at the airport the night before to avoid missing our flight. Frankly, we didn't even get to sleep. I don't even want to talk about how bad my eye bags are haha. 

 

Once we reached the airport, we took a taxi to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal. We decided to have a quick breakfast at the Killiney Kopitiam in the terminal. 

 
 

On our way to board the ferry. It was my first time riding ferry so I was both nervous and excited at the same time. It was a 2 hours journey so we stole some time to sleep hehe.

 
 

The first place we visited after we landed in Bintan Island was a small prayer room near the terminal. It would be easy for Muslim travelers to stop & pray before heading to their destination.

 
 

Then, we went to get some local food at the local stalls. There were different type of dishes but the most interesting one was... Indo Mee hahaha. It was the best out of all but come to think about it again, maybe because we were just hungry. 

 
 
 
 

Today we stayed at Niwarna Gardens. 

 
 

Once we'd settled in, we went out to do some cool activities!

 
 

• Ninebot Tour. It was scary at first but once I got used to it, it started to become fun. 

 

• Site inspection. We went to check out the spa & other villas near Nirwarna Gardens. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

• Archery. My first time & my hand still hurts from it but it was really refreshing!

 
 

• Shooting. I never thought I would be talented in shooting, I hit every thing I shot! Truly satisfying.
