An Overdue Post (Part 4 - Wageningen)

Hey it's me again returning with the series because absolutely I will finally forget if I don't get whats left in my memory into somewhere in this blog soon enough. Looking from the map below and the posts I've made, I think I am halfway of my trip.




The cities I went to on my very first trip to Europe back in 2015

Mita, my friend who has been the buddy for the first half of the trip, was living in Wageningen back then. So, obviously Wageningen should be in the list of my stops. I was excited to see place that wasn't a tourism object. Mita took me to bike around the WUR campus and we stopped by at the library which was cool, which made me wonder maybe I would go to the library regularly if I was studying there. I got to meet Kak Titis, one of the senior back in Bogor Agricultural University.

Then we went around the town, again by bike. I should definitely write this here, about the bike 🚲. So, I don't know about you, but the bikes I ever ridden before had hand brakes, but the one I borrowed from one of Mita's friend didn't have hand brake! I needed to pedal backwards to brake. Unfortunately I wasn't so used to the backwards pedal brake thing. I almost made myself hit by a car because I couldn't pull the brake, so the only thing I had in mind was to fall from the bike to avoid any crash. Thankfully nothing serious, successfully avoiding any unwanted accident. Falling from the bike wasn't hurting either.  Interesting though that this bike incident is what becoming the most memory I had from my visit to Wageningen 😆.
