Absorb in the local culture and atmosphere.

Cannot agree more. Most importantly in every trip for me is to explore and look out for new things and ways to make things run in my favor. Walking is still the best way to move around to help myself understand my surrounding better,taking taxi for me is to hit the right place at the correct timing. Or i can simply just call it, using money to "buy time" when i needed to.

I like to experiment things in Batam,hehehe...how each booking joint works in their different ways,which one suits me best,hit the right massage places at the right timing,hehehe....eg.how to help the girls earn more and i pay less,how to bring down 1 million rupiah SYT girl to 500k, how to allow taxi drivers to earn my commission,keeps them happy (steal their intel) and yet i am paying less for my girls etc etc etc,hehehe...attaining a win-win situation so that i am happy,those with me are also happy,hehehe...

Go trip is to enjoy relax spend money.

Hard to explain to them. To each his own, I just enjoy doing things my own way.

I dont understand why people will say you are torturing yourself. You already enjoying yourself in your own way. The environment and the people and how you do thing with all situation that suits you,that is not in anyway a torment. At least not how i see it.

Im aware of the 31 Aug holiday.
Im planning to go 22 Aug in fact. Take one day leave on 24 Aug.

Hehehe...for me,Kaha gave me their Kaha brand of 2015 flipping calender at the beginning of this year,so i use that to plan my Batam trip (i dont like to join the Green Bean Soup Competition with others). Its easy for me to watch out for Malaysia public holiday becos i worked in a Malaysia linked company run by Chinese,hehehe...Sillypore no need for me to say much liao,hehehe...

As for my next trip to Batam,its a personal trip...so my trip date will only be shown in this thread when i already reach Batam. My leaves already approved,hehehe...like yourself,my is 3D2N too,but i told my boss in case of "emergency",i may not be back in office the next day to work but i will tell him i will be working from my Hotel room,hehehe...so i may end up with 4D3N again...lol.
