#PerthPlusPlus was really an ad-hoc trip for me and my wife. We went through a busy period from May till July this year and I thought we could use a week of quick getaway to chill out a bit. Finding last minute airfare deals was quite tricky and though we had earlier planned for an ASEAN destination, we got side-tracked by a rather affordable deal from AirAsiaX to Perth. The only catch is that we need to travel during raya period, which was a first time experience for both of us.

So this is my #PerthPlusPlus story. A trip where we decided to go beyond Perth City (hence the “Plus Plus”) and discover the beautiful Indian Ocean Drive and scenic places around Lancelin and Cervantes.  It is also my first time flying on AirAsiaX in which with all our add-on “plus plus”, we ended up paying more than the fare on a premium airlines! 😛

Enjoy!
