Rough Guide to Bali

Penjor "Hey I am coming to Bali, can you recommend me things to do?" I got that question a lot. I get it, I live in Bali so people would think that I master everything about Bali. Well... 50:50. I happened to travel around Bali since 2017. So it wasn't wrong to assume me knowing Bali. But I am also a lazy traveler so I don't always do many things in one place.  That is why we will call this a rough guide to Bali.  First thing first, define your style of traveling. Because we all know that Bali is an island. Not a city. So it is quite big, you know. You can not explore all of it in two weeks. Well you might be able to do so, but probably not immersing enough of it.  So... what is your style of traveling? Bali offers you some cultures, quiet normal life, party hotspots, quiet beaches, busy beaches, temples, and so on.  Mt Batur West part of Bali (Canggu, Seminyak, Kuta) If you enjoy partying, you might want to spend your time more in the west part of Bali like Canggu, ...

Your 74, papi

If only you were here now, I will be the first to say Happy Birthday to you. Unfortunately, God wants you to leave us forever. If you still with us, it could be your 74 right??

I still remember what we did together hehe.. Clearly remember. Always take to school and pick me up everyday to school. Always said that you will kick my friends if they make a mess with me. Sometimes you mad at me, I am ok with that because I was so young and bad hehe.. You always clean up your motor even it still clean and always in good condition. You love traditional music. You have lots cassete. I remember when you take me to school, and I kiss your hand, my teacher saw that and told me "Prisca, kalau kamu cium tangannya orang yg lebih tua, ciumnya harus bener bener dicium, jangan ditempel ke pipi saja", I did mistakes, and I kiss your hand sincerely from that time.

Always worry about me, worry when I came home late even just 5min. Always wants me to be a doctor, but finally I become a mathematicians, sorry papi hehe. Always told me that he didnt want me to have a special relationship with my neighbor haha.

Until he leave us, I never know what things that he wants to tell me. He said he wants to meet me, he ask me to see him, but I didnt come.

I am late, was late.. Never want him to leave me like that. I am sorry grandpa. If only I could turn back the time, if only... Just if only...

Semoga kau diberikan tempat terbaik di sisiNya, bersama orang2 yang kucintai lainnya. Aamiin..

I love you grandpa, my lovely Papi
Malang, August 14, 2014. Your 74.

Dapet Visa UAE (Dubai) Gampang Banget

Dubai creek Beberapa waktu yang lalu, kita pusing berat karena suami gw dapet libur kali ini cuman 10 hari. 10 hari dari yang biasanya 14 hari. Akhrinya diputuskan untuk tetap mengambil libur tapi nggak ke Indonesia.  Ternyata, beberapa hari kemudian, dia bilang, kalau liburnya malah jadi 7-8 hari aja. Mau ga mau saya yang harus terbang mendekatinya. Udah milih-milih negara mana yang harganya rasional, yang ga banyak makan waktu buat terbangnya dia dan tentunya ga ribet urus visa buat pemegang paspor hijau yang ga sesakti paspornya dia. Pilihan jatuh ke Dubai. Pemegang paspor hijau harus bikin visa, ya pusing lagi deh cara bikin visa Dubai nih gimana. Apa iya sesusah bikin visa schengen, visa US, visa lainnya. Dari persyaratan sih standar ya, termasuk  record  bank account selama 3 bulan. Gw belum pernah bikin visa Dubai sebelumnya ya, apalagi H yang paspornya super sakti kemana-mana (hampir) ga perlu visa, dia ga pernah ada pengalaman bikin visa kecuali  Visa Sosial...

Setelah Beberapa Minggu Tinggal di Moskow

red square Nggak ada yang bikin gw 100% kaget dengan perbedaan, cuma rada syiksyaksyok aja dikit.  Beberapa bulan lalu gw ke sini buat jalan-jalan. Ada kenalan suami bilang, "Gila ya, orang Moskow tuh wangi-wangi banget. Penasaran banget pake parfum apa." Waktu itu beneran nggak ngeh karena lebih banyak bau rokok daripada parfum sih menurut gw. Orang Moskow kalo ngerokok 11-12 kayak orang Indonesia di warkop.  Tapi otak udah terpapar ide tersebut, jadi waktu gw balik lagi ke sini, eh beneran dong mereka di jalan tuh wangi banget. Wanginya nggak nusuk, malah blend-in banget sama sekitar jadi nggak yang tiba-tiba puyeng makbrengg gitu baunya. Enak banget. Iya bener juga, gw jadi penasaran mereka pake parfum apa. Gw pengen beli.  Orang bilang kalau orang Rusia tuh jarang senyum, kaku, yang mana gw rasain pas awal dateng ke sini. Tapi setelah tinggal di sini, nggak juga kok. Mereka senyum kalau kita ngobrol sama mereka. Emang sih beberapa tetep ada yang pahit tapi nggak semua...
