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, ...

Happy New Year 2018!



 

Happy New Year 2018 everybody!

Kinda late huh? I just got back from seeing my husband, so like usual… I stopped all of my activities when I am with my husband. Either blogging or responding messages on my social media (but I don’t stop on Instagraming hehe). That is the way I respect and appreciate my time together with my husband. 

So… everybody has made their 2018’s resolutions?

I am here to make my own list for 2018. About what I want to do in 2018 :

Be healthier, smarter, sexier, happier. It’s like in one package lol
Read 2 books every month. I hope I can make it. I really hope in a year I can read at least 24 books. I put this reading challenge on goodreads. I hope it helps. (I am now reading 1984 by George Orwell, already 1/3 of the book).
Doing sport. I extremely lazy for doing sport so I hope I can make it and doing this.
Write more good stuff. 2 years ago I wanted to write as much as I can. About the quantity, now I want more about quality. I hope so
Be able to speak another language. So far… I learn Dutch but but but yea still so basic. So I hope I can make it this year, to be able to speak this language with my parents in law. This is also part of fixing my silly English.
Blog-walking more. I feel so bad that when I can’t visit other people’s blogs 😩 I promised will do it more now.
Reduce my addiction to internet (or social media). I am not social media junkie but I think I want to reduce the usage of it. I see no point of having so many applications for chatting only for some specific people, like Line only 2-3 people, BBM only for 4 people (I delete my BBM already, it was used for work). I think everybody on Whatsapp now. So this is my main messenger now. But I will not reduce my internet usage for blogging and watching series. I also considered to delete my Facebook. I need internet just to make sure he is safe and ok, I feel like I am less stress when I am not connected to social media.
Earn my own money again. I think it’s enough to be jobless for almost a year now. So it’s time to earn money again for myself and future.
Do something new and challenging. About this, I prefer not to write in detail haha!
Don't give a shit anymore! This is also I prefer not to write in detail 😌
Live together with my husband and build a family. I am not sure when I will be able to live together with him, so I just want to put this on 2018 wish-list. Even if this is not gonna happen in 2018, then let it be a wish-list for 2019 and another year in future. 

2018, Please be my year 💗

So I think that’s all. I will always add more if I want too 😄

Happy new year!

Jumat ceria

Hari ini memang bukan hari jumat, tapi cuman mau bilang aja sih kalo hari yang paling aku tunggu-tunggu itu hari jumat. Why?   Karena jumat itu selalu ceria, kalopun ada meeting besar pasti di hari jumat dan banyak cemilan, orang-orang pada berangkat sholat jumat, yang nasrani juga mengikuti misa di kantor, bisa pake baju bebas dan bebas berekspresi sepuas-puasnya, dan..... bisa video call sepuasnyaaaaaa kapanpun karena dia libur kerja 😍😍 gambarnya lucu 😁  taken from internet

Jangan minta oleh-oleh!

    Taken from internet Pernah nggak kalau kita mau bepergian, trus orang-orang pada bilang 'Jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya' ? Pasti pernah dong ya... Yang jelas saya nggak pernah ngerti kenapa orang sering meminta sesuatu ketika kita pergi somewhere. Dulu waktu kecil juga saya suka bilang begitu. Siapa yang pergi kemana pasti deh 'jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya om, tante pakdhe, budhe, mas, mbak'. Tapi lama kelamaan saya mikir 'saya cuman ngomong aja tanpa niat minta oleh-oleh', kecuali kalo memang kita menitipkan hal itu karena memang hanya ada ditempat yang akan dikunjungi orang tersebut, misal buku. Pernah nitip beliin buku di Korea karena emang adanya disana. Jadi esensinya oleh-oleh itu apa? Saya juga kurang tau soalnya udah nggak pernah lagi minta dibawain oleh-oleh. HJ pulang ke Belanda sana saya cuma minta beliin buku. Itupun nggak dibeliin gara-gara bukunya nggak bagus kata dia. Oleh-oleh pun ada yang sekedar apa adanya karena emang adanya begitu...

Meneropong Bulan di Mleiha

Foto diambil dan diedit di hp gw sendiri. Mleiha - 2020 Sepertinya gw memang ditakdirkan untuk mencintai science . Gw ingat sekali, buku yang bikin gw jatuh cinta kepada alam semesta dan ilmu-ilmu yang tersimpan di dalamnya adalah buku Ensiklopedia yang dibawa papa gw dari perpustakaan sekolahnya. Nggak dibalikin pula. Dosa nggak ya gw? 😬 Di buku itu, ada beberapa bagian. Berupa sejarah, astronomi, dan budaya. Gw terpana dengan kesemuanya. Ada banyak gambar-gambar benda-benda langit. Gw susah banget soal hafalan yang dipaksa, tapi gw bisa inget urutan planet-planet bahkan saat kelas 2 SD. 2 SD dulu kayaknya belom belajar planet-planet ya? Benda-benda antariksa itu nggak pernah gagal bikin gw melongo gila. Setelah melongo, hati gw rasanya penuh dengan kekaguman dan itu biasanya bertahan selama berminggu-minggu. Gw juga selalu bermimpi buat beli teleskop. Dari SD gw kumpulin segala macem artikel tentang astronomi, berlanjut hingga SMA dan gw deketin semua temen gw, kakak kelas gw yang i...
