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, ...

Wanna Reborn As A Cat

This one is Molly

If there is any second, third, fourth life, I would want to be born as a fat sexy cat who lives in Istanbul, fully fed and always sleeping anytime anywhere. 

This post is dedicated to our lazy kitties. My Molly is pretty social, though he/she is super lazy. Yea, we don’t know what it is yet. I suspect it’s a he but did not really attractive to a female cat. My mum told me what it is but I always take it as he. 

I adopted him when he was 4 months old. And that was in 2018. My student offered me a cat, and our forcefully taken cats have abandoned me so I said yes. She was about to move out and she had too many cats. So I adopt one. Or should I say, he took me as his slave? That sounds better.

We never buy any cats. 

He was named Cimol, I call him Molly. But many of us just call him Mol and call my sister Cim. It feels like a bundle. He is now 2 years. So in human age, he is 24 years old. Pretty mature to start his career... as a professional sleeper?


Molly is a cat that would never poop in a dirty sandbox. If he got dirty, or I would say not dirty but almost half used, he would stay around me biting me and let me know that he wants to poop but it's dirty so the slave should clean up the mess first.




The kitties in my in law's even much older than Molly. It's Boris and Rosa. They both black, pretty fat, always sleeping, and have so weird sounds. They sound like heavy smokers 😂 I think they're more than 15 years already. Super old. The only way to tell which one is which is by the white area of their nose. Though it's pretty much a game for me, always need to refresh my mind which one is Rosa which one is Boris. 



Can you see the difference of white from their nose?

We see it every day about how easier life as a cat so my husband and I are both agree that we want to be born as a cat, live in Istanbul in our next life. Well, in this term is well fed and fat. 

But anyway, do you believe in reincarnation? I do 😋

Fire in the Building

Who would have thought that I  experienced fire in the building.  This is my first time living in an appartement. Of course I never chose appartement when living in Indonesia because it’s a real high risk when the earthquake happen. But here we are placed in an appartement. What got me relieved the first time that we are in the lowest floor so if something happen we will be quickly evacuated.  That’s what I thought.  Until it really happened.  We slept around midnight and abruptly woken up by the noise outside. I thought it was the drunk people just got back from night club or the restaurant next door was doing some deep cleaning. So loud that I had to wake up. My husband peeked outside and immediately said “fire brigade outside, you wait here!” I was just “am I dreaming or what?” I put on clothes, checked outside and saw a few of fire trucks. I checked the other side of the appartement and saw a few of police cars and ambulances.  “Oh no, something serious...

Pengalaman Bikin (Free) Schengen Visa di VFS Swiss

I know this is so normal but anyway I like to compare the experiences because people might have different cases and because I have nothing to lose so... here's my experience for applying Schengen Visa via Swiss (VFS). Kenapa nggak via Belanda? Karena rencana kita berkunjung lamanya ke Geneve - Swiss (ada urusan kerjaan suami gw) dan kami belum tau akan ke Belanda apa nggak saat itu (nggak jadi sih soalnya mepet banget).  Seperti yang sudah sering dibahas orang lain perihal syarat dan ketentuan apply Schengen visa, gw nggak akan nulis itu ya. Udah ada di website VFS, lengkap. Gw cuma tambahin dikit-dikit aja infonya yang mungkin sama seperti kasus yang baca kalo emang kebetulan sama sih 😂 "Ok jadi total pembayarannya 280 ribu rupiah ya" "HAH?? Cuma 200an mbak??? Visanya gratis???" "Suaminya masih WN Belanda kan mbak?" "Iya" "Oiya itu gratis, bisa pake visa tipe C. Jadi cuma bayar biaya admin aja" ...
