Escape to Paradise Island

Last week I went to Bali for holiday. Actually I took my annual leave with thanks to Air Asia, which only costed me Rp 180,000 round trip (very cheap huh?). Together with Yulia we spend four days three nights there.

The first impression of Bali is its main road all well built, high quality asphalt that make cars move smoothly. The quality of the road is far better than Jakarta's. Next is you can find polution is very low, with exception in Kuta. And since 93% of population is Hinduism, then you can hardly find a mosque there. Wherever we walked we saw Pura in every corner. Walking was also a pleasure in Bali, especially in Kuta, because pedestrian walk had been built and well designed although not to wide.

I went to Bandung on the weekend. Taking usual trip and destination: eating at Bumbu Desa and Rumah Mode Factory Outlet.

Bumbu desa is worth mentioning because of its great taste of Sundas food-style. It is located at Pasir Kaliki, 5 minutes walk from Mal PasKal. I can say that this is the best restaurant for those who love Sunda's meal, from fried chicken to gepuk to tempe bacem. And don't forget to apply its chilli since it is very hot. The Gepuk is very sweet and tender, just put some chillies and get ready to sweating.

Holiday in MotherCity (=Ibukota)

Yep, just passed through a week without traffic problem in Jakarta. Compared to last year, this year is a bit different, most of the stores were still open and food stores and restaurants were counting quick money since people need them so bad.

Ancol was full, puncak was jammed, Taman …

Escape from the Island - Day 8

The final day finally came. I had to leave this island and back to reality. As I could tell, you'll have different feeling when you were waiting for a airplane to take you home compared to waiting for  boat. The boat definitely had magical tricks to make you feel sad …

Tuesday is My Last Full Day

This afternoon, I woke up from a good nap with a sorrow feeling. I had to left this island next morning. Well this last week definitely is a break for me, escape from reality. Imagine to work while have some fun, this is the place! But too long staying here …

The Island - Day 6

Sunny day was really a good day here. I went to the beach area, watched un-boring ocean waves. Probably I come to this island in the right time, during full-moon period and in non-rainy season, so I got all the best from this island. Good sun and Perfect moon.

Sunday is the 5th Day

There's something unique here. You can't differenciate Sunday and Monday and the other days. Every day is a working day here, 7 days a week. So nothing was special on Sunday. But for me, ha.. took some extra fun on this day.

I went to the beach, sat on a …

Still in the Island - Day 3-4

Today is the fourth day I have been being here. This is the most important day because my actual work is being done today. Last night I still awoke until 2 AM, so now I feel a bit dizzy and vision blur :)
