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, ...

90's generations

I am 90’s generation. I was born in 1991, so I am 90’s generation. I still remember how was my childhood with friends. Was very happy at that time. Just play around, play and play. Not thinking about what happen tomorrow, not thinking about obligations to do, about jobs, about money, about everything, just play around with friends. Hmmm ....always happy.

I still remember when I was child, I played something that always move our body, make us think strategies to play, always run, that always make us sweaty, means like we do some physical exercise every time we played. Then what we get? Health, fun, friends, happiness, unforgettable moments. We had lots of child’s songs. We have our own world that make us feel and just be a child at that time. With that kind of activities, it stimulate our growth when child. Child needs to move a lots, with that kind of play will make them grow up very well.

Compare with kids now, what they play? They plays some video game, play station, online games, internet, or something like that. when they plays, they never move even a bit. They just sit and hold that game device and only move their 10 fingers. Can be healthy to play like that?? no. I know play that games will make kids think a lot, and can arrange the strategies to finish and win that games. But, remember, kids need to move. Move and stimulate their growth. They need to move and be happy. That’s the point. Are they had child’s songs? Not as much 90’s generation songs hahaha. But yes it is. At least in Indonesia. No songs for kids now, poor them. Feels like kids are robots. Hmmm... I don’t know.

So, what do you think? Let your kids grow up well or not? Let your kids had very good childhood or let them enjoy their device? Up to you… It just hmmmm I don’t want kids have bad childhood, because it will affect them when they become adults.

Let’s make a good atmosphere for kids, for them, for them who will lead and take care this world.

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...
