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, ...

Staycation Gratis di Plataran Canggu

HAH! Loyalitas gw sebagai pengguna Grab terbayar juga 😂

Ntah apa kebaikan di masa lalu yang gw lakuin sampe bisa menang staycation gratis di Plataran Canggu. Awalnya gw nggak tau dan sebetulnya nggak peduli juga soal hadiah di balik kode promo. Terpenting buat gw yaaa tarif gw dipotong sekian ribu karena gw pengguna Grab setiap hari. 



Lalu, masuklah WA bilang gw menang staycation. Apaan nih? Karena gw takut scam, gw tanyain ke akun resmi Grab dan ternyata emang betul gw menang staycation. Girang dong gw. Wong jalan sehat agustusan aja nggak pernah menang doorprize kok 😂 

Minggu lalu (kapan hari di bulan Maret) gw redeem vouchernya. Canggu ini... bukan tempat gw banget. Dua kali ke negeri Canggu, sama sekali nggak tertarik. Kek negara sendiri aja dia ini. Canggu dari tempat gw lumayan jauh, jadi gw naik teman bus dulu dong. Ternyata bisa berhenti di halte terdekat, kira-kira 2 KM lah dari hotel ini. Lalu gw lanjut ojek dari situ ke hotelnya. 




gw baca cuma 10 lembar doang wkwk

Setibanya, ditanyain berapa lama di Bali. Ya gw bilang kalau gw tinggal di Denpasar kan. Lalu beliau bilang "Oh saya kira dari luar Bali mba. Kalo dari luar Bali kami minta tes rapid". Nggak tau gw kalau ada syarat begitu. 

Tentu saja gw sangat menikmati staycation gratis ini. Mana gw lagi pengen berendem di bath tub yaa... berasa jackpot 😌 Apa saja yang gw lakukan selama di sana? Tentu saja diem di kamar, baca buku depan kolam, berendam, relaksasi, yang enak-enak pokoknya. 

Sempet ditawarin floating breakfast, aduh gw nggak demen makan sambil masuk angin. Jadi nikmati aja deh ya foto-foto yang gw ambil di sekitaran kamar gw. 

Iya, gw bener-bener nikmatin hari gw sesuai definisi staycation, dalem kamar tok. 😌 Esoknya gw balik rasanya seger banget badan gw.

[Piknik] Prambanan lagi

Salah satu pesona Jawa Tengah adalah Candi Prambanan. Saya sudah 3 kali berkunjung ke situs warisan dunia ini. Candi yang terletak di perbatasan Jawa Tengah dan jogja ini selalu menimbulkan kesan mistis bagi saya. Terletak tak jauh dari jalan raya, sehingga mengunjunginya pun sangat mudah. Berbeda dengan Candi Borobudur yang letaknya sangat jauh dari jalan raya besar.  Ok, menurut saya ada 3 cara menuju candi ini. Menggunakan bus transjogja, taksi, dan kendaraan pribadi. Bagi yang menggunakan transjogja, saya pernah menggunakannya berangkat dari daerah kampus UNY, daerah Depok Sleman. 1 kali transit, 2 kali berganti bus. Dengan harga transjogja yang kala itu, 2014, seharga 3500 rupiah. Tapi sampai saat ini masih sama harganya, menurut info dari teman. Lokasi shelter bis berada agak jauh dari pintu masuk lokasi candi, mungkin kira-kira 500meter sampai 1kilometer. Kalau jalan, menghabiskan waktu sekitar 15-20menit. Bisa juga naik becak untuk opsi yang lain. Lagi-lagi, jangan lupa...

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...
