Taking a Train from Moscow City to Yaroslavky

walking to the wagon We chose deliberately in the winter to travel from Moscow to Yaroslavsky. In my defense, we kinda had to use the holiday a little bit. If we're waiting for the good weather, it probably not gonna happen for 3 months and then nothing again. So this trip was taken on February 2026. So we've decided to take a few days off going from Moscow to half of the golden ring. The name ring, means literally ring. Refers to a few cities that used to be very important in the past. Starting from Moscow city (where which we're coming from, technically). I have to mention the cities here anyway; Sergiyev Posad, Pereslavl Zalessky, Rostov Veliky, Yaroslavl, Kostroma, Ivanovo, Vladimir, and Suzdal. there will be info about the train  We took the train trip from Moscow. I would say it's the "normal type" of train. So we sat next to each other. Two seaters next to each other. I think my husband took the non-economy one. He booked the train from the app, tutu. T...

Boxing!

bisa wrap sendiri setelah 2 bulan

Akhirnya gw nggak cuma mendambakan, "Ahh pengen boxing deh" tapi beneran bayar buat boxing.

Udah beberapa bulan ngintip instagram tempat boxing deket rumah gw, udah berbulan-bulan disuruh H buat berangkat, akhirnya gw mantapkan hati "Yaudah lah cobain dulu sekali" yang ternyata gratis trial ya. Karena baru pertama kali, ya gw mau coba yang basic aja. 

Setelah satu jam, penuh keringat, gw langsung aja "Mas, bayar dong bulanan". 

Gw bener-bener orang yang nggak bisa olahraga sendirian. Karena kalo sendirian, gw pasti boongin diri gw sendiri "Ah kan ga ada yang liat, udah ah nggak kuat" konyol. Tapi kalau ada minimal, pelatihnya, kita udah engap pasti mereka teriak-teriak "10 MORE SECONDS! AYO AYO BISA!!!" Kek malu lah kalau nggak lanjut, yekan? Plank dari cuma bisa 10 detik, jadibisa 20 detik, 30 detik, jadi 40 detik, gara-gara "AYO KAK BISAAAAAA!!!" Antara sebel, kesel, tapi ya seneng 😆

Jadi memang betul pribadi yang satu ini perlu orang lain untuk mau olahraga. Tempat boxing gw ini cuma 3 menit dari rumah. Kebetulan gw selalu ambil jam pagi. Kebetulan kelas pagi ini sering banyak ceweknya. Kalau pas sendirian emang sering capek sendiri, waktu istirahat lebih dikit juga. Jadi seneng banget kalo banyak temennya. 

Trus ada yang ngide bikin grup WA buat boxing ini jadi bisa absen siapa yang berangkat hari itu biar nggak sendirian 😂 Dari yang tadinya gw cuma seminggu 2 kali, sekarang jadi 3 kali. Kek jiwa-jiwa kompetitif gw nongol kalo ada saingannya gitu.

akhirnya hobi tendang-tendang gw bisa tersalurkan

Setelah satu bulan boxing biasa, gw akhirnya cobain Muay Thai. Ternyata enak dong, ada acara nendang-nendang pake kaki. Nah gw demen nih kalo nendang-nendang. Emang tiap abis kelas pertama pasti badan sakit semua, tapi setelahnya malah nagihin. 

Pertama boxing sih besoknya punggung perut bawah nggak ada rasanya lol, biru-biru juga. Boxing udah jalan 2 bulan, masih ngelatih badan bagian kiri biar bisa lebih fleksibel lagi sih. Kanan sih udah nurut apa kata otak, tapi yang kiri masih segan malu-malu koceng. Well, what's more important is enjoying the process of learning.

Emang rasanya setelah olahraga tuh lucu banget ya. 15 menit pertama pasti kesel mengutuk diri sendiri, tapi setelah 40 menit udah mulai endorpin kepompa. Memulainya tuh emang males banget, kayak berat bener gitu bangun pagi buat berangkat. Tapi kalau udah dijalanin malah enak dan kalo skip malah jadi grumpy. 

Gw boxing di Island Warrior Renon ya. Eh btw ini si Nana Mirdad juga boxing di sini. Tapi nggak pernah satu sesi sama gw sih 😂

Surviving -20 Celcius in Moscow

frozen lake in Moscow I'd say surviving because I am a tropical girl coming from 30-35 degree Celcius. So yes, this is about surviving such differences in temperature. I spent my whole life in a tropical country then I have to be in a -20 celcius, not an easy situation.  Obviously, I came prepared. I have been in a 0 celcius and learned that double triple layering is the right answer. Moscow has heater that runs nonstop since the beginning of (probably, I dont remember) November until early May. So you technically can not turn it off or on. Many days it gets too hot inside. Going to the mall in Moscow got me super sleepy and tired because it feels most of the time like in Sauna. So, double triple layering in Moscow is the right thing to do.  November temperature usually started to feel chilly, still not lower than 0. December will get colder can be minus. But January and February are the coldest season. This year dropped to -20 (that I can remember). The average temperature wa...

Happiness is ...

Few days ago I met new friends. They are friends of my friend. I helped them for their competition. It's good to know them since the way they think about something is unique and quite close to mine. Until one of them ask me : 'What is happiness for you?' I told them that for me happiness is when I stop compare myself with others and not being compared with anybody else (well, you can compare me with others but don't tell me if you do haha!). I used to compare myself with people. For following their success path might be ok, but for having the same life as theirs who seen successful and happy, I don't think so. So I stop to compare myself with others and it make me feel enough. I feel more relax, since I don't have to pretend or to be somebody else. I feel more 'me' because I only think about me and free to do what I want to do (or to think what I want to think). But one of them said 'For me happiness is when you can breathe, eat, sleep, and p...

Tiga bulan pertama hidup di luar Indonesia

Gw kira rasanya akan sama aja. Ada rasa kangen ya wajar karena jauh dari tempat yang selama ini kita sebut familiar. Tapi ternyata ada rasa rindu yang pukulannya berbeda.  Di kasus gw, gw cuma kenal satu orang Indonesia. Beliau bilang kalau mau temen jalan-jalan bisa lah berkabar biar jalan bareng. Tapi karena gw ada kerja dari senin-jumat, sedangkan beliau nggak, jadinya waktu kami seringkali nggak pas. Sedangkan di akhir pekan, gw habiskan bersama suami.  Bulan pertama masih terasa integrasi. Berusaha mengenal supermarket mana yang jual apa. Cari ini itu di mana. Menghafal jalur transportasi umum. Mengenal, membaca dan memahami nama daerah atau tempat dari huruf cyrilic-nya untuk sekedar "kalau nyasar, bisa kasih tau suami lagi ada di mana" karena seringkali online maps dihambat pemerintah.  Bulan kedua sudah mulai mengenal banyak hal. Sudah punya kartu atm untuk pembayaran. Visa panjang juga sudah di tangan. Mulai berhati-hati dengan banyak hal, mana yang boleh mana ya...
