“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm, and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” – Jawaharlal Nehru


I fall in love with the beauty and wonderful of my country, because of the islands hopping trip. A few months ago, I don't have that much time and money to travel some of the nearby islands. Even though, it's only a few hours away from home.

But, it's been my life dream to be able to travel around, because I used to have a dream becoming a tour guide, myself. Then life happens and the dream isn't happening, yet. I believe, someday it will come true, I just need to push myself to the fullest.

KARANGANTU PORT
This island is still part of the thousand islands, Indonesia has. Only to be able to get here, you will go from another area. Which is another port in West Java, Serang, Banten. The name of the port is KARANGANTU – history said, the name of the port had to do with a ghost story tale. Just like the one with Ginny in the bottle, kind of story. But, we do know, every place we go there will always be a story to tell.

To be able to reach this port from Jakarta, one can take a bus from KAMPUNG RAMBUTAN bus terminal, or from KALIDERES. They will have some tickets sale to the PAKUPATAN bus terminal. The ride will take around 2-3 hours, depends on the bus driver and how many stops to get another passenger on the way.

After you arrived at the last stop, you need to take another minibus to the port. It was a short distance ride, will take around 35-45 minutes to finally arrived at the port. Then, you just have to wait for the boat to come pick you up.


The boat ride from the port to the island will take another 2-3 hour if you need to take a good nap. This probably your best time to get one. Since the island is a bit far from the city, you will see there are not much of people actually going to the island. At least, last time I went.

MONUMENT
One of the views on the boat ride to the island, we are passing by this monument. Some kind of electricity power supply for the city surrounding.

SAIL AWAY 

ISLAND ENTRANCE
The island still under development, and it keeps getting help from the government. Even though it's a bit far off, but one can see the development around the island. Some of the house guests have been made, and clear water also available for us to clean ourselves.

Also, the electricity in the island only exists at night, while during the day there is no electricity. So, if you want to charge all the battery, will be during the night. 


THE GRASS FIELD

THE SMALL FOREST TREES
You can find a perfect island here, from the small forest, open field and of course snorkeling place.

SNORKELING GEARS

VITAMIN SEA
 Just amazing clear water to do the snorkeling around this island.
DEEP BLUE SEA

THE BRIDGE

WHITE SAND BEACH
This beach is at the other end of the island, they have 2 (two) entrance docking boats. As far as we concern about the island, garbage also the one that we are concern about. As you can see, that drifted garbage along the white sand beach. Not all the people in the island actually care about preserving this kind of awareness.

Some of the local tourists sometimes also don't really care about how they throw their garbage, or even clean after they use. This kind awareness needs to be taught from the beginning. Sometimes, it's really sad, when you have a beautiful view but you can't avoid the laying garbage around.

Hope you're not one of the local tourists who ignorance about their surrounding.

If we're destroying our trees and destroying our environment and hurting animals and hurting one another and all that stuff, there's got to be a very powerful energy to fight that. I think we need more love in the world. We need more kindness, more compassion, more joy, more laughter. I definitely want to contribute to that. - Ellen DeGeneres



Have FUN exploring!




" It's a lovely experience walking around the museum by yourself "- Brad Pitt

The National Museum of Indonesia, is an archaeological, historical, ethnological, and geographical museum located in Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, Central Jakarta, right on the west side of Merdeka Square.

This is one of the major street in Jakarta, close to the Monument National, our Gambir train station, also the Presidential Palace.

New street regulation wouldn't allow any motorcycle to pass this road any more. Yet, the car also have new regulation, for the last license plate with even and odd numbers, depends on the date in the calendar. You definitely need to follow through and aware if you're going to travel around this area and coming from out of town.

Because the fine will be very high, if you're actually break the street regulation in this area.
"Be aware of even and odd numbers cars regulation, for license plate numbers, depends on the date in the calendar. Monday-Friday, unless it’s a National Holiday, start 7-10 in the morning and 4-8 in the afternoon”

This is the big facade for the museum right when you're enter

NATIONAL MUSEUM
 After you pay for the entrance fee, and it's only for IDR 5K and foreigner 10K, you can already enter the whole facility. The new building will be on your right as you enter the main lobby. But, if you go straight forward, you can see these beautiful white pillars, can't you imagine this building stand from 1862?

                                                                     


As you walking inside, there are lots of stones, and also collection of things. Feel free to browse   around, and getting to know all the collections inside. 

THE GAMELAN
Once can also learn to play the 'gamelan' in the museum, they have some of the course you can actually attend to play this.
TRADITIONAL HOUSE
There are still a lot of things you can learn from going to a museum, some people actually find it very dull and boring to enter a museum. But, if you like learning more about your origin country, and how we actually become a civilization today. You might want to try coming to this place.

Just pretend it's another journey to the past. If you still need more information, you're more than welcome to visit their website here, and more for info on the opening time

As we reach the village, the cold environment welcoming us. Just like a friendly hug from an old friend. As I reach the place and see the scenery of the lake, suddenly I forgot how long my butt strapped to the seat of our minivan. It's really a long one, and thought will hardly end.

But, surely this just worth to be admired.
MAGICAL WATER

I don't know why, but it seems like we always have a clear blue sky, whenever the weather is cold. Even though the sun shines brightly, but surely cannot beat the cold wind and the breeze of fresh cold air, surrounding us.

Can't you see? This kind of color is hard to find in Jakarta sky.
LAND OF A DREAM
MY HEART SOAR FOR YOU
Since I was in high school, and love going hiking, I always want to have an independence day celebration at the top of the mountain. It's some kind of a #bucketlist for me. But, the opportunity hardly arrived, because those people usually already register one year in advance, to be able to celebrate it in those well-known mountains too.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY
Until August 17, 2015 finally I can fulfilled one of my wish to be up there at the peak of Mount Prau.
HELLO THERE
Picturesque view and the Teletubbies hills, makes me want to stay there for a while, if it's not freezing cold, up here. The crazy cold wind makes the tip of my fingers blue, seriously.

INDEPENDENCE DAY SUNRISE
Isn't gorgeous? The group of friends almost thought we won't see any perfect sunrise, that morning. Yet, around 8 AM that golden light starting to shimmer behind the cloud, and the beautiful sun appears. We're all giving the applaud of standing ovation and cheers! That's just the best feeling, one need to experienced once in a lifetime. Waiting for the sunrise from the top of the mountain is like gambling on poker, or waiting for a blind date. Because you'll never know if it decides not to show up.
GOOD MORNING

THANK YOU, EVERYONE
These are the crazy people that I just met on the trip, but some of us still keep in contact with each other, and make another trip - will continue to another story. But, I would like to thank TRIP HEMAT, for arranging the schedule for this trip. It was a memory worth to be told, again and again!

Have fun travelling!



aku patah hati, sudah ribuan kali rasanya.

entah kapan aku harus merasa seperti ini lagi, melayang dan kembali dihempaskan berantakan. hatiku, mungkin sudah tidak karuan bentuknya jika bisa diteropong dengan jelas.

Halo 2015,

Sudah hampir beberapa bulan tidak menyentuh blog. Namun rasanya waktu berlalu begitu cepat. Sejak bulan Oktober, banyak hal sudah terjadi. Banyak hal yang perlu diceritakan, namun rasanya sudah basi. Tapi, mungkin suatu saat akan saya ceritakan.

Tapi ada hal baru terjadi, akhirnya saya memulai kembali hobi lama merangkasi asesoris. Yang dulu dengan teman yang banyak bisa laku, sekarang di era baru menggunakan beberapa sosial media yang ada.

Maka dibukalah toko CHAINS OF HEART yang bisa dilihat via Facebook dan Instagram @chainsofheart.

Silakan mampir dan dilihat asesoris lucunya, mungkin berkenan untuk dijadikan hadiah untuk diri sendiri atau handai tolan. Ditunggu pesanannya yah!

Cheers!
