Traveling to Busan

Indonesia doesn't have a high speed train yet, so I want to try a high speed train in South Korea. I was inspired by "Train to Busan", so here I go to Busan for a day trip from Seoul. It's a 2 hours trip, so I booked a business class seat for Busan, and I booked an economy class seat for Seoul. My train should be departed by 6:30 AM, and I almost miss the train.

Traveling to Seoul Tourist Spot

As I told my friend that I will go solo traveling to South Korea, few of them told me about unpleasant stories. I also watch the unpleasant experience shared in youtube channel. But, I want to keep my mind open, and just avoid the unnecessary interaction. Turns out, locals are lovely and helpful. Now, I'm going to tell you about tourist spot that I visited during my trip. So many tourists came by, so I think "why not?". Let's begin my story as a tourist in Daehan Minguk...

Traveling to Seoul

Travel to South Korea is one of my bucket list. I've been a Running Man fans, so I'm really curious. Actually I would like to go to Jeonju, Daegu, Jeju, and several other city, but money won't allow me yet. For this trip, I will mainly stay in Seoul and will go one day trip to Busan. Many people has been to South Korea, but I would like to share my story as well. Here is my solo traveling to South Korea diary...

Traveling to Bangkok

Now, let's stroll around Bangkok. Here in Bangkok, you have many transportation choice. But I prefer GrabRide or GetWin (now Gojek) to MRT or SkyTrain. My legs haven't recovered from the cramps I got in Ayutthaya :") Here we go.

Traveling to Ayutthaya

If you have read my article: Traveling to Phuket, you might curious how my journey went on after that. So, I fly from Phuket to Bangkok with Thai Lion, then use Shuttle from Bangkok to Ayutthaya. Language is the main barrier here, but with Grab application it's just a click away. You only need to set the destination, and capture a landmark near you so the driver can find you easily. Once I landed in Bangkok, I rode a GrabCar to the Bus Station. The Bus Station location is quite unique, AFAIK, it's located under a bridge (or highway, not quite sure).

Traveling to Phuket

Hi! Thank you for visiting my blog. It was a quite long time since my last article back then in 2018. This time, I would like to share my story about Solo Traveling. The very first time of my life, I will go to Thailand alone! During this trip, I was planning to visit Phuket, Ayutthaya, and Bangkok. Let the story begins.

Traveling to Sumba (#2 Journey)

Sumba adalah sebuah pulau yang terletak di Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur. Jujur, aku gak tau apa-apa lagi tentang Sumba selain keindahan alam-nya. Diantara aku dan Vina, mungkin Vina-lah yang lebih excited. Aku senang karena emang udah saatnya short getaway lagi setelah Bromo, dan tidak terlalu memusingkan destinasi selama aku belum pernah kesana.

Traveling to Sumba (#1 Preparation)

Sumba. Entah sejak kapan, pesona alam di Sumba menjadi populer dikalangan turis domestik. Artis-artis tanah air mulai bergiliran mengunjungi pulau ini. Dunia maya pun geger dengan hadirnya keindahan pulau Sumba ditengah-tengah Feeds. Banyak orang yang penasaran, semakin banyak orang yang melihat, dan semakin sering pula foto-foto itu muncul. Aku dan Vina ingin sekali sebenernya supaya Chan (nama geng sewaktu SMP) untuk mengulangi perjalanan bersama berlima. Dulu, waktu kami masih SMP, kami pernah bepergian ke Bandung. Sepuluh tahun kemudian, hanya aku dan Vina yang akhirnya bepergian kembali.

Traveling to Bromo

Mount Bromo is an active volcano and part of Tengger massif in East Java. The name, Bromo, derived from Javanese pronunciation of Brahma, the Hindu creator god. To reach this area, you could fly to Malang Airport or Surabaya Airport. I have been to Bromo several times, but this time I visit Bromo with my new friends for a short getaway on weekend. Let these pictures tell the complete stories...

Traveling to Belitung

Belitung (or in English, Billiton) is an island on the east coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It covers 4,800.6 km², and had a population of 271,868 in 2014. The island is known for its pepper, tin, and white sand. In case you're looking for a short-getaway that has query such as beach, quiet, and affordable you need to pay a visit here! It's not under-developed, only crowded at seasonal peak, yet has breathtaking coastline. It's enough if you only had four days off.

Traveling to Solo

Solo, or its fame name as The City of Batik. I have visited Solo several times in the past four years, and finally a very best friend of mine has completed her bachelor degree this December. I attended her graduation, which probably the last time I would visit Solo. I may visit this little and humble city again some other time for different occasion.

Untuk bepergian ke luar negri, tentunya kita memerlukan paspor sebagai pengenal diri. Mungkin ada beberapa dari kalian yang baru pertama kali ingin membuat paspor, bisa baca pengalamanku yang akan aku jelaskan dengan detil disini. Masih sama seperti artikel sebelumnya, artikel ini akan ditulis dalam Bahasa Indonesia karena ini tidak bermanfaat jika dibaca orang asing, haha. Kali ini aku ingin berbagi informasi mengenai Kantor Imigirasi Kelas 1 di Kota Tangerang. Beberapa waktu lalu, aku mengajukan permohonan pergantian paspor karena paspor yang lama telah habis masa berlakunya. Mulai awal Agustus 2017, Kantor Imigrasi memiliki sistem antri online. Beberapa dapat mengajukan antrian melalui situs atau aplikasi resmi, namun ada juga yang melalui Whatsapp seperti Kantor Imigrasi Kelas 1 di Kota Tangerang.

Semarang Travel Guide

I would like to share you what should you do and where should you go while traveling in Semarang! Semarang is a capital city of Central Java. I know when you're having lot of time to spend, you have no money. But when you have money, you don't have time. I figured it out that 3-day of short getaway is more than enough for you to take a break from your routines.

Bandung: Lawangwangi Creative Space

Lately creative space were built permanently in lone building. Many artist are allowed to show their masterpiece off of the visitor. Even right now there is a space which could contains art, stage performance, even meeting room. All it has to do just build a building which has rooms. The rooms are free to be decorated as rent of course.

Bandung: Dusun Bambu

Dusun Bambu is one of the family restaurant located in Lembang. I do not know when exactly this restaurant opened for public, because I think I never heard any information about this from media. I just saw from people who shares his/her photo on social media. It is located like deep in Lembang hill, much far away than Sapulidi. I feel like the direction that lead us to Dusun Bambu is a dead-end. And it's true, the path that we've been through surpass the main gate of Dusun Bambu (P1) and lead us to the parking lot (P2 & P3).

Bandung: Farmhouse Susu Lembang

Farmhouse Susu Lembang well-known for its hobbit house. You know The Hobbit right? The main character in prequel of The Lord of The Ring is a hobbit named Bilbo Baggins who lives in Shire.

When you're arrived at the gate entrance, there is several staff who would ask for passenger's amount. The ticket price is affordable (20,000 IDR/person and 10,000 IDR/car) because it's already included a cup of fresh milk with various flavour. Entering the area there is direction board, but I didn't take a look well so I decided to start with a left-turn.

Traveller Tips

First, if you're a new traveller consider yourself as a noob. You're mentally sane if you're thinking that way, which means you're open minded to gather much information before your first flight. Fact is, this tips is open to many traveller, but as a solo traveller you need to prepare everything by yourself carefully.

Semarang: Place to Eat

I spent my days in Semarang for four days, so at least I have to eat 6 times!
