Buku Pertamaku: “Catatan Tersembunyi Pejuang Konservasi”

Tulisan ini sudah lama tertunda lama. Hitung-hitung sebagai hadiah peringatan blog di wordpress. Ternyata sudah 17 tahun sejak saya punya blog yang satu ini. Jadi saya ingin (kembali) memperkenalkan buku pertamaku karena ada beberapa teman yang bertanya dimanakah mereka dapat membeli bukunya karena sebenarnya buku ini sudah launching di Februari 2023.

Diary of Holyland (II)

Our follower during our ascending track in Mount Sinai

St. Catherine (Egypt) – 09 Jan 2023

We began our journey to the Mountain of the Impossible, Mount Sinai, around 4 am in the morning. The Hard Rock Cafe in Sharm El Sheikh seemed deserted, with everyone still sleeping and very few people on the streets. It was quite strange compared to the bustling afternoon when tourists and sellers filled the city. After an hour of driving, the scenery transformed into sand and red hills, and we were able to witness the sunrise along the road.

Diary of Holyland (I)

Cengkareng, Jakarta – 05 Jan 2023

Mum and I are having another adventure, and now we want to explore the Holyland! We start our journey with our travel group from Cengkareng Airport, Jakarta. Our flight with Emirates airlines took less than 17 hours, with 1-stop at Dubai airport. We only carry one big luggage and two small cabin luggages since I don’t expect Mum to carry a lot of stuff. We are confident that we carry most of important things. In the end, we still carry too much clothes for 2 weeks trips.

More time for personal development, a win-win solution in pandemic time

Felicia Lasmana (Bearhs ELP 2021), Senior Quality Officer and Project Manager at HCV Network. Currently based in Indonesia.

In March 2021, I am currently back in my hometown so I can take care of my mother in pandemic time. While I have been working remotely for more than three years, there is no big difference in my working habit. But I truly miss is the fact that no more travelling time both work and pleasure. Especially when there was no window opportunity to get a vaccine for people less than 60 years old. Back then and until these days, partial lockdown is applied everywhere within and outside the country.

Traveling Gears 2021 (WFH edition)

I haven’t been posting this topic for the last couple of years. Surely there were few changes on my Traveling Gears as I usually tried to get things handed to family or donated when I don’t feel happy to use it again. I have been fortunate to have an opportunity to work from home for two years, and these following products are used daily nowadays.

Why I’m back to Bandung (my hometown)

After staying in Bogor for years and lots of travels finally I’m back for good to Bandung – my hometown – due to COVID 19. Yes, the reason is quite common as other people nowadays. Although I’m not sure whether it’s similar for other grown adults Indonesian nowadays as some of us most likely staying with our parents. Anyway, last time I posted something similar to this is about living in Indonesia after a year studying in the UK.

Mungkin banyak di antara teman-teman yang sudah mendengar, membaca dan menonton berbagai topik sekitaran Digital Minimalism, Puasa Media Sosial, dan berhenti sosial media. Terkait dengan isu media sosial, Pangeran Harry juga baru-baru ini juga telah menulis bagaimana media sosial telah memecah belah kehidupan masyarakat modern dan perlunya peran perusahaan dalam membatasi konten berbahaya (lihat tautan ini). Berdasarkan pengalaman pribadi ternyata ada perbedaan secara psikologis dengan berpuasa dan berhenti media sosial secara total.
