Penang: Nyonya at Pinang Peranakan Mansion
Pinang Peranakan Mansion is located in business neighbourhood of Georgetown. It is adorned with high quality houseware and jeweleries that you might find in Chinese wedding reception or high-end Chinese family. One another time, I met a Nyonya Just before gone back to my hostel. She is beautiful Chinese lady who talks in speedy Malay. One of her attention on me is my solo traveling. From all people who questioned my traveling lifestyle it’s only her and the other woman in Penang who praised this (crazy) idea. Well she definitely loves to chat and maybe travel when she’s young too.

Penang: Welcome to Strait of Malacca
I visited Penang recently through Singapore. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is located in historical of Strait of Mallacca. Honestly, I am looking for more cultural experience than nature sightseeing for sure if anyone asked. Sadly I didn’t make it birdwatching in Penang Hill due to unfortunate weather. This trip is sort of my first experience as solo traveler because many times I go traveling with friends. Based on my view over 3D2N, Penang is very friendly and accommodating for solo and women traveler like me.
Bogor: A Night With A Moon | Semalam dengan Bulan
Actually taken about a week ago when I was in insomnia mode. Played with my Fujifilm X10 for quite long time until I got this image of dark yellow sky and moon. It’s kinda beautiful and eerie in the same time.
Gambar ini diambil sekitar minggu lalu ketika saya mengalami insomnia. Memainkan Fujifilm X10 selama beberapa lama hingga akhirnya mendapatkan gambar langit dan bulan kuning gelap. Sangat indah dan aneh di saat yang sama.
Serang: A Visit to Rumah Dunia | Kunjungan ke Rumah Dunia
Is this your old red bicycle?
Apakah ini sepeda merah lama milikmu?
It was not a long journey to Rumah Dunia in Serang, Banten. It was only a short visit for “Rumah Adalah Di Mana Pun” book discussion last month. This book is written by Indri Juwono & her friends in Langkah Dewi. However, I will not talk about the travel book itself for now (*spoiler* I am also in the book as supporting character in Indri’s story :p). I am so impressed with the neighbourhood and Gol A Gong‘s mission to increase literacy in Banten. Who doesn’t know about Rumah Dunia, Gol A Gong, and Balada Si Roy? Even though honestly I never read it but I know him since I was in primary school. My first impression when seeing Rumah Dunia that it is so artsy. Many recycled and old stuff are combined and made into art stuff. There are Rumah Dunia Auditorium and outdoor hall for hundreds of people in the front yard . In the old version of Rumah Dunia, most building materials are made from bamboo.

Papua: Land of Betel Nut | Negeri Pinang
Pinang fruit or Areca Nut which mainly said as Betel Nut is often chewed as wrapped in betel leaves/fruit and poured it with chalk. There is unique relationship between Papua people and Pinang as far I can see. I thought only elders Dayak people in Kalimantan chewed them a lot but here in Papua from young to elders they munching them all day! It seems very addictive like cigarettes! You almost can find people selling pinang in every street corner like two ladies above who I met on the way to Jayapura. For $1 or Rp 10,000,- you can have 10 pinangs, 5 betel fruits, and chalk as you like :DContinue reading “Papua: Land of Betel Nut | Negeri Pinang”
