I never heard of Strasbourg before (I know, duh). My husband mentioned it once and when I google it I found it pretty. But when I google about best Christmas cities in Europe to spend in, Strasbourg and Colmar are tops of this list. So I have to experience these Alsace cities.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgpFRMwGvBaVJEe0kwkw2E5ms84UlKH0GOe0brAkyTlD6RK0KGZqTvTCS9h25u9XxIWgv2IA2g2Q3L59nIUAUMVNDORmjq13PVLKvJDRsjPtJc3iewFvYYKmVbBm3zK2Xpz0IIf6LRi_0RFiiCx3hcWnY-eZsWIT15ntX4-AT5jxDDcXnUIQbDY7CG7=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgpFRMwGvBaVJEe0kwkw2E5ms84UlKH0GOe0brAkyTlD6RK0KGZqTvTCS9h25u9XxIWgv2IA2g2Q3L59nIUAUMVNDORmjq13PVLKvJDRsjPtJc3iewFvYYKmVbBm3zK2Xpz0IIf6LRi_0RFiiCx3hcWnY-eZsWIT15ntX4-AT5jxDDcXnUIQbDY7CG7=w426-h640" width="426" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">So Alsace is a historical region in northeastern France. It's located in the border of French Germany, so these regions are a collapse between 2 cultures. The people here speak French, but minority of them (especially the elderly) understand German as well. It's so sweet how some people tried to communicate with German to us because they've heard us speak German.</span></span></div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Alsace is actually more than Strasbourg and Colmar. It offers many pretty little cities around them, which unfortunately not so easy to reach with public transport (by not easy I mean they do not have direct connection). I've read some blog and it's recommended to visit them by driving car. We do not have an access to a car, so that's why we only visited Strasbourg and Colmar.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><p><span style="font-family: georgia;">First thing first, Colmar.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Once you stepped in, you know you've entered a fairy tale. It's like the city in Beauty and the Beast where Belle live. The building are pretty, they represent French and German architecture with its sandstone and timber framing. It's also said that Colmar is the inspiration for Studio Ghibli's Howl's Moving Castle.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;">The city center in Colmar is the most popular spot among tourist. Not to mention the beauty of little Venice. Don't forget to visit a little cafe called Au Croissant Dore. It's vintage and homey at the same time.</span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjlDsp5XTVLut7F3mOBnHtRKdqGk-UIgLYRvdjI_hxbxL5QAxz3Ov__7rsWJ4GcB8ECoqWZaRqACHINCQxeIlASLxu7qGNVsgWl0auYgjh_Ab-FWMSD1-lXQEfLvRQi-Ph6E3ijvP4E-j4w2Dm9-H3T4tvMYE4uNsXUOeDXdJnOqMwHB7iZHQS4wQgH=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjlDsp5XTVLut7F3mOBnHtRKdqGk-UIgLYRvdjI_hxbxL5QAxz3Ov__7rsWJ4GcB8ECoqWZaRqACHINCQxeIlASLxu7qGNVsgWl0auYgjh_Ab-FWMSD1-lXQEfLvRQi-Ph6E3ijvP4E-j4w2Dm9-H3T4tvMYE4uNsXUOeDXdJnOqMwHB7iZHQS4wQgH=w426-h640" width="426" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Charming little cafe</span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiKo_Dj_iwME5mArScB8kSDQm8yeXDzxQ9WpDUS-0zj1bhQHU-NrkA5DswmneUgJu6-HPIt9TIY-jzBcwtewbayqBIzoEmL4Hi46rvmlHe3lmBeCzWP8IcTwnQMXBqZo33y9KzY-lMCVoFxgmxNIvyEUsFWzOxuGAucH3puc4OeXZzoMAwY8Lvz6lS3=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiKo_Dj_iwME5mArScB8kSDQm8yeXDzxQ9WpDUS-0zj1bhQHU-NrkA5DswmneUgJu6-HPIt9TIY-jzBcwtewbayqBIzoEmL4Hi46rvmlHe3lmBeCzWP8IcTwnQMXBqZo33y9KzY-lMCVoFxgmxNIvyEUsFWzOxuGAucH3puc4OeXZzoMAwY8Lvz6lS3=w426-h640" width="426" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">The little Venice</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">And during Christmas, they really deliver the greatest Christmas vibe.

You can walk by stairs or easily ride Gondola to the Castle. As per today the Gondola ticket cost 9 Euro per person (including round trip with Gondola and entry ticket to the castle).

The room is renovated but unfortunately it was 30 degree Celcius outside and our room was quite hot. So we opened the window during the night and ended up could not really rest well because of the noise from the busy street. So i recommend to stay here in Autumn / Winter, when you won't need to open any windows at night.</p><p><br /></p><p>We hope you enjoy the read!

And let me tell you: it worth the trip. Living in Germany, having this advantage to make a short trip to these beautiful small cities and countryside, when the sky is bluer and the grass is greener. </p><p>This time we visited Cochem and some cities around. We stayed at Haus Daniela, a vacation home direct at Mosel River. It consist of 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom,1 complete kitchen and big living/ dining area. Bonus point is, our room is facing the magnificent Reichsburg Castle.</p><p><br /></p><p>1. The city of Cochem</p><p>Cochem itself is a pretty little city. The city center is filled with preserved old buildings. Bakeries, local shops, cafes, restaurants, you name it. It's not a huge area, strolling along the city and a quick hike to the Castle takes one day in Cochem. You can visit the castle too, but unfortunately during the Pandemic it was closed</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT0hTknyiFODV89kJSsy8hZrN5sOcMVUY_rpM6Z5YzlfgrduUwYQ8F5X1rrnYo9Dn8lQfYth1Vl9_ZzbVNDDtr5TO0QcQP1-UdlYwomJkjTRbjcAe6flPZHRKhPjLEeR5Vnxj0di1K7Gw/s2048/IMG_9172.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1463" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT0hTknyiFODV89kJSsy8hZrN5sOcMVUY_rpM6Z5YzlfgrduUwYQ8F5X1rrnYo9Dn8lQfYth1Vl9_ZzbVNDDtr5TO0QcQP1-UdlYwomJkjTRbjcAe6flPZHRKhPjLEeR5Vnxj0di1K7Gw/s320/IMG_9172.JPG" /></a></p><p>2. Along the Mosel River</p><p>Usually our trip does not contain physical activities. But thanks to our friends, who suggest to rent a bike and strolling along the river, we decided to take part of this cycling trip. And we did not regret at all! It was the best decision we had during this trip. The cycling path is quite wide and goes side to side along the river.

We (my husband and I) had so many plans mainly for our advanced education for our medical degree, and for sure it's in Indonesia. We planned that on 2020 we are going to apply in one of the state university in Indonesia. Then the pandemic strikes. We waited for several months but there's no application available in that university. Funny thing is, once I said that if there's no application during early of 2020, we have to consider to move to Germany. There are also our dear friends, who live in Germany for 2 years, and was supporting to move there also.</p><p>And it happens.</p><p>Studying in Germany has been my husband's deepest dream. Before he was busy with his life as a medical student, he learned German in Jakarta for quite a some time. After that, he was drown with all those night shifts and he forgot about it. On the other side, I have always been dreaming of living overseas. I was so ready to bury that dream down, because you know as a doctor, it's kind of impossible of moving around overseas because you have to take long process to acknowledge the medical degree. And that is exactly what we are doing right now.</p><p>Getting into this decision was also not easy. I was 28 years old, who's gonna learn new languages to live with, and using this language at work. At first I was afraid. At 28 years, some of my friends got into residency already, pursuing their advanced medical degree. While i have to restart my life in another country and learn a new language like a 3 years old.</p><p>But I am excited. Let's see the point of view like this: it's a great opportunity to start over. </p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJhBkkZCBPs5IVLa8Vpi7jUsDKXsOht4iRWJDuEe5TV4YUJinZYURcLOnx2fxIE2yrCgZj7pndksNRiYxRGLLWuqrv1mMOKmoV9muR4o6XvV541HUM3_BY86eRkCtG8cM4eVaF6K38OBE/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJhBkkZCBPs5IVLa8Vpi7jUsDKXsOht4iRWJDuEe5TV4YUJinZYURcLOnx2fxIE2yrCgZj7pndksNRiYxRGLLWuqrv1mMOKmoV9muR4o6XvV541HUM3_BY86eRkCtG8cM4eVaF6K38OBE/" width="180" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>Sometimes it's funny right. I remember that I was whining around and asking to God, why is it so hard for me to apply for our advanced medical degree?

Maybe it's His awesome work, that would push me to chase my dreams while on the same time giving me an opportunity to live here overseas.</p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVnEzws8KSdza281V_dTyds0Ur6UVsKiqguiBex8VkPX0m43keBZW70TIK9cKWWmGoODjSOVm4CD87mSNM0yiQPi-EcWPT3zwGDF-S7zE48uthdBC3w6Z73cln9-v23zgWcCPIo39XaTU/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVnEzws8KSdza281V_dTyds0Ur6UVsKiqguiBex8VkPX0m43keBZW70TIK9cKWWmGoODjSOVm4CD87mSNM0yiQPi-EcWPT3zwGDF-S7zE48uthdBC3w6Z73cln9-v23zgWcCPIo39XaTU/" width="180" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>It won't be easy.

A wedding is personal thing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I remember the day I got married. It was September 9th, a humid Sunday morning. I've been jittery all night (well, 3 nights actually) about the day. I woke up at 3 after my not-so-good-sleep, got ready, and said a little prayer that everything was gonna be alright. Turned out is was. I was relieved. I knew I thought about other people a lot, while I was so nervous inside. And yes, it was one of the happiest day in my life.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Back to few months before the wedding, I am gonna share the preparation for this. It was 10 months before the wedding, that Nico and I set the date (well 2 dates, tbh). I researched that the venue was the first thing we had to deal with, after the date was fixed. Looking for our venue was kinda easy peasy, because we did want a garden ceremony for the blessing, and we know that outdoor venue in Jakarta was not so many in quantity. Ayana Jakarta (@ayanajakarta) is one option we had in mind. We fell in love with the venue at the first visit. The ballroom was decorated with beautiful lamp and in neutral color. The garden beside the ballroom was effortlessly pretty. We wanted in straight away, and thank God Ayana Jakarta was available on one of my date. Ci Christien, who helped us with our wedding preparation, was very helpful, too!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After dealing with the wedding venue, we had to look for another main vendors. Some said it was the make up artist that you should book right away. But I have my own priority. Photography and videography was what I had in mind, and I've been admiring Atipattra's magic work (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/atipattra.co/?hl=en">@atipattra.co</a>) after quite some time. I love the color, the tone, the people behind the work (you're gonna love Alvin and Carleen too!) , and of course the results of it. They made it so personal. Atipattra was the second vendor I contacted, and glad I could have them on the date. I also did my preceding photo and video with them, and it was lovely! And yes, all photos here were taken by Atipattra. Aren't they amazing?</div>

I did some researched in picking my make up artist, and I was glad I chose Archangela Chelsea (<a href="http://archangela chelsea makeup tutorial" target="_blank">@archangelachelsea</a>) for my wedding. Before I met her in person I was quite nervous for the makeup, mostly because I know my eyes were not the easiest to deal with. I can assure you, Chelsea is the best. I met her on the makeup test day, and she learned my face like magic. I was also indecisive about what to do with my hair, but she tried some styles that she thought might suit me well. On my wedding day, she made me felt like the prettiest girl indeed. The makeup was flawless, the hair was so lovely. Thank you Chelsea and ka Ocha!</div>

My choices of vendor after that would be the wedding organizer, the decoration, and the wedding dress. A friend of mine suggested Excellent wedding organiser (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/excellent.wo/?hl=en">@excellent.wo</a>) and we agreed to use their service after meeting ci Rita. She was very detail in preparation, knowing every process well, and helped us to check some deals we had with another vendor. The team also helped a lot on the wedding day, they kept me calm, they were good on timing, and run every details well. Our parents liked the way they worked too!<br />

For the decoration, we had Classy decoration (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/classydecor_id/?hl=en">@classydecor_id</a>) in mind. Amor was great with details, she knew my preferred style after our first meeting. I could say the decoration was beyond my expectation. Everything is pretty and very much like what I had in mind. Almost every part were my favourites, the garden decoration, the photo corner, the ballroom decor. It was very beautiful.<br />

And last but not least, I've been eyeing ko Bramanta (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/bramantawijaya/?hl=en">@bramantawijaya</a>) for quite some time, and very glad I got through the wedding preparation with him. He was very supportive, a fairy god mother who worked the magic for the dress. I told him what I liked, and he combined my style with his beautiful work. I love love love the dress. I could not ask for a better designer for my wedding dress.<br />

Those are the choices of main vendor we use for our wedding. Each of them delivered a very delicate work and we are satisfied with the results. On top of that, we are really happy everything went well on our wedding day. It was one of the happiest day of our life. The weather was nice (thank God!), everyone was happy, food was great. It's good to see our families and friends' happy faces. </div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">A pre-wedding is one special moment that I could not wait to prepare at that time. I remembered seeing those people having their pre-wedding photos overseas, wondering if I will do the same when my time comes. Turned out I was lucky enough to do my pre-wedding photoshoot at my favourite country, Japan.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Never crossed my mind to do an overseas photoshoot. I did thinking about Bali, because Bali is pretty indeed, has many awesome spots, and we could manage the budget like we want. But when Atipattra had their open trip for to Japan, how could we say no to this?</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">We use Atipattra (@Atipattra.co) for our wedding and pre-wedding photos and videos, because I really like the moody tone and their creativity. I understand that some people have different preferences when it comes to photography, but I have some suggestions if you have similar preferences like me. They are Kimi and Smith Pictures (@kimiandsmithpictures) , Derai (@derai.studio), Morden (@morden.co), and Masa Photography (@masakemasa). (yes you can easily find them on instagram)</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">First thing on my mind, the outfit. But apparently we have to <b>choose the photo spots</b> first before matched it with the outfits and theme. We undoubtedly picked Kawaguchiko as our first spot. We did go there in 2017 but will won't mind to go there once more. We did not have any difficulties to pick spots for our shoots. Japan is surely one beautiful country, where the alleys, ramen shops, and the people made me fall in love and always will. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Here are some spots on our mind, but we did not have time to visit it all:</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Secondly, after we pick the spots, we <b>choose the outfit</b>. The photographer team usually offered the stying service too. You can discuss the outfit you want, and you can ask some suggestions from the stylist too! Few weeks before we left, the stylist sent me the mood board which helped me to choose the accessories and properties as well. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Choosing the outfit is not easy, too! I have to say setting the budget is one important thing to do before choosing them. I got 2 dresses from my wedding dress designer, Bramanta Wijaya so I just needed to look for few dresses left. The renting service is not cheap as well (for the quality I wanted). So here are my best finding for pre-wedding outfits:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
My memory about Ubud is kinda blurry. I remember I was in a car with a local driver few years ago, telling me that Ubud was a place where the culture was still thick. The ambiance was not so crowded and the surrounding was not about the modern coffee like we knew in Seminyak or Kuta area. I happened to visit ubud on August 2018 and found that I knew nothing about this area. The beautiful cafes are everywhere, beautifully blending in Bali local culture. The shops are here and there, not to mention the happening area of Ubud Traditional Market. Wow I am really behind all of this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" id="id_8793_b5c7_38b2_9d13" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcjDttKkll-fCMFUx9ACy0e-FQMxRuhuPBw5F0ulUIvpOZNY4HUxj5lCNC0Yq9AevbwMHZAXqe4DcXSwRWImYCmGsXEmx0_atRW5Le1QP9tY3qSPsqghypsoeQnyhX-_fyWxCXubivzdM/s5000/%255BUNSET%255D" style="height: auto; text-align: center; width: 353px;" title="" tooltip="" /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
One of the places I really wanted to visit was Tegalalang Rice Terrace. I saw the photos through social media and interested to set my feet there. I asked my friend whom happened to visit Tegalalang and said that the best time to visit was around 7-9 am, before the sun was too harshly shine. It was beautiful there, he said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="" id="id_8700_fb89_e395_c166" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcBmyRLwO_2WniN0k-CKLknUJnmQmnlr-Y793a2VbuOsBYdG1A3cgyjv-1KuVvZe9l5jxNLpbwcrPksjpJgxC3em0Metdg8eB6ohUO3iZGDhQf0dPp083WDq4slpK_HSApxd6EjdSEWBw/s5000/%255BUNSET%255D" style="height: auto; width: 353px;" title="" tooltip="" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I set my alarm in the morning, managed to come early to visit Ubud. I came around 9-10 am, because it was raining that morning. Luckily the sun was still shyly appear, and we got a nice weather after that (but it was kinda slippery!). We tried to climb the terrace for about 40 minutes, and got tired halfway through there. But we got a nice view from that spot.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The entrance was about IDR 20k, and you have to pay for local donation once you arrive at the photo spot. Some people said they have to pay donation for few times, but I only got asked once, so I guess it was okay.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also got myself into a high swing, overlooking into a lovely rice paddies. Bargaining was important here! We got IDR 200k for 3 people to try the swing for few minutes. The safety belt was there and the people was kinda helpful. It was scary at first, but after few swings I started to enjoy myself with the breeze.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Things you have to remember before going to Tegalalang Rice Terrace, Ubud:</div>
<ul>
<li><b>check the weather forecast</b></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>make sure to have some breakfast before you start to hike, I was starving in the middle of the hike!</b></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>it's best to visit before 11 am.</b></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another place I visited in Ubud was Ubud Traditional Market. I was surprised to see that the road heading to the market was full of cute shops. Too bad I could not pay any visit because I could not find anywhere to park. I really recommend you guys to hire a local driver while you're going to visit the market because the jam was quite crazy. You can go shopping while the driver look for the parking area.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tha market sells some traditional stuffs like Balinese ratan bag, wooden utensils, loose dresses, and traditional scrubs. The stuffs they sell is kinda the same, so make sure to get the best price. The art of bargaining could be an advantage here, but be ready because the seller was not so friendly.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Overall I found my trip to Ubud was satisfyling. I got the part where I could enjoy the beauty of Ubud nature and the traditional part at the market. My friend also recomment to spend a night in Ubud to chase the sunrise at Tjampuhan Ridge Walk, but I already had a hotel reservation at Seminyak.<br />

How's your day in Ubud? I'd like to hear your experience!<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hello people!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's been a few months from my last post and I am sorry for that. My life has been so busy working at this new place and writing a blog was not in my mind lately. After few months of adapting, I am free to have some spare time and gonna catch up several new things in town.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So today I am gonna write about this new place called the garden. Based on its name, they really highlight those pretty things and put those flowers in every corner in the room. To my knowledge The Garden is one of the prettiest vibe I know in town. One step inside, it's like entering a whole new world. The Garden is located in Pantai Indah Kapuk, but all the ambiance they offer, it feels like having a really good time somewhere else.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You could see that everything is on point. The menu was so pretty and cute. The variety of the food itself was quite wide, with symbol of flowers to show their recommendation. They also have some selections of cocktails and desserts, which could make them a nice hang out place at night.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">To be honest, I was a bit skeptical when I was going to try their food. As we know that some of those pretty places was not accompanied with good food. I've heard some good reviews about them, and I hope they do not disappoint.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The title made it clear, they should be a bad ass one. The first thing on my mind was the size was quite small, I could really have it by myself. The fried rice was accompanied with onsen egg (which came like a regular egg) and well done wagyu. It was quite good, but nothing kicked my palate. The fried rice was spicy, which was actually good, but it's nothing more than a regular fried rice. The meat was just alright.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now this, was on of my favorite. Melt-in-your-mouth-pork, cooked with caramel to make it sweet and a hint of sour. The pork was so good and makes me drool right now. Again, the only thing was about the portion size.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This one also one of the highlight. The rice was so fragrant and so tasty when you mixed it with their sambal. I could not stop to dig in this full of carbohydrate meal. The duck was just fine, but I found it was too dry in some parts. Consistency with the duck could make this one awesome! Honestly, this one was the only meal that made us quite full.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This was my personal favorite. A 4 pieces of chicken dumpling, covered with fragrant creamy sauce. The Truffle was on point and the meat was tasty. However it was so small and I felt like one portion was not enough. The creamy sauce was the winner tho.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now let's jump to their dessert!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I tried Oops I Dropped My Ice Cream-IDR 55k, which was actually an upside down coconut ice cream with crumbles and yuzu. The crumbles and yuzu was so good, while I could not really taste the coconut. She's Slice of Heaven-IDR60k, also came in such a pretty presentation. It was mille crepe that came with 3 choices of sauces, taro, milk tea, and milo. I wanted to try different flavor so taro it is. The cake was so good and creamy, and the taro sauce was also delicate.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Overall The Garden is one pretty cafe with wide selections of food. The portion itself was not big, a size to try a little bit of this and that. The price was quite vary and little bit on the higher side. However the place is so pretty, and a good one to spend with your girlfriends (or boyfriend). Don't forget to snap some pictures here!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello, are you doing well?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I think you are. You are so contented, they said.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's good, I am please that you are good.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Losing is part of our life. It's funny how our stories were quite similar back then.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I guess my story is not part of yours, no more. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So let me write this one here, since you are not here to be shoulder to cry one.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Forfeiting this one hurts, a lot. It's worse than any heartbreak I know.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Those heartbreak, I could hold on. This one, I am not sure.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Insomnia greets me every other night, keep me awake even though I counted those sheeps.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I guess you sleep well, huh?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's like losing the directions,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It.s like a caffeine withdrawal,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's like a heartbreak in 2016,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">but much worse.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Food in Japan is dominated with good ramens, skewers, teppanyaki, okonomiyaki, and obviously sushi. None of my pick of food in Japan is bad, but I do give some highlight about this thing I'm gonna write.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Located in the heart of Dotonburi Osaka, finding this okonomiyaki house was easy with the long queue. The staff was not really friendly, but still this one was worth the try. The staff was going to cook it on the table and honestly I liked it a lot. The sauce was very flavorful and rich and tasty. I also had yakisoba, with burnt taste on the noodle, in a good way. However, you had to order one thing for everyone which made it very fulfilling.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I had this twice on my 12 days trip. That explained a lot, right? Thick slices of beef, sizzled in the hotpan in front of you, accompanied with warm rice, was surely gyukatsu motomura at its best. If you're a meat eater, you really have to order double racks of this goodness. Just remember that you could face the crazy long queue, and I do recommend to come at 4 pm, the least popular visiting hour. You can find them in Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Harajuku area.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At the inner part of Tsukiji Market, you'll find this hidden gem. You might be queueing for 1-2 hours, but their Omakase goodness (4000 yen) would make a festive in your palate. Their best cut would be sea urchin, melted and delicious at the same time. It could really be one thing that I won't forget.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You could find them in Tokyo and Osaka, but the queue was attached to them wherever they are. One portion of this was not cheap, but the toasted fluffy bun and fresh lobster could really tell the quality of the dish. A must try whenever you're around.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The sushi was famous with its conveyor belt. The price was not expensive, and you could really take all the plates because all of them was looked so good. Just beware that the blue plates had wasabi on it, so when you're not fond of it, take another color of plate.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You might be skeptical about this, but Coco Ichibanya is definitely one of the heartwarming dishes I have in Japan. Coco Ichibanya might be available in Indonesia, but I would say the original one in Japan is more delicious. The fact that I enjoyed it on winter made it even better. Go for the pork one, it's tasty!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Define a thinker. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In my case, it’s one thing that
describe me well. I am not really the one who could make decision in an
instant. I see the problem in front of me, going back and forth through the
choices, and still, cannot snap the
decision. Too many what-ifs run through my mind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Let’s see on the day when I am
looking for a sweater for my winter holiday. I’d go to the most complete mall
in the city, going into those interesting shops to look for what caught my
eyes. When I saw one, I would hold it for a while in front of the big mirror,
took a photo of it, spending some time at the fitting room and went out that
store empty handed. Yes, I would not buy it until I checked out another store.
At the end of the day if I did not find a better one than the previous thing I
was interested in, I would buy that previous one! In attempt of finding the
best thing, huh?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Theoretically, maybe it’s good.
You have to be careful to take the decision in order to get the best result,
right? Honestly, no. It’s killing me to find the best of those things with my
own way. I envy those people who are spontaneous in things, without having any
headache to decide what to do. If they like it, they buy it. Oh I wish I was
them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">You might be thinking, it’s not
difficult to change. Why don’t I being a spontaneous one and just pick all the
things I want? It’s easy, right? Well, it’s easy if the decision is picking
those clothes. The thing is, my thinker brain work worst when I have to decide
something important. Like now, where do I go to work? My brain keep making all
those possibilities and I end up going nowhere, except my brain. I remember the
day when I decided to take medical school, or the day when I entered on of the best
high school in my country and I did not even know back then. Best things
happened when I did not plan any of it. As much as I want to have that
superpower right now, I just can’t. This brain is just thinking too much, not
working very well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Yes, for those non-thinker brain
out there, I want your super-power.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Another newcomer in Jakarta food industry, and I got this recommendation from a friend who enjoyed in so much back in Sydney. Yes, this one is new branch of Dodee Paidang, a well known noodles in Sydney and Melbourne. This time, they chose Puri Indah Mall to be the spot, which pleased me because I lived in the neighborhood area.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">So basically Dodee Paidang is one Thai street food and noodle bar, which famous with its kind of flat noodle. On their menu, you could also found rice with soup, rice with porks, and thai desserts. Those kind of heartwarming food, they have it all. Unfortunately, they had a very bad service.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">So I tried their flat noodle with thai tomyum soup, with lotsa pork meat, meatballs, fishballs, and fried wonton skin. The soup was very fragrant, a good balance of all of those components, and it surely was a good choice to be enjoyed on a rainy night. The flat noodle itself really was a good complement for the bowl.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> The rice soup, we also found it interesting. The broth blends well will all the toppings. It might look like a soup for a sick person, but in fact it was tasty! I was quite surprised to find that this simple dish could really capture the tastebuds.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">So we also tried a dish of rice with pork skin and their sweet sauce. The pork skin was very hard for me and it was not really enjoyable to chew that kind of pork. My brother actually kinda loved the sauce, but the consistency of the pork was such a turn off.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Dodee Paidang was actually quite a good thing to try, even though the service was really really bad and I had such a bad time at Christmas eve. So four of us dined at Dodee Paidang, and ordered for dishes. After convinced the server that we ordered 4 dishes, in 15 minutes only 3 dishes were coming. I asked why, and the server said I only ordered 3. So I ordered one additional menu and kept asking her 3 times, every 10 minutes, why my food was not here yet. After waiting for quite a long a time (my patient brother eventually did not want to wait anymore), I asked for the server again to make sure that the dishes was already ordered. Turned out, it had not. I was quite angry, and the server was gone without trying to talk to me, not even sorry. So well, I hoped you treated your customer better.</span></div>

Mother Monster. A catchy name that caught me in the eye. It did not take long for me to give it a try. Located in the first floor of Plaza Indonesia, next to So Thai. It made me realize that I had quite some time since my last visit to this mall.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The pink and dark green ambiance are such a good companion to the good vibe. They are kind enough to let me have Christmas dinner with my girls at their long table (the best spot!). The place is very vibrant and alive. A good choice when you need to chill it a bit with your circle.</div>

Fancy a savory donut? You'll like this one! Crunchy dough stuffed with mozzarella and parmesan cheese could be interesting, but I only had this half of their portion because one whole donut was quite fulfilling for me. (I do not wanna miss another food to try!)</div>

The combination of sour tomato and sweet aftertaste are quite a kick. If you are a fan of tomato based pasta, then this pasta is the right one for you. The slow cook minced beef is delicious, goes well with the al dente pasta.</div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Di usiaku yang menginjak 25 tahun ini, aku sudah memiliki pekerjaan tetap sebagai dokter dan pekerjaan sampingan sebagai blogger/content creator. Gaji yang saya dapatkan terbilang cukup aman dan dapat memenuhi kebutuhan primer, sekunder, sampai tersier saya. Namun, pekerjaan yang saya lakukan adalah jenis pekerjaan yang harus saya kerjakan sendiri, dan memang saya bisa mengatur jadwal libur yang cukup fleksibel untuk saya sendiri, namun jika saya berhenti mengerjakannya tentunya saya tidak akan mendapatkan uang tersebut. Kita harus bisa membuat uang yang bekerja untuk kita. Itulah mengapa kita perlu belajar mengenai investasi.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Investasi terdengar sangat mahal, betul? Investasi identik dengan kuantitas uang yang tidak kecil dan melibatkan berbagai perusahan besar dengan jam terbang yang sudah tidak asing lagi. Tapi ternyata, ada wadah investasi yang cocok lho untuk kita!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Memperkenalkan KoinWorks, sebuah pionir FinTech lending dengan sistem P2P yang tentunya <a href="http://koinworks.com/blog/koinworks-resmi-terdaftar-di-otoritas-jasa-keuangan/" target="_blank">terdaftar dan diawasi Otoritas Jasa Keuangan</a>. So, tentunya aman! Konsep P2P ini sama dengan <i>marketplace </i> untuk mempertemukan peminjam dan pemberi pinjaman secara online. Investasi di KoinWorks dimulai di angka IDR 100.000, jadi daripada menghabiskan uangmu untuk belanja dan makan di luar, kamu bisa menyisihkan angka tersebut untuk investasi. Sebuah angka yang terjangkau bukan?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Sampai saat ini, KoinWorks memiliki lebih dari 30000 investor yang terdaftar. Bagaimana sih caranya menjadi investor? Kamu harus berusia minimal 21 tahun, memiliki SIM/KTP, dan tentunya akun bank. Investor bisa mendapatkan <i>rate </i>efektif yang dimulai dari 18% per tahun. Menarik engga sih?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Am I hearing the cheers of those ramen lovers? Yes, I think I am. Now you're gonna read my experience with those ramen shops in Japan, which was quite an extraordinary for me. Why is that? Because ramen actually is not something that I do crave for. I like how it taste, the richness of the soup, but I just don't like the after eating effect of this tasty bowl (sorry, ramen-addict out there!). But well, I was having a 12-day-trip in Japan and ramen is one of Japan's specialties,so having ramen is a must! Surprisingly I did try 7 ramens and enjoyed those moments. Without any further babbling, let's dig in the best 5 broth!</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Might be too mainstream, but I think having Ichiran delivered a whole new experience for me. A vending machine ramen to order, a private experience with you ramen (even the instruction said you have to enjoy every slurp of it!), and the probability that you might ask for another additional noodle inside. The broth was quite tasty, the meat was thin and juicy, while the noodle is soft. It was not the best I ever had, but Ichiran is quite a signature dish of Japan to try!</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Best ramen in my life, I would dare to say that. The noodle was chewy, a thing that could make you keep eating. The broth was quite thick ( I asked for the lighter version with collagen, and it was great!) and the pork meat was very thick. The bowl was very enjoyable, and they have spicy version for their ramen. The only setback was the meat that was too thick for me, but my company loves them. Make sure you have the gyoza, it's so juicy inside! Be ready for a long queue, because apparently 9-11 pm is their peak hour. Remember that they have no branches anywhere, so make sure you have the original one at Ikebukuro. The fact that the staff is very friendly, make me love Mutekiya even more!</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Why Fuunji? Because it's my first tsukemen experience, and I think I did it right. Fu-unji is located in Shinjuku, and it's not hard to find them with the long queue. You might be happy when you reach the vending machine, but apparently you still have to queue some more. I ordered tsukemen style of ramen (when you have to dip it to separated soup), and did not regret it at all! The chewy ramen dipped in a very flavorful broth was memorable to my palate. They do have 2 sizes, comes in medium or large. Hint for you, medium was perfectly fine for me. If you're not into tsukemen, they have the soupy kind of ramen too!</span></div>

The pork was fine, and they do have additional beansprout to add on. Zundoya could be your choice when you're in Shinsaibashi area.</span></div>

The burnt taste made it more flavorful, and the broth was just fine. They are quite popular with the long queue, but I found the staff was not maximizing the whole place effectively ( I found 2 empty seats while so many people were queueing outside, freezing in Kyoto weather!). However I did not like the way they charged their appetizer, 400 yen for a small bowl of tofu, each person. I could say I was surprise when the bill came, 7000 yen for 4 people was quite a money. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You might be wondering why should I experiencing this kind of confusion. As a legal medical doctor, I should be working at those good hospitals, right? Well, my friend, a journey of becoming a doctor is not that easy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Let's go back to those years when I was sitting in my high school chair, wondering what should I take on college. Dentist was my first choice, but they said the working utensils for dentist was quite pricey and after doing some research, I was not into it. Well, my mom suggested to take a medical school and without thinking twice I took it. Good thing about it was I kinda aced it. I enjoyed it better when I entered my clerkship program (some of you know this as ko-as/co-assistant). I knew that I love being a doctor ever since. It's such a blessing that I enjoyed the learning process of being a doctor because some of them might be taking medical school just because they're coming from medical family. I do grateful that those days back then brought such a good memories and I could say my medical college did a great job by harvesting they way of thinking and processing to become a good doctor.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After those 6 years and took an Hippocratic Oath, the government required the fresh graduate doctor to take an internship program. It's a program that necessitate several doctors to stay and work in one city for a year. You might be working in Jakarta, part of East Java, Bali, or even one little island in Papua. Work as a doctor in emergency department, ward, and puskesmas were our jobs back then. It's a good phase where you could feel how the real world are, how to act like a professional one in the hospital. I do remember my first near-to-death-patient. I was the only doctor in the ward with several nurses and I had to make the call about what to do next, about when to start the CPR, about what medication to use. Oh such an adrenaline rush. In fact, I am loving every second of it. Every patient is a unique one and they really are good teachers to me. The moment they smiled to you, the moment they said their gratitude, was just amazing. Imagine one kid came to the Emergency Department, with inflammation of the brain membrane and after those two weeks of sleepless nights, he woke up, without any fever and cry, and his parents were saying "thank you" with teary eyes. Amazing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So back here, I am confuse, because of the path I have to take. Being a specialist is my next goal and achieving this thing is far from easy. Picking the next place to work correlate with the next few years in my life. Should I take another year in secluded area in Indonesia (so that the government would give me a recommendation letter that I came from the secluded area)? Should I work in government hospital? Should I work in private hospital? Every step I choose can really bring me to different path.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The thing is, most general practitioner (GP) want to be a specialist, but not all succeed. Not because they are not smart enough, but the chances are not quite big. Moreover the one that come for doctors from private medical school. Chances are hard to get. Should I say that races and religion take big part in the acceptance in specialist program? Well, I can't tell, but I am sure you know what I mean ;)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Shoud I take the specialist program in Indonesia? Yes, if I'm planning to work in Indonesia. I could really take the specialist program overseas, where multicultural are much appreciated, but unfortunately I have to take another 2 years for the degree equalization and surely it's not easy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am writing this not because I have a bitterness in my heart. I am writing this because deep down in my heart, I believe that Indonesia's system could be better than this. As much as I hate about how those racism affect me, I still love being a doctor. I never differ people by their label when I treat the patients, and I hope Indonesia do not differ me by label when I am chasing my dream.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A medical doctor,</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Good architecture and comfortable space are those things that matter for me. Once I stalked Brood en Broter from their instagram, I know that this place is worth the visit. So I decided to spend my Sunday at Brood en Broter, Kemang.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Turns out that Brood en Broter is one restaurant with kid-friendly concept. Looks like they're quite well known with this concept, because most of their guests are those kind of new family with small kids. This place is quite spacious with pastel colors utensils and big bright window. The ambiance on weekend could be quite noisy because of the kids.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The food was quite dominated with fusion of Indonesian and a little touch of Dutch. I rarely found good cafe with Indonesian food so I could tell I was excited to try their menus (a big fan of Indonesian food here!). They also have breakfast menus which consisted of breads and eggs with quite an affordable price. The center room was filled with lotsa bread (roti jadul) with various fillings and donuts. Interesting!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For the food, I had <b>spaghetti ayam sambal matah (IDR 49k), nasi bakar (IDR 59k), and cumi terong balado (IDR 59K)</b>.

I have several favorite breakfast spots and spending the time there is becoming my weekly routine. Last week I saw a post from my blogger friend about this new cute finding in Menteng area, Pardon My French.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Pardon My French located in the busy street between Tanah Abang and Mentang which is perfect to attract the crowd. The parking space is also spacious (you know how those restaurants nowadays with tiny parking lot) and the service was very good. They help me park and refuse to get the parking tip for me.</span><br />

Es kopi susu was way too sweet for me, felt like having a melted candy. The coffee was okay though. However, I really love the serving of their coffee. The pastel colors won my heart easily.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Chicken Pesto Sandwich </b>was also an interesting dish to try. I'm quite a sandwich person so finding a decent sandwich is kinda hard nowadays. The baguette was crispy with good seasoning of pesto and chicken with some greens. I might under estimate this one at first, but turns out it's an enjoyable one!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Been having a thing with good <b>croque madame </b>and I was quite surprised that their croque madame was beyond my expectation. The bread was hard kind of bread, with delicious cheese everywhere, filled with meat inside. The highlight of the dish was surely the delicious and generous cheese which made me could not stop to dig in. The only thing was the bread was too hard for me (I am more like a fan of moist and thick bread), however it's only about personal preference.</span></div>

Actually this one came from their brunch menu, not the dessert list, but still can do. Tempting presentation of <b>French Toast with corn flake</b>, but unfortunately I did not fall for this one. The bread was too hard and sweet for my liking. The chocolate and condensed milk was everywhere. A guilty feeling right after I tried it (sorry belly!)</span></div>

It's October already and surely it's crazy how time flies! September has been a really great month for me and I'm gonna share with you guys the reason why.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So I just finished my internship program and am gonna be living in Jakarta several months from now. I do mention several months because for me it's still confusing to decide which city to work at, meanwhile my boyfriend is living hundreds kilometer for me. Anyway, I did visit him at Gorontalo at the end of September with my brother. It was such a good feeling to see him after a while. Good thing was, he planned a holiday trip for all of us to Pulo Cinta Eco Resort. (Check out my post on instagram too! <complete id="goog_1599553377">@jechristy)</complete></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Pulo Cinta Eco Resort is located in Gorontalo, 2-3 hours away from the center of the city. You can ask the Pulo Cinta team to pick you up (additional price if you only stay for one night, free for 2 nights stay) and after that, you will take the boat for 20-30 minutes to the beauty of Pulo Cinta.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It was 12 pm when we're arrived at Pulo Cinta. Unfortunately the weather was kinda gloomy and the sun was so shy to appear. The cloud was quite overwhelming and I was really hoping that the sun would shine because the weather matters to give a beautiful reflection to the sea. It was drizzling for a while so we spend the day at the beautiful room. Chilling and playing board games (we brought monopoly, I do suggest to bring your own board game because they do not have any). I went to snorkel at 3 pm while the drizzle stops. They have the snorkeling goods so we don't have to bring our own. Their lifeguard also have to come with us so that it will be safer for us, they also know where's the good spot to dive in!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The room rate is vary between weekdays and weekends. The room is made for 2 pax (additional 1 pax is allowed, with paying IDR 750k, but you won't get any extra bed), 4 pax, and 6 pax. The price is fixed because they also serve the food for us. If you're staying for 1 night, you will get 1 breakfast, 1 lunch, and 1 dinner. Worry not, if you're starving after those snorkeling activity, you will always pick up the phone to ask for instant noodle, bread, coffee, and tea, for free! The food itself was not bad, but it was not that special too. However, I found the service was very good.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They use solar system for their main energy, so hair drying is forbidden at night. They bring the fresh water from the land, so when the weather was bad, the boat with fresh water won't be able to sail. So it's better to use the water wisely! They have a big bucket in every bathroom, so we can have a spare. The wifi speed is okay, but due to bad weather, I could not rely on it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So they have island hopping activity to offer. We did not take it because we only have one day. Island hopping with additional of 800k/pax including 3 islands with guard. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Overall, Pulo Cinta could be an escape from the city hustle. The trip was quite a long one to reach here, but everything was worth the wait, especially when the weather is good. The place itself is really suitable for honeymoon couple. One day was enough for me, because actually they do not offer much activities around. I do suggest not to go there at the end of the year because the weather can be so gloomy. If you are able to go on weekdays, it would be nice too, because the rate was cheaper than weekends.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Indonesian dessert has always hold a favorite place in my heart. Any Indonesian desserts are special because they have their own story from area in Indonesia. My dad is also a big fan of it so he will always order it for dessert on our dinner time. One of his favorite is Es teler, which is consist of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avocado" style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #0b0080; font-size: 14px; text-decoration-line: none;" title="Avocado">Avocado</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 14px;">, coconut meat, </span><a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincau" style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #0b0080; font-size: 14px; text-decoration-line: none;" title="Cincau">cincau</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 14px;">, </span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackfruit" style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #0b0080; font-size: 14px; text-decoration-line: none;" title="Jackfruit">jackfruit</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 14px;"> that are served with coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk.

This seasonal menu is also to celebrate independence day of Indonesia, so they create something that close to Indonesian people, something that close to our heart. Yes, it's our favorite es teler, with the magic of Berrywell, turn into Teler Bowl. The same goodness, the same heartwarming, yet in healthier way.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">How to turn our favorite es teler into healthy Teler Bowl? My favorite smoothie bowl place is such a genius. They turn avocado, honeydew, and banana into smoothie base that bring the same tastiness with its traditional kind of teler bowl. The base of the smoothie is kinda heavier than their usual product, but it's very enjoyable and give you a longer time to be active until your next meal. The sweetness also comes from the coconut sugar infused with coconut milk. A fragrant bowl indeed.</span></div>

The bowl also covered with cold pressed beet chia jelly, which has the similar taste with the usual selasih we find in es teler. As you know that chia jelly has so many benefits and can make you feel full longer.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Overall Teler Bowl is one seasonal creation of Berrywell that you should try. Berrywell is being very innovative by creating seasonal product every several months. This teler bowl could be your choice of breakfast meal, or those days when you did not really into lunch and need something fresh! Moreover, avocado lover must have loved it! Guilt-free treat indeed.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I did recommend their product before this one some time ago and some of you still missed it. So make sure you try this Teler Bowl!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121;">As some of my closest people know that I am a big fan of bread. I know I know what you're thinking about. It's not healthy, it's full of butter and flour and sugar, it's the type of carbohydrate you might wanna avoid. But hey, I love it! I can stand having bread for my meal all day long. I remember once that I had a very heavy packed schedule on the hospital and all I got was this 4 slices of plain bread. I had it one for breakfast, one for lunch, and two for dinner. But yeah, I love breads that much!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #212121;">So when this friend of mine offered me to try their homemade bakery, I am more than happy. Turns out the bakery is Bake a Boo. A well known bakery since long ago, and to be honest, I've ever stalked their creation back then in facebook or BBM era! Yes it's a good sign that they're one consistent good bakery!</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Okay let's dig in the main story here. I am surprised by their generosity to send me this much, but overall I've gave them a try. They send me 'donat jadul' and some of their breads with chicken meat filling and choco cheese. First of all, I love love love the softness of the bread. I am the type of person who love soft bread, better than hard kind of bread. The texture is soft and buttery, without giving any overwhelming flavor. I also love the minute I open the box and my kitchen is spontaneusly filled with wonderful aroma! The donut itself is my another favorite thing, such a reminder to my childhood kind of donut. My favorite one? Surely the nougat topping on top!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;">Nowadays, it's so easy to see and judge people's life. You open this one apps, type their name, and boom, the page shows how they picture their life. The picture shows what a beautiful life they have. More over, the numbers on the social media says it all. Pretty pictures and those effort behind it tell the story no more. The story of that people's life, once again, dominated by its numbers. Numbers of followers, numbers of likes, numbers of engagement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In fact, your life is more than that.</span></b><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I am a part time food blogger, been playing in this industry for about 3 to 4 years. I am blessed and thankful that my writings been being blessings so I keep got invited until now, even though I could not attend more than half of those events. Once I was told that some people in food industry have a superficial sight about whom to get contacted by its followers. Oh wow. Not a shocking news, huh?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I do understand with this concept though. More followers means more people to see what they post, most people to be influenced with. Yes my dear, you can have that kind of thought when Instagram was such a hit 2 years ago. When followers are not fake and everything is not getting paid. Some say that there are few people who buy those numbers, well, who am I to judge, it's one of their effort right?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">But please, appreciate people more than its numbers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Once I got mocked by this company because I have some 'requirement' after they asked for my terms and conditions. They mentioned my amount of followers and compared with some of my friends'. Dude, why did you contact me and asked for the terms in the first place? I am more than happy to help you to post without getting any payment to help local brands, but please, do not compare my account. You do not know the story behind my page. You do not know my effort to spare some times to take those photos among my working shifts.You do not know the story of my life. So please, appreciate people, more than their numbers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I really appreciate my fellow bloggers, media, and public relation who keep supporting me after all this time. I really cherish those people who understand that in those time when I could not help them to promote, I also have another thing to do: I save lives.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Japanese
food is identical with its authenticity. Many of us who live in Jakarta know
that Blok M is kinda well known as the nest of authentic Japanese food. Even
they have the annual Japanese festival in the neighborhood.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Anyway,
I've tried some of Japanese restaurants in Blok M area. So far, none of them
was disappointing. This time I've tried one Japanese restaurant called
Kira-Kira Ginza. The name itself sounds promising to me. Excited to give it a
try!</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">A little
brief about Kira-Kira Ginza. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Kira-Kira Ginza has opened since 1985</span><span style="color: #365f91; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;">.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> This
authentic Japanese restaurant is still on strong contender among Japanese food
scene in Jakarta. After all this time, Kira-Kira Ginza maintains their good
quality with their affordable price. Turns out they are in the same group with
Daitokyo Sakaba and Sanpachi ramen.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></div>

inside the restaurant, we were welcomed by the usual Japanese greeting. The
warmth of Japanese ambiance was bold. The sound of laughter and small talks
filled the room, some of them were locals, some of them were those expats who
missed a piece of Japan. I was seated in the room with floor seating. For the
atmosphere, I could say I loved it! The scene was perfect for those people who
need stress reliever after their long day, accompanied with good food here. The
dim light was kinda relaxing, not to mention the comfortable feeling they
offer. Felt like home.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

greeted by this unique appetizer. As a first time, this kind of greeting might
surprising. Hiyashi Tomato was actually cuts of cold tomato served with salt
and Japanese mayonnaise. The tomato was so fresh, and the hint of salt was
kinda waking you up! What a succulent and healthy appetizer! I do recommend you
to give it a try!</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

favorite thing to eat whenever I visit Japanese restaurants is their sashimi!
These assorted sashimi, came in large portion, was a very satisfying one. Those
thick cuts of high quality and fresh sushi were so fresh. My favorite of all
those sashimi are salmon, tuna, and mackerel! They did not have any smell at
all, such a very enjoyable one!</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

maki was actually chopped belly tuna with leek. They were beautifully handmade
and the flavor was good as well. The freshness of tuna was just on point,
covered with Japanese rice and seaweed. This one might looked simple, but as

surprisingly, the simplicity is one thing that make it great!</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

was another unique thing I tried at Kira-Kira ginza! One portion of fried

salt before taking a bite. It was a very tasty experience when the pinch of

a big fan of curry rice because having curry rice reminds me of my childhood.
The curry was very fragrant, delivering a true homemade dish. The texture was
just right, not too heavy but quite thick, served with potato, carrot, and
beef. The rice itself was also the highlight because their Japanese rice was
very fragrant and kinda sticky. Love it!</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As a pioneer of Kopi Susu in Jakarta, they must have been very proud on setting the trend. I did remember on my first sip, this kind of coffee was not a familiar one to my taste bud. I never had a sweet iced coffee before. After a glass, I found myself craving for it though. For me, Kopi Tuku set the standard of Kopi Susu in Jakarta. Hint of palm sugar, mild coffee, ad rocks of ice, those kind of ingredients design a great cup of Kopi Susu!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Few things I love about animo: their cute little cafe in Cipete area (so far away from my neighborhood, tho), creamy Kopi Susu, and freshly baked bakery which was very tasty. The Kopi Susu itself is kind unique, they blend it through the process of making, producing one cup of cream Kopi Susu. On the first sip, it was heavenly! I found myself could not finished the whole cup because the texture was kind heavy and fulfilling. I do recommend to share it with family or friends. Don't forget to try their delicious pastry, too! Everything was so fragrant, tasty, and affordable.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kopilah is one collaboration between my fave coffee shop (Calibrate Coffee) with Eatlah. This portion of Kopi Susu was a perfect size for me. The coffee was not too mild to give you the caffeine boost, with a hint of sweetness that quite dominating (reminded me of maple syrup, tho). I can really drink this every single day!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So many people popped out a question: why did you start becoming a food blogger back then?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Well, you know, food blogger is one quite busy 'job' nowadays. Food tasting here and there, new restaurants are coming out, new menu in every seasons. Food blogging has become one lifestyle here, in Jakarta.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But I started my food blogging activity back in 2011. At that time I did not even know that food blogging could be something 'in' like this. I did poured all my love about food just because I love writing. Writing had became one of my dreams. I wanted the world to know my point of view, a thought from one introvert girl in the world that could not stop talking. I wanted them to know me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I did keep on writing until I get my first food tasting invitation at one bakery in Jakarta. I was so glad, happy because finally some people read about my thought, appreciate it, and trust me enough to try their creation. It was one magical feeling when you realized that your rows of words meant something to some people. I would not forget that kind of feeling.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After that, I kept on writing. I met some wonderful people that taught me a lot. Some people that inspired me to do bigger things.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Strangers have became friends. Friends have became family. Some people stay. Some people don't. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And I grateful for every moment of it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At one point, besides all the good things I got from food blogging, I got this one tiny bad seed on my heart. Sometimes I got envy with people around me, with people who did better than I did, with people who got more exposure than I did. Once I thought about quitting, because this job, this hobby, grew an envious heart in me. But a good friend did push me through all of this, convinced me that I was a blessed one too, and made me realize that things could not be measured with fame and money.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Yes I did realize that those things sometimes did not matter. I did not really care about exposure anymore. I did not really care about how many followers or likes I got in my social media. I got more than that. I found family. I am happy that my writings can reach so many people. I am happy that I can finally learn to socialize with so many kinds of people. Long story short, I learned a lot.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An introvert girl has become an ambivert.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Some said that food blogger is kinda saturated nowadays. Is it true? Well, you decide.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The important things is, this food blogging thing I am doing, is my love for writing. Until now I am still the same person with dreams of reaching so many people with my thoughts. Those fancy cameras and social medias are good companion for my hobby/carrier, but still, my heart at writing is my main reason to be a food blogger.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Best regards,</span></div>
