[TRAVEL EDITION] A PLACE THAT HAVE TO VISIT IN BUSAN

Hi fellas, happy Sunday! How's your Sunday? It must be good right, and if u have a bad day today don't worry coz i will be post about something that maybe interesting for u :)

Today i'm gonna post about a place that u have to visit when u go to Busan. What is Busan? I know that some of u don't familiar about this town coz people know more about Seoul than Busan but if u watch Korean drama "Reply 1997" u must be know :D Well, Busan is the second biggest metropolitan city in South Korea after Seoul. It has many beaches, mountains, temples and so on. This city's atmosphere is same as Surabaya and Karanganyar in Indonesia and Chicago and Los Angeles in United States

• Haeundae Beach: Hauendae Beach is the most famous beach in Busan. It is located at Haeundae District and people usually go to this beach on summer, so if u go to Haeundae on summer season u will see a lot of people here, especially at evening. I've been to Haeundae when i first came to Korea but not so many people went there coz it was still winter season and of course it was really cold and nobody swam there :p

• Gwangalli Beach: Gwangalli Beach is also the famous beach in Busan and it is located at Gwangan District. I suggest u go to Gwangalli Beach at night coz u can see the lightness of Gwangan Bridge and it's so beautiful. At night,there's a lot street performance and when i watched cover dance performance the dancer mistaken me as Thai coz my face really doesn't look like Indonesian. Then in the morning many people jogging there coz it also has a jogging track and last year i'm often joged here in the morning.

• Nampo-dong: Nampo-dong is one of tourist attraction in Busan. It is a shopping district where u can fullfill ur shopping district coz there are a lot of stuff with cheap price but good quality, it's the same as Mangga Dua in Jakarta. When i went there, i bought shoes, skirt, hair pin and many more. I'm also did photoshoot here just for fun hihihi. Then u can also find a variant of Korean cosmetics such as Etude House, Nature Republic, Innisfree, The Face Shop and many more.

• Taejongdae: This place is famous with it rock beach and it is located along with Oryukdo island. It's an ideal place for u who like to hiking and my senior in my former university said that many of older people hiking there. Hope that i can go there when i go to Busan again :)

• Jagalchi Market: The most famous market in Busan. It sells many of seafood such as raw fish, squid and many more. In here, u can also find a Korean traditional street food such as tteokbokki, odeng, sundae, and many more. 

• Haedong Yonggungsa Temple: This temple is located at coast of north-eastern portion of Busan and it is one of the famous temple here. I've been here once when my university had a cultural experience trip and I prayed there. 

Yup, that's it for today and if u wanna know more about Busan u can visit

[TRAVEL EDITION] FAMILY VACATION IN PUNCAK

Hi everyone, as I promised i will share you about my family vacation trip in Puncak. From Thursday until today i had a trip in Puncak with my family to celebrate New Year, and we also wanna escape from hectic Jakarta to calm place for a while :D

So, on Thursday me and my family went from home to Puncak about 10.50 am and we arrived at Puncak around 2 pm and we went to my aunty's villa directly. Yup, during four days and three nights i stayed at my aunty's villa in Puncak so i don't need to look for hotel anymore coz i got a free stay :D
Fyi, this villa is located across Ayam Goreng Cianjur and to find out this villa you have to "masuk gang".

I really like this villa coz it's really cozy and the yard is sooo wide, and i'm played soccer there (who said that soccer is only boys sport, girls can play too). Sometimes i played by myself or with my cousins, beside that i'm also workout, do capoeira and dance there hihihihi. Then there's another room beside the villa and it has table tennis' table, so we can play it. Yesterday i played a table tennis with my niece against my older brother and cousin and we lost :(. But, it's okay, it doesn't matter. The matter is it's fun, that's it :D

On second and third day, we celebrated new year with barbeque party and grilled chicken coz my aunty brought it from Jakarta hihihi. 

At night, we also had a shabu-shabu party but i'm not took the photos coz i'm too enjoyed the food so i didn't have a time to take it, sorry.

So far, i think this trip was really fun coz i had a chance to make a quality time with my family, but unfortuneatly i'm not use my time wisely coz i'm too busy with my smartphone :(. Yup, next time i should less using my smartphone and interact more with people around me, it could be my family, friends, lover, or anyone. 

Yup, that's it for today. Unfortuneatly, during my vacation trip suddenly i catched a cold :(. So, after arrived in Puncak, suddenly i snooze non-stop and my nose just started runny. Maybe i should rest more so this cold will be go away. See u fellas :)

Lots of love

MY ADVENTURE IN GRAND INDONESIA PART 1

Selfie with my crazy friend, Jason

Hi everyone, this is my first post and it's about my journey at Grand Indonesia Shopping Town with this crazy friend hehehehe, and it will divided into two parts, and this is the first part, so check it out :)

So on October 28th, I had a meet up with my friends, but unfortuneatly we met just two of us coz our other friends are so busy with their college. Then we decided to go to Grand Indonesia on that day. Around 10.30 a.m, he picked me up with car in front of my house then we going!!!

Due to really bad bad traffic jam in Fatmawati, we just arrived at Grand Indonesia at almost 1 p.m which is lunch time then we directly found out some restaurant then we found it, it's Tokyo Belly. In Tokyo Belly we ordered this.

After lunch, i've decided to take some photoshoot around 3A floor just for fun. Then this is another photoshoot ^^

After this we just walking around Grand Indonesia and have many chit chat also we had a karaoke at T-Rex. At 4.30 pm we went to Sour Sally to buy these delicious yet healthy frozen yoghurt ;p. My friend bought regular Black Sakura and i bought Riche Black Sakura with Almond, Kiwi, Strawberry, Peach and Matcha Latte Sauce. 

I just tried this yoghurt for the first time and it so delicious, the taste is just like blackberry i think. Actually Black Sakura is yoghurt which is combination from Sakura blossom with natural activated charcoal which is very good for detox and high in antioxidants. So if you wanna have a food that can detox your body, this is a right choice for you :)

I really really enjoyed my adventure here, coz i rarely go outside due to my illustration assignment. FYI, now i'm a illustration student at Carrot Academy in Pulomas and i take Diploma Course at my school. 

Well that's it for today, and i will post the second part soon. Thank u for reading my first post then see u :)

Lots of love
