TOKYO! Kinda late post, so sorry for that. So, here is my short trip to Tokyo in last January. You will realize how cheap Tokyo is. Well, as I wrote to my previous post that now I'm currently living in Tsuruoka, Yamagata prefecture (Northern Japan). If you look at the map Tsuruoka and Tokyo is pretty much far. In fact, I spend more than 10 hours for Tokyo and as I'm student who love cheap travel so that I use Ju-Hachi-Kippu. Ju-Hachi-Kippu (18 ticket) is cheap ticket produced by JR line which made for high school student in Japan to provide their cheap travel to any places in Japan. It was long time ago and now people in general love this ticket, cause it's cheap. As always, price is quality. Get ready to be tired using this facility cause you will need to get down in every station and change train. You can imagine how tired it is when you have to travel from Northern to Southern Japan, like I did. But it's me, with my backpacker soul :D I visited some spo...

Hadiah Wisuda Untuk Kawan di Jepang Graduation is the most incredible moment for all students and that's one of the best day in their life, indeed. As friend, we supposed to grand them by giving present or anything in order to appreciate their hard work till that day comes. Flowers probably is the most famous and general thing to be given, but if you are creative and wanna give them something by your own, it's gonna be so much worth. I made this thing for my Japanese friends in their graduation and I think, it's pretty cool. These thing just came out 5 days before graduation ceremony and I spend my two nights for that. Hope they'll like. Flowers in vase  Vine plant in chair I made them very simple and things you need only flannel, glue and something to be a chair and stalk. Hope it can inspire you guys :)

Shonai Visitors Association (SVA) Just realize how beautiful scenery, culture and nice people are Japanese. They are incredibly attract myself to  be more and more willing learning about Japanese language. Honestly, it feels bad when everybody around you, foreigners especially, talking in Japanese while you still need an interpreter. But yeah it needs process!  Anyway, last week was the most amazing week ever, Saturday went to Zao for Ski and again on Sunday spend the rest of energy for trekking with Shonai Visitors Association. I just don't mind at all. The SVA brought me into a very nice place and meet some nice people with so cute kids playing games and interact with them, and of course, food! MWAHH..and it's free! It was so much better than spend Sunday on bed. Bed is an old story already. Trekking! My favorite. Trekking is always fun somehow. I always love to have a trekking-moment with snow. Get close with snow is just nice, Indonesia is pretty rare of snow, ev...

ZAOOOO! It's been so a while not catch up my blog, well here I came back. Been so busy with tour and research, it's completely make me bankrupt :p And the story of today is... My trip to... ZAO ! For you who lives in Japan or surrounding Yamagata, surely know very well this mountain, a very famous spot for Skiing and Snowboarding, Juhyo (snow monster) or probably nice spot for spending holiday with family and relatives, even boyfriend :p Zao is absolutely beautiful which is every year full of snow. Zao is easy to be access from Yamagata by bus or train, this time I use bus. Well, since I live in Tsuruoka, which is 2 hours from Yamagata, I need more budget this time, at least 15.000yen. Let me tell you the details for the trip! (From Yamagata city to Zao, you need to take bus for 20 minutes trip) -Tsuruoka-Yamagata city (return): 5,800 -Yamagata city-Zao (return)        : 2,000 -Ski rent                   ...

Pertama kalinya lihat Wedding Ceremony di Gereja, dan ini di Jepang, di gereja bersejarah. Sugoi ne... cuma bisa bilang CANTIK. Untuk semuanya, bridenya, groomnya, gaun, design interior gereja, upacara, bunga, keluarga, dan yang lebih wow Romonya orang Indonesia donk.  Let's check out some of their photos: #1. Groom masuk #2. Bride masuk didampingi oleh ayah dan beberapa orang  #3. Setelah groom dan bride masuk, mereka berdua harus mengucap janji di hadapan Tuhan. Proses yang ini cukup panjang karena sebelum mengucap sumpah, Romo akan terlebih dahulu berdoa cukup lama. #4. Setelah proses yang panjang dan resmilah pasangan ini menjadi suami-istri. Selamat selamat !!! :) Inilah saya bersama Romo pemimpin gereja. Good job Romo Sri Waluyo:)
