WORLDWIDE | Monday, 23 April 2012 | Views [214] | Scholarship Entry
Hello, my name is Nalal Muna, I’m from Indonesia, I’m in my second year of my master degree studying management in MMUGM Yogyakarta. One described my life right now is “monotone”. Monotone activities in campus, bunch of assignments, same routine, same route from home and campus, meet the same faces every day, almost 20 hours consuming laptop radiation, and the worst is being fed up in life and end up doing nothing to cherish your life. Beyond of all, I am very blessed to have my small travel community, which we named it “PaperBacker” that never failed to bring me back on the right track to taste life in different way.
Giving back on the road define PaperBacker perfectly. PaperBacker is small community I established with my mates, Dhika and Yuki as our high lust in traveling. PaperBacker itself comes from our random jumbling game of “backpacker” words when we lay down on pure white sand aside Bandengan Beach, Jepara. Jepara is small town in the north coast of Java which is famous in teak wood carving art. Instead of its teak wood, Jepara is rich with miscellaneous beautiful beaches from resort beach untill untouchable beach. We are so hyped up to realize our dream in building traveling community which uphold green traveling. finally http://paperbacker.blogspot.com born, a medium where we tattooed our wonderful journey and as out footprint to capture all the memory live among us.
PaperBacker web-blog ultimately represent our gift for everyone. As a footprint which always remind us to give back on the road widely that totally new, random, unknown, unique and unexplored place around the world. PaperBacker strive to conduct green traveling as our giving back effort as travel stewardship to the people and nature among us. By encouraging our travel buddy to bring along their own tumbler everywhere we traveled. PaperBacker provides water tank to refill and distribute our designated bag to avoid them throwing rubbish recklessly.
