a little story of my amazing backpacker
INDONESIA | Wednesday, 30 April 2014 | Views [234] | Scholarship Entry
At the end of 2010 I dont know how could it happen, that I knew I only had a small dream to go there for free. What amazing day, I heard from a teacher that there is an invitation to me to go to Jakarta.I live in a village at Bali island ,Indonesia, which is very far from the city, I never go anywhere before. And at that time I would go to the biggest city in my country, Yes,Jakarta or somepeople preferred to call Jekardah. Its a miracle from my God.
On december 31, I depart from Ngurah Rai Airport to Soekarno Hatta by my self,this my first experience get on a plane. Arriving there, I was met with an artist, his name is Dimas Andrean. I am on one plane with him .. hmmm .. he's very handsome. I do not know where to go, I finally called a friend of my father.He helped me get the next destination, Treva International Hotel.
It is soo comfort place, but after I came out of the hotel, the air was very hot.
The new year in Jakarta was not as I imagined, I imagine the atmosphere will be solid and fun, Its not!! but the next day there are still many places I would visit, tanah abang market, Istiqlal Mosque and kota tua museum.
The first , I went to the market, I found a lot of stuff that does not exist in my village, the low price I bought some fabric, clothing and accessories .Next I went to the istiqlal mosque, the largest mosque is in my country. Not much that I remember from this site other than as a place of worship of Muslims, but a magnificent building to distract me.the purpose of the latter is to the museum, there is a lot of historical relics, relics of the vehicle from the moment the Dutch colonized Indonesia, weapons and buildings that bear witness to the struggle of Indonesian nation.
so much fun to receive this gift certificate, and this is the best experience during my trip. I don't know how I could be here.
