Strong and beautiful
Paris, 7 November 2008. It was on our way to Eiffel Tower, when we passed the road with ancient and beautiful buildings at its sides.
Fresh with colourful trees
Enschede, 31 October 2008. Unforgettable fieldwork I did so far. The site was very nice and so refreshing.

The Beauty of Dahlia
They don't have nice smell but they have pretty shape and so colorful. They are Dahlia. I captured these pics at Cibodas Botanical Garden, Jawa Barat, in January 2012

Deer at Bogor Palace
Among shopping centres and food court that have been established in many places in Bogor, Bogor Palace is a peaceful place especially for deer…:) Located in the middle of the city, Bogor palace provides the nice view and trees there donates fresh air to people there. Sadly now number of public transportation is growing and growing so fast… therefore I don’t feel peacefulness and clean air as deer in Bogor Palace have.
I wish I have a house in Bogor Palace area, so I can enjoy green landscape and inhale fresh air every day. I am dreaming…:)

Lotus flower
A lotus flower is going to be in full blossom
That glorious evening has passed,
I saw thy by the side of the river path.
Then it clearly came to my mind,
That passing over the peaceful night,
In the morning of the beautiful day that shines,
It would be in full blossom,
The the fruit ripens and the seeds rupture,
Manifesting love and compassion with wisdom
~ Uncle Eng Shing Pong

Better to be strong than pretty and useless
Instead of being busy to makeup my face, I want to spend my time to learn some things new that will broaden my knowledge, to find solutions for problems I face, to meet challenges that will increase my value, to improve myself by learning failure in the past, to always try to give more benefit to others.
All these things will make me to be a stronger and usefull woman :)

Jasmine at my front yard
Jasmine Flower
A flower so appealing to the senses and eyes.
Fragrance so sweet, beautiful, upon the air it lies.
This Jasmine flower in the palm of my hand.
Brings me such joy that I cannot, in truth, understand.

Ayam Penyet, one of my favorite Indonesian cuisine
I don't remember when exactly I ate this meal for the first time. I think it was in Malaysia in 2010. Since end of 2008 I tried to eat chicken and quit to be a semi-vegie person. Because of trauma that I got in senior high school, I didn't eat chicken, meat and sea food for long time.
Now, I can taste this meal "Ayam Penyet". I like the spicy dan crispy fried chicken with chilli sambal. It complete with hot rice and raw vegetables. It's perfect for lunch or dinner.
So now... everywhere I go, I will find Indonesian food, especially Ayam Penyet :)
Here are some pics of Ayam Penyet that I tasted in some places....:)

So refreshing
Anyone can guess where is this place? :) If your answer is a place in Bogor, then your guess is correct...:) Yes it's spring water at Puncak, Bogor. Bogor is my hometown, a small city, but beautiful, not far from Jakarta. How can you get this place? This place is not difficult to find. When you drive to Bandung from Bogor through Puncak road, you can see the large tea plantation. Before you pass hilly ways, you will see the main entrace to the tea plantation company "Gunung Mas". Across this gate, you will find a small gate to reach this water spring.
So... visit this place, and enjoy the fresh of spring water ...:)

Sagu Rangi, Traditional Cake from Betawi (Jakarta)
Sagu Rangi is a traditional cake from Betawi (a tribe in Jakarta). It made from sago flour, coconut and brown sugar..
Taste it while it's fresh from the oven...:)
Wishing the clear and blue sky
Since last week I arrived in my hometown, I hardly found the clear and blue sky as I saw in Los Banos, The Philippines some months ago...
I asked myself "why...?", mmh maybe because here is entering rainy season now.. or because of polution?
