Musei Vaticani

I was a sixth grader when I read Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons for the first time. A 12-year-old boy reading a story of cunning murders and secret society of Illuminati. The book enthralled me with its fast thrilling plot as there were always surprises on every corner of the pages. Most importantly, it took […]

Kyoto: The Old Charms

There were two things that driven me to visit Japan: Hogwarts in USJ Osaka and the thousands of Torii gates of Fushimi Inari in Kyoto. I never expected that Kyoto itself was way more than just the charming Fushimi Inari. When I was there, I had the chance to visit the Arashiyama Bamboo Groove (which […]

It was only a couple hours before we landed on Incheon Airport, Seoul. We had a marvelous flight with […]

Bromo: Kali Kedua

Kalau ada seseorang yang tanya ke gue: “Momen apa dari trip Bromo yang paling nggak bisa lo lupain?”, gue akan jawab: “Pas kelihatan dari sebelah timur semburat antara merah, jingga, kuning bercampur gelapnya malam terus pelan-pelan matahari mulai naik meluruhkan sisa hitamnya langit dan dari bayangan gelap di sebelah kanan lo yang tadinya nggak ada […]

Miniman and Me

My enduring relationship with the Miniman started way before I knew that it’s indeed a Danish company, or that the terms itself derived from the phrase of leg godt means play well, or that how unbelievably highly expensive those bricks actually are (well, most of them I got it from Mum and Dad). with Lego Set […]
