It is the first time I visit Borobudur by my own intention lol. And this time is kinda special because Borobudur was so empty and sunny *well, it’s more like so hot* we only took like 2 hours walk around and up to the temple, and we feel tired already, I mean the heat…ufff

Yogyakarta: Once in A Year - Sekaten Fair

Even 5minutes before our appointment hour, I still couldn’t ensure myself whether I’m going. Last time I went to Sekaten was like 5 years ago! Damn, I didn’t really enjoy our local festival because, well, personal. Sekaten is identic with its play land, its cheap goodies, foods, traditional toys, cotton candy, and the most important one imo is the exhibition in the center, usually educational. About personal obstacle is that.... I never have guts to have fun.

Surabaya Trip Part II: Full Day Trip

Continuing my previous post; EHEF was my main destination. So for these trips, they're only such time killer till the time my train depart to Jogja. But for these trips, I did take so many pictures, since I paid less attention compare to EHEF, hehe

Surabaya Trip Part I: EHEF 2014

It was 30hrs before my trip, I just decided it very dramatically due to heart break! AGAIN! Isn’t that annoying you have someone disappointed you and you need an escape to at least relieve the pain? That’s what I did, for the second time. At the first, I made my way to escape my country Indonesia! But several days ago, I just made it to Surabaya, but with so much European taste. Hell yeah!

1. European Higher Education Fair 2014

This was my main destination that I finally visited Surabaya. I’ve been dreaming living in Surabaya several years ago but the univ I applied in was rejecting me, so, poor me, staying in Jogja was win-win solution. But anyway, EHEF was an exhibition presenting tens European Universities in one place; they're from: Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and United Kingdom.

Beringharjo, The Heart of Traditional Market in Yogyakarta

Beringharjo, as I believe it is the largest and oldest traditional market in Yogyakarta as it has started its activity since 1758 (source), provides like the whole things from A to Z *I guess* hehe

Beringharjo market is very close to main tourism spots in Yogyakarta, which are Malioboro, Fort Vredeburg, Alun-Alun Utara, and Keraton Yogyakarta (Sultan’s Palace).

Merapi Walk

This was a quite old trip with friends to Merapi but only in the slope, not to the peak. It’s 3km to the peak of Merapi Mountain and we did enjoy the nature and the giant damage after the massive eruption in 2010 (yes, it’s getting beautiful since the eruption and become one tourism spot in Yogyakarta).
