Holiday in Bandung

I went to Bandung last holiday with my family. We went there by my car. It took long time to reach Bandung. As people could see, Bandung is almost the same with Jakarta, but the differences are in it’s culture. Not only that, Bandung also had so many cold areas like Ciater etc. It was so wonderful in Bandung. I could release all my things at there.

After we arrived in Bandung city, we had a look at another places like ITB, UNPAD etc. Then we had a lunch in a small restaurant. After lunch, we continued our way to Ciater. Hope less, it had a big traffic in the way to Ciater. So we stopped in a café until evening. Then we continued our way. It was so dark and it was scary on the left or right side. Only trees that we could see because we took pick the way to the higher place. Finally we arrived in Ciater.

Ciater was so cold and comfortable. It was nice and well-known as it’s sulfur bath. But although it was night and the temperature was cold, it was still hot in the sulfur pool. Not only that, the sulfur bath was so skinny and we didn’t have to let our eyes touch the water. Sulfur is almost same like salt. It could make our eyes hurt. But the advantage of sulfur bath is it was make our skin became light and fresh. Then after I took bath, I went to sleep.

The next day was my last day in Bandung, so I had to spend it rightfully. The first thing that I does was riding a horse. It was nice to ride horse when the air was fresh and comfortable. After that, I went to strawberry garden. At there I knew the process of harvesting a strawberry. After that, I went back to the bungalows and packing. After we checked out, we went to a Sundanese restaurant to have a lunch. The food was delicious. After we had a lunch, we went to Cihampelas. That was the most crowded place in Bandung because it was the last place that everyone visited before coming back to Jakarta. There were many shops and places to visit, like instrument shop, tattoes, etc. After having fun, we went home.

It was a wonderful holiday…

Holiday In Tembagapura

 Last year I went  to Tembagapura. Tembagapura is a district in the town of Timika  located in Papua, Tembagapura are in  Jayawijaya mountains.Tembagapura is  “KOTA DI ATAS AWAN”. This is not the first time i go to Tembagapura,  but is for the  5th time  and I never get bored to visit tembagapura. To get into the district it was very hard because they have security and very strict rules and We must have the permission if you want to visit Tembagapura. the majority of the population in Tembagapura are employees in freeport , and while in Tembagapura we should use the id card from freeport.

I depart from the  Juanda International Airport  to Mozes Kilangin International Airport , it took 6-7 hours. In timika airport , my father and his friend has been waited for us (me, my mother and my brothers) to take us to Tembagapura. For the first time Iam  so excited because we're using helicopters , helicopter are usually used the employees to go from Tembagapura to Timika, why we use helicopters ?? I do not know,,, but  my father said the condition of roads was not good if we use the bus, To tembagapura you can by bus but it took 2-4 hours.  bus are usually used  to Tembagapura is a bus that has a bulletproof, and be guarded by police  .after arriving in Tembagapura I go to the hotel to rest and eat. The next day , we explore  Tembagapura. not much different from the the last time I went to Tembagapur.Tembagapura have nice view, and i can see waterfall located in  Java wijaya mountains.   I visited the gardens were built in the mined lands, I also visited the very famous the football field in Tembagapura and is often used for training Persipura and timnas Indonesia.

And my favorite place in Tembagapura when I visited is DOZ (deep ore zone), DMLZ(deep mile level zone). DOZ, DMLZ,and GBC it is a place in underground mine. First if you want to visit underground mine zone , you must follow the instructions directed by the underground division. you must use boots and safety equipment are provided.we visited underground by car. It is so unique, all the cars that employees use have a white color and have one brand that is toyota.In the underground is very dark but i could see some workers , some cars , and many trucks. So Unique, in the underground there are  have mosques, churches, and canteen.  Atmosphere in inside of underground mine  was very scary, because quiet and dark .After that,we out and i met my friends to explore tembagapura.And next day  for the first time, because I was 17 years old,  I allowed to visit  place to  mining processing in the Grasberg mine. To get to the Grasberg mine we use the cable car or we can call “TRAM”. I was excited  see the landscape , Jayawijaya mountains and tembagapura from cable car. So beautiful. Grasberg Mine air temperature is very cold, after instruction, we allowed to enter the factory and see how they manage the raw materials into semi-finished materials and then sent to the lowland through the pipe, and after that we explore grasberd mine , if you don’t know what it's Grasberg mine ,you can search  on google.

We in highland tembagapura for 4 days, while I there, I met a native of  Papua we play together and photo together , and i met new friend. Tembagapura have a small place called "hidden valley".And we stay for 4 days in hidden valley. Hidden valley is my favourite place. when I was in a hidden valley, I feel like I'm in  america or in Europe . Tembagapura city has complete facilities, they have a hospital, a school, a market like Hero or Giant, and canteen, cafe and etc. after 4 days in Tembagapura I go to Kuala Kencana. Kuala kencana it is lowland of Freeport in Papua. kuala kencana is beautiful modern city and a city like in Europe or in America. And we explore kuala kencana. After that I reunion with my friends who I met when I first went to kuala kencana and tembagapura. And they is  a children from dad friends. i'm so happy because for the first time I allowed to go into place of   mining processing  factory in the Grasberg mine, actual minimum age is 13 years but at that time I can’t get to the Grasberg Mine because of the weather . And i meet many new friends and new experience again.

DAYS IN AUSTRALIA

on 22nd of october 2016, I got the chance to go to the Home of The Kangaroos. Yep! I went to Australia! the exact is at Sydney. I was so so sooo happy that I finally got the chance to go there. I went to Australia right after the mid-term test, with my older brother. We departed from Solo and had a transit at Jakarta first before we flew all the way to Sydney. It took us about 7 hours on a plane ride to Australia and it was about 11 am when we finally got there. The time difference is about 4 hours.
      After we arrived at the Kingsford International Sydney Airport, we headed to a restaurant in Chinatown by bus. Chinatown itself is the busiest region and a centre of trading in Sydney. After we had a lunch at that Dragon Restaurant, we headed to our hotel, it's called The Rodges and it's located at the centre of the city so we didnt need so much time if we wanted to go to somewhere because it rather close to anywhere from here.  and the weather when I first got there was so bloody cold! It was around 15 degrees and I was freezing as hell! 
Then after that, we headed to Bondi Beach and owww the weather was getting colder than before and the blowing of the wind is just so strong! At the beach, there were a lot of people just walking around, doing sports, having a conversation, eating, and just chilling around. Personally, I didn't enjoyed myself so much there because It was so cold and i was so bloody freezing and the wind is quite disturbing to my veil. We were only about one and a half hour there before we headed to the next destination that were Opera Sydney and The Harbour Bridge. I saw sooo many people there... Around the opera Sydney, there were a lot of Cafe's, and people were chatting, sitting, eating and laughing together. The sea was filled with a lot of ships that was going through. And the sky was so clear! I walked around and took pictures and i bought myself a gelato and it was awfully delicious! 
The next day, we went to Koala Park. It was the first time I saw koalas with my own eyes, but unfortunately they were sleeping but still, they were sooo cute! And I saw Kangaroos closely and touched them too! 
After from the Koala Park, we went to Blue Mountain. The Blue Mountain is a famous for the people's favorite place to spend their retirement days. When we were at the Blue Mountain, we were amazed by the beautiful scenery. And in the blue mountain, there is a mountain called Three Sisters. They called three sisters because their location is close to eachother and people here said that is was once a king's curse to his three daughters. That's way it called Three Sisters. After from the Blue Mountain, I walked to a restaurant nerby, and ate a typical Australian food. The restaurant itself has an unique interiors. Underneath the restaurant, there was a  stage show which continually showed Aboriginal Show. I bought two tickets and watched the show. I saw four aborigines telling history about their culture and people, and they danced their tribal dance. It was so cool but I prefer Indonesia's culture because its more beautiful, in my opinion. The show only lasted for 20 minutes. After that I went Scenic World, it's a tourist attraction place. I bought an "unlimited" tickets that costed AUS$35, so that I can rode Scenic Skyway, Railway, Cableway, and Walkway multiple times. All of them, make me want to go back to Australia. The Koala's park region, the Blue Mountain, and Scenic World, located in the outside of Sydney. We went there by bus and it took 2 hours to get there, fortunately there were no traffic jams in Australia. 
In the next day, I went to the Darling Harbour region. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of blue seas, and lot of cruises that turn into restaurants. I went to of the restaurants and ate there. Inside the cruise, there was an old man; one of the cruise's crew which duty is welcoming the guests and he plays magic for entertain the guests. The old man is very old, presumably about above 80 years. But he is so friendly and kind. He wore a tuxedo and red hat; like jewish attribute.  The cruises get around the river there. the scenery became more beautiful. When we were almost reached the Opera Sydney and Harbour Bridge, the passengers came out and took pictures, climbed up the cruise. And the wind blew so strong, I get a little bit nausea from standing in the cruise. After from the cruise, I went Botanic Royal Garden Sydney. I took a walked with Opera Sydney and Harbour Bridge as the scenery. I saw a lot of people doing sports activation, there. 
I got a lot of experiences from this trip. This trip increased my desire to study harder than before so that I can study abroad in developed countries, includes Australia. 
I wish I can continue my study in developed countries and the knowledge I get from there will I bring back home with me, to my dearest Indonesia. And dedicated myself so that I can give some benefits to my country. 
That's all. Thank you! Wish me luck! (and you too.)
