Hello world!

Hello world!

Ever since I moved to United States, my passion about food and traveling had been becoming more and more intense. In US, there are plenty kinds of food from all over the world, ranging from the least expensive to the most expensive one. In fact, I am married to someone who is not a typical foodie at all thus I am now in the process of converting him to become one. Lately, he starts putting into practice how to enjoy eating gastronomic food. And I put my hope high wishing that someday he will turn into a real foodie, so that we have a culinary tour around the world without worrying that someone won’t benefit of it. I am not claiming myself as a professional foodie, other than just an amateur who simply has an ardent interest in food. I always become very enthusiastic when talking about food. I enjoy cooking and consuming food (and wine).

Not everyone is keen on traveling due to various reasons, including the time and money spent on the vacation trip. On the contrary, I greatly enjoy traveling for the opportunities to explore the world, to taste local food, to meet new people, to experience and to learn other cultures, and so on. Most importantly, traveling helps us explore and discover our hidden qualities like determination and leadership, as modern life tends to minimize our requirements to employ them. Ironically, we travel the globe with the purpose of discovering what we have always owned within us. Among all the places that I have visited before, Bora Bora is my most favorite destination, which is officially rated as one of the world’s most beautiful blue lagoons. I highly recommend this place for those who love beach. And finally as one of my next objectives, I intend to go backpacking with my husband, exploring Eastern and Western Europe.

O yeah, I should mention previously that I grew up in Indonesia. Some of you may ask, “ Where on the earth is Indonesia ?” but wait, now I have a question for you, “Do you know where Bali is?”. I am pretty sure that most of you know this place but maybe you don’t know that Bali is a part of Indonesia. Yeah it occurred quite often to me when people asked me where I am from. Apparently they know about Bali, but not about Indonesia. Even some of them think that Bali is a country.
