Another one was my British friend, actually i'm just accompanied him around the city for about 2 days, we went to many places at Bandung.
On Sept 2015 i did solo Travelling from Malaysia and Cambodia for 9 days. The best experience i had so far. It's really a good trip to challenge myself. I did all the preparations, and the first time being hosted by somebody and meet with other CS in the other country.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen mostly to any relaxing and indie music. Prefer not too loud music.
i really like watching movies, but i hate if i had to watch ghost or thriller movie. I'd rather watch Drama, Action movie, inspiring movie.

Well, i read many books, i loved to read books, in order to widen up my mind, i had to read many kinds of books, therefore i read anthing, but at least it has to have some illustration.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On March 2014, i got involved into Habitat for humanity program called Global Village. It was located at Jambudipa Village, Bandung, West Java. I acted as a volunteer on this program, there were team from Japan, Tama University Fujisawa city, Yokohama. They consist of 10 university student and 1 professor called Zion. They named themselves Zion’s club.
as a volunteer i acted as interpreter for Japan students and local carpenters, i also acted as the host for Japan students so i had to keep all the works divided evenly, i also acted as the backup worker in case the students were tired so i should substituted them.
I have to say this 7 days were really awesome experience for me, because i got to know people from other countries, of course we made friends, i learned many things about construction on site from the carpenters, i practiced my english proficiency, i also learned about japanese language, and still many positives things about this experience.

The interaction between the students, volunteers, staff, and community were the most integral part, what we can get from this experience is that the satisfied feeling about helping people. There’s something that money can’t but with. The bonds that created between the volunteer, student with the community is really strong.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook, i love to cook whenever i had time, but i'm not skilled enough, but i can quarantee my dish is delicious enough, it's home made
Oh, maybe we can Share our Culture, our Language, I'll love to share ...
