CURRENT MISSION

Learn different cultures from its best

ABOUT ME

Well, my experience as an exchange student has changed the way I see this beautiful world. It gave me a chance to see the world in wider perspective and it is surely broaden my mind.

So, eventually, it has made me to become more curious about anything. I want to learn many things and I like to learn new things. When it comes to the cultural things, I really would like to learn from its "best", which is the natives of my destination countries. I really want to live and experience the "real" life of the people in my destination country.

PHILOSOPHY

LIVE CURIOUS. It is actually a tagline by NGC on one of its advertisement, but I do share the same philosophy as NGC does. When you want to know more, you are alive.

Interests

Jazz : I've been listening to this genre since I was in elementary school. Thanks to Pat Metheny's Third Wind. That song has made me fell in love with jazz music. Since then, I just started to listen to jazz 24/7. Thus, I also regularly come to the jazz events in my country. Currently, I have a project at my university to "educate" the member of university's jazz club.

Soccer : I play as a goalkeeper since I was in kindergarten. I have won several soccer competition during my high school time and was chosen as the best player on one of the tournament I played. Manchester United is my favorite team, while Peter Schmeichel is my favorite goalie.

Photography : took the basic photography class in 2007, Kafin Noe'man was appointed to become Java Jazz Festival (the biggest Jazz Festival in Indonesia) in 2009 and 2010. Beside the stage photography, I also like to photograph an architectural objects, both interior and exterior.

Art and Design : I was born and raised by a family that has strong art and design cultures. So, these to things run in my blood. I am pretty good on doing visual design. And I often get asked by my friends to help them to design things they need.
