THE JOURNEY BEGIN : HELLO INDONESIA !
POSTED BY : SUSI RAMILYANA BINTI MAIDEEN ( HM1115A2 )

First of all , hello dear readers ! Hello miss , hello friends . I am Susi Ramilyana Binti Maideen from HM1115A2 . Now , i would like to share my story , my memory , my experiencce and many more during our trip to Mas Joko's island, which is Indonesia . Our trip consists of 3 states in Indonesia including Jakarta , Bandung and Jogjakarta . 

During our first day , we fly to Jakarta from Kota Kinabalu at 5.10 pm on 28th August and reached there almost at 8.00 pm . After settling everything at the airport , then we went to local restaurant there , that is Lembur Kuring , a restaurant that served Sundanese cuisines . Then , we proceed to Bandung and check-in Zodiac Hotel . 

Second day , we had academic talk at Sekolah Tinggi Pariwisata Bandung , had our lunch at local restaurant then went to Tangkuban Perahu . After that , we went for shopping at Jalan Riau . Yeay ! Shopping timeeeeeeeeee ! After shopping , we went for dinner at seafood restaurant . 

Third day , we went to Kartika Sari . It is a shop for us to buy such things as biscuits , breads , ice-cream , chocolate and many more . Nyummehhhhhhhhhh ! After that , shopping time again at Pasar Baru Trade Centre and had our lunch at a restaurant that served Padang's cuisines . After lunch , we proceed to Jogjakarta and reached there almost at 5 in the morning the next day . 

Fourth day , we went to historical place in Jogjakarta such as Sono Budoyo Museum , Sultan Palace , Water Castle , Plaosan Temple , and mostly , Candi Borobudur , which is used to be as one of the seven wonders in the world . 

Fifth day , it was free and easy activity for us but at 6.00 pm , we all gathered at the hotel's lobby and went to the train station for our journey going back to Jakarta . 

Last but not least , our last day , we reached Jakarta almost at 5.00 in the morning and proceed to Masjid Istiqlal and a church that located in front of each other . After that , we went to Batavia Square , Monas Tower , Mangga Dua mall , and other destination that located in Jakarta . We went to the airport to catch up our flight going back to Kota Kinabalu at 7.20 and reached Kota Kinabalu at almost 11 in the night .

Now back to the main reasons for my post , is to identify 2 items that fascinate me most on food , culture , attraction and my own discovery . For food :
Minang's cuisine
Ice cream at Kartika Sari
Batagor : Bakso Tauhu Goreng

For culture , 
Students wearing Batik during the class
Small stall ( foods , drinks ) nearby the roads
Pengamen : Street singer

Meanwhile for attraction , there are so many attraction there :
Tangkuban Perahu  
Plaosan Temple
Candi Borobudur

And for my own discovery , i think that Indonesian are very nice people , they respect each other , have a soft and gentle talking style , very friendly and many positive behaviour in themselves . Second , they really respect their culture . Third , of course , i love shopping there because it is much cheaper there , lower currency and lower price of stuffs !

P/S : Thank you so much to Miss Silverina Anabelle Kibat , other lecturers , fellow friends also the travel agency for such a great moments there , at Indonesia ! That's all from me . Thanks ! XOXO :)
