"Hi Titi,  i need to stay in Jakarta for 3 nights, can i stay in your place again?  i'll go to Jakarta with my boyfriend, if it possible can we stay in your place or can you help me to find place for backpackers like us, 555+ -anne-" Last week i received that email from my friend Anne, actually i can share my room with Anne but for her BF i can't share my room. So, i try to find a place near my place. After office hour, i seek a place for Anne and her BF, and i found an orange building look like hostel, Lucky me! that's place is a place for backpackers (Oh My God! i just know near my place there's rooms for backpackers to stay). The name of an orange building is Kamar-Kamar. Kamar-Kamar meaning "rooms" in English, so Kamar-Kamar For Backpackers is rooms for backpackers to stay. Ok, this is my opinion for kamar-kamar: The building is pretty good, clean, comfortable and also CHEAP! it's very suitable for backpackers to stay. Kamar-...

Stroopwafels

The traditional method of enjoying the stroopwafel is to place it over a hot cup of tea or coffee, which heats the caramel and the caramel will melted or you can heat use microwave.. when the caramel melted, the taste is really good! Delicious! In Indonesia, the price of stroopwafels a bit expensive, IDR 15,000 for one piece in Starbucks (FYI, Lissete bought it in Netherlands €1.5 for 10 pieces).

Dalam Doaku

  dalam doaku subuh ini kau menjelma langit yang semalaman tak memejamkan mata, yang meluas bening siap menerima cahaya pertama, yang melengkung hening karena akan menerima suara-suara ketika matahari mengambang tenang di atas kepala, dalam doaku kau menjelma pucuk-pucuk cemara yang hijau senantiasa, yang tak henti-hentinya mengajukan pertanyaan muskil kepada angin yang mendesau entah dari mana dalam doaku sore ini kau menjelma seekor burung gereja yang mengibas-ngibaskan bulunya dalam gerimis, yang hinggap di ranting dan menggugurkan bulu-bulu bunga jambu, yang tiba-tiba gelisah dan terbang lalu hinggap di dahan pohon mangga itu maghrib ini di dalam doaku kau menjelma angin yang turun sangat pelahan dari nun di sana, bersijingkat di jalan kecil itu, menyusup di celah-celah jendela dan pintu, dan menyentuh-nyentuhkan pipi dan bibirnya di rambut, dahi, dan bulu-bulu mataku dalam doa malamku kau menjelma denyut jantungku, yang de...

 Tommy, Fajar Pratomo.. teman laki-laki pertama di kantor yang jadi akrab gara2 sesama penyuka Running Man :) “Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes..." Good luck Tom S2 nya di Tilburg University :)  Love,  Titi
