FAQ - GENERAL

Travelling for me is an adventure where I fill my life with new experience, challenging activities and new friends everywhere I go.

What makes me want to travel is because I want to enjoy my Home, my world God created for us. I want to be free to experience so I have story of my life. I want to feel my book with all stories about people, culture, adventurous journey and beautiful creation God and human has made.

I like culinary, sports, people, histories, and moments. But What I like the most is meeting new people and local living traveling. I spend my time doing daily activities like the local and visit the destinations in local way as well.

The most unforgettable travelling moments for me is when I was in Sulawesi togean.

That place makes me feel like home. The people, the activities when I was there.

When I arrived at that place after spending 4 hours on the boat, I was welcomed like somebody just got back to home, enjoying sunset with coconut water and had conversation together with the local. I can do whatever I want to do, laid on the beach, swam and had a fresh seafood for dinner. Go Diving and all I did was Eat Sleep Dive. I also went to Pulau papan and spent time with the local kids. That is priceless!

  1. Missing early morning flights
  2. Unorganized trip so wasting time and money.

My perspective of getting lost is when I go to somewhere that i really not familiar with and nobody will bother me of my routine activity, make a new friend, tried everything new for me and find my own path to enjoy the new place.

(example: good preparation, just have fun, etc)

I think how should people enjoy their trip is by being Flexible. Good preparation is good but we have to be flexible with every condition could be happened and enjoy it.

The important values I can gain after travelling is I respect this world, I love the Creator and His Creations.

The world I am talking about is the nature, the people. We are diverse, we are family, and I want to do something better for this world.

What do you feel?

The emotion I feel when I am traveling is extremely happy and amazed.

I feel inspired and I want to discover more and I want to preserve God Creations because everyone deserved to enjoy it .
