LIFE'S GOAL: WINTER IN JAPAN!!

Jalan- jalan ke Jepang itu memang menyenangkan banget! apalagi kalo musim dingin! banyak banget makanan hangat yang super enak dan tempat permandian air panas pun jadi tempat favorit yang tentunya gak boleh dilewatkan!

nah ini dia, perjalanan impianku ke Jepang!

HARI PERTAMA:

terbang dari Bandara Soetta, CGK pada pagi hari menggunakan ANA Air via Tokyo lalu mendarat saat malam di Toyama Airport lalu langsung ke Hotel Prime Toyama dan beristirahat.

HARI KEDUA
saatnya berjalan-jalaaaaaannnn YEAYYYYYYYY!! Toyama sebenernya bukan kota yang sebesar Tokyo, tapi....ga kalah menarik kok. apalagi pas musim dingin.. beberapa orang mungkin ingin ke Sapporo ngeliat snow festival apalagi sekarang udah ada tokoh star wars... atau mungkin ke Osaka ngeliat light festival.. yah, itu mah pasti rame sama orang yaa.. dan sebagai seseorang yang ga suka tempat crowded, I'd prefer Toyama Folk Village for Winter! ^^

so cool, right? :')

setelah menikmati pemandangan yang "a-must-see" banget, let's continue to NAGANO ^^ perjalanan ke Nagano bisa ditempuh dengan kereta dalam waktu 2 jam 50 menit (bukan shinkasen yaa) dari Toyama lalu transit di Naoetsu lalu lanjut ke Nagano! biaya untuk kereta kira- kira 620 - 680 ribu rupiah ^^ nah setelah sampai di Nagano, just go to a local restauant to taste the wonderful soba soup tepatnya di Yawataya Isogoro :D dan let's take a rest in Zenkō-ji Kyoujuin.

HARI KETIGA
visit Zenkō-ji Temple yang terkenal dengan Hibutsu nya atau its Hidden Buddha yang di tampilkan secara public setiap 6 tahun sekali.

Zenkō-ji Temple

...aaand after that, we'll move to Shinano Art Museum! nothing's better than visiting an art museum in winter. especially in JAPAN!! it's a must-to-do thing (at least for me ^^) , setelah dari museum jangan lupa untuk mencicipi jajanan ala jepang namanya adalaaaaahhhh Oyaki atau Japanese Dumpling...TADAAA

Nah setelah puas menikmati Oyaki, saatnya menaiki shinkasen (JR East) menuju GALA YUZAWA!! untuk kesana, kita bisa naik shinkasen dari stasiun Nagano, lalu transit untuk menaiki Joetsu Shinkasen dan akhirnya, ARRIVED at GALA YUZAWA dan hanya membutuhkan waktu kurang dari 2 jam untuk menempuh jarak sejauh lebih dari 200 km! (kalo naikmobil bisa 4 jam) :O
Sesampainya di GALA YUZAWA we can see SNOW SNOW SNOW eeeverywhere! dan yang paling WOW nya lagi, selain dekat dengan stasiun di GALA YUZAWA juga ada resort nya! Ga itu aja, Gala Yuzawa juga lagi adain promo heboohh check out the poster below!!

NAH, itu diaa pilihan paket di GALA YUZAWA, tinggal klik link diatas, pilih paket lalu order, dan you will enjoy the never-ending-pleasure di GALA YUZAWA ini ^^ dan saking kerennya objek ini HIGHLY recommended banget buat turis yang mau merasakan the snowy wonderland ini karena tempatnya yang sangat mudah dijangkau dengan Tokyo Rail Days dari Nagano aja kurang dari 2 jam, kalo dari Tokyo, cuma 77 MENIT! selain promo paket bermain di Snowy Wonderland ini, JP Rail juga mau ngasih promo menggiurkan lho... here you go...

HARI KEEMPAT

SNOW TIMEEEE!! kita bisa main salju di GALA YUZAWA sepuasnyaaa salah satu cara untuk menikmati nya dengan cara menyawa papan ski dan mulai meluncur di hamparan salju nan luas sambil melihat pemandangan tiada duanya~
dan menjelang sore, kegembiraan bermain salju harus berakhir :( tapi tenang ajaa, karna dari Gala Yuzawa Station, kita akan langsung meluncur ke GUNMA! dan ga akan kalah menariknya dari Gala Yuzawa :P oke setelah sampai di Gunma. tepatnya di kota Ōta, kita bisa langsung ke Hotel Pine Hill yang jaraknya dekat dengan stasiun. dan, time to sleep ^^

HARI KELIMA
tidak ada yang lebih menyenagkan selain bangun tidur lalu disambut dengan pemandangan yang menakjubkan, itulah Gunma. Perfektur ini terkenal dengan onsen nya (permandian air panas/hot spring) dan hari ini kita akan mencoba salah satu onsen di Ōta setelah menikmati pemandangan di Daikoin temple dan Kanayama Castle. Daikoin ini merupakan salah satu bangunan tua (dari 1618) dan Kanayama Castle merupakan icon dari kota Ōta ini ^^

Daikoin Temple

Dan akhirnya, setelah berjalan- jalan di kota, sempatkanlah ke Yabuzuka Onsen! Di Onsen ini, terdapat legenda yang menceritakan, salah satu prajurit sembuh ketika berendam di Onsen ini.. Mau coba? :D

okeee, selesai sudah perjalanan hari ini! waktunya kembali ke Hotel, karena besok kita akan ke TOKYOOOO ^^

HARI KEENAM

sebelum meninggalkan Gunma, sebaiknya cicipi dulu jajanan khas Gunma, yaitu Yakimanju! Snack ini merupakan andalan Gunma dan sangat disayangkan jika ke Gunma namun tidak membeli makanan yang satu ini! Juga jangan lupa untuk membeli oleh- ole dari Gunma berupa boneka Gunma-chan, yang merupakan maskot dari prefektur Gunma, maskot ini juga menempati posisi pertama dalam 2014 Yuru Chara Grand Prix lho!

okee, perjalanan ke Tokyo, seperti biasa menggunakan Shinkasen :D Lalu berhenti di Koenji station! saat keluar dari stasiun, kita akan diselimuti oleh dunia belanja! yap, di sekitar stasiun berjejer toko- toko kecil, juga kedai- kedai makanan yang siap untuk dikunjungi. salah satu kedai yang harus dicoba ialah FUKUBEKO. kedai ini sebenarnya seperti restauran dan sangat sangat di rekomendasikan bagi turis yang mnyukai BBQ karena disini, daging- dagingnya sangat empuk dan kita bisa memanggang sendiri daging- dagingnya di meja, soal harga, restoran ini yang terbaik!! kota yang terkenal dengan Awa Odori ini juga memiliki kafe mungil nan lucu namanya Hattiffnatt Cafe. Nah untuk oleh- oleh, bisa banget membeli bubuk Onsen yaitu "PUCHIPURA". Puchipura ini sejenis bubuk mandi atau bath bomb dan harganya cukup terjangkau yaitu 100 yen per piece nya! Boleh juga datang ke toko kecil bernama "MAMEGEN", toko yang sudah berusia lebih dari 130 tahun yang terkenal akan jajanan nya yang memiliki rasa matcha dan wasabi khas Jepang. Salah satu paket yang direkomendasikan ialah set :edo Fuumi" seharga 2.100 yen yang memiliki aneka rasa.

JAVA - BALI OVERLAND TOUR

hayhayahaayyyyy. today i want to tell you about my wonderful overland trip soo, in the middle of march, i went to bali-java with all my classmates and it was totally awesome. how cant?!

FIRST DAY

i woke up at 3 (i actually didnt sleep) and took a bath and went over to my school. and 2 bus were waiting us. after waiting for another-things-which-are-not-useful,we finally departed from our lovely hideous school (lol) to go to the God’s island, Bali. *yeay*
we arrived there on the next day and as you read, yes. we slept in the bus on our way to Bali. interesting isnt it? and as you know we went there by bus. yes, we crossed the sea to bali by a ferry. and it was terribly cool.

SECOND DAY

CROSSING TIMEEEEE!!! the ferry is waiting for us. (and the bus actually). we went into the ferry and we just came out from the bus and go to the deck to see the beautiful scenery and yes, it’s so beautifully gorgeous.

after we crossed the the strait, yeah. we finally arrived in BALI. it’s dark already and we continue our trip to the hotel and we finally arrived at the hotel at 8 p.m and had a dinner immediately. after that, we went in to find our room. my room is 305 which is the best room ever. i mean, it’s not really small, pretty cool and it’s not too far because it’s located in the middle of the corridor. so i liked it so much.

THIRD DAY

we started our trip to GALUH. it is a souvenir shop and it has a traditional balinese house inside. we went there guided by balinese people and my guide was Bli Agus (Bli means Mr.). he told us about Balinese house in general and about Barong dance which is really awesome. after seeing such a good stuff in Galuh, we went to another section to watch Barong dance. and unluckily, there were another students and they will watch Barong dance too. well, it was actually great tht we met them, but i thought it was too crowd. having 3 different schools with us and we were like, “oh hello there” but they were like “hi, but i dont care” and yeah. i didn’t like that one. after watching a beautiful attraction, we continued our trip to go to…..i forgot. oh, we went to KINTAMANI HILLS for lunch! and it was soooo amazing.

see? told you so. we had a spooky lunch here but it was great. after lunch, we were allowed to take some pics and then the rain ruined it all. and then we got into the bus and continued to Tirta Empul Temple. here, in tirta empul, you’ll find 13 little waterfall, it’s not a waterfall actually, it looked like…a stream. buit not like a stream, like a shower. lets just say it was looked like a shower. you’re not allowed to got into this temple if you’re on your period, or your one of your relaitive was dead for about 2 weeks ago, or if you had a 3months baby. i don’t know the exact reason, but as i heard, Bali, as you know is a God’s island so its place is full of spirit and Gods who will protect and stay in that place. and temples, as you know, are God’s house and we have to be clean to get into this kind of place.

so, that was the “shower” i said before. at least it looked like a shower.
you were allowed to washed your hair, face and drink the water. if you washed your face 3 times, washed your hair once and drink it 3 times, you’ll probably get the youth essence but not directly after you finished the rituals. i drank it 3 times and it was so fresh. and tasted really good.

after having such an awesome and fresh experience, we continued our trip to Sukowati public market and it was soooooo crowded. many sellers forced the visitors to buy some souvenirs from their shop. they forced too much (i thought so). so, if you want to go to Bali, you have to be careful. just like in Kintamani, there were some forcing sellers. they’ll come to you and offering their stuff and they’ll force you to buy it with kindness. they’ll give you some great offers. but once you were asked and offered, they’ll follow you. i mean, if you left they’ll keep forcing you, following wherever you go (but still in that place). so yeah, i explained it too much lol.

i bought 3 clothes as souvenirs and it was pretty cheap. lol. you can get a tee for only $2. such an amazing place to shop. haha.
aaaand then, we went over to another place to watch Kecak Dance. it was pretty cool. and i met a girl from california named Amy, and she’s absolutely beautiful.

that was kecak dance looked like. i enjoyed it.

FOURTH DAY

BEACH TIMEEEE! we started this day with watching the sunrise in Sanur beach.

it was a beautiful morning. and we continued it to Bali Monument

this is us!!

it was soooooo hot. the heat was like up to 99 degree celcius. and after that, we headed to Garuda Wisnu Kencana, a place full of amazing huge statues and cliff and yeah, such an amazing place to take pictures.

see? so beautiful right?

aaaand FINALLY, we gotta see the precious sunset in KUTA BEACH.

unspeakably beautiful. i was satisfied with that. i missed it too much :(

and after seeing such a beautiful scene, we went to KRISNA, the most popular souvenir shop in Bali and we also had a dinner here. and then we headed back to our hotel. and this what i bought in Bali

i bought too many things for my family and friends and for myself of course. i also bought a milk pie it’s balinese traditional food and they were so damn delicious. i bought 5 or 6 pack because i loved it sooo much!!

it was our last night in Bali and everyone ran over the corridor because we had to do our task. the tasks is to find out the information about the tourist objects we have visited in Bali and per group had 6 people in it and yeah, we did it with too much laughs and jokes. why not? it was our last night in bali and we weren’t sleepy enough and we actually didn’t want this end quickly. we spent that night with such a delightful face and we wouldn’t be able to forget that night.

FIFTH DAY

this is our last day in Bali. everyone has their things packed up and they were too lazy i saw it on their face while they were having breakfast. not because we had a sleepless night. but because we wouldn’t leave Bali and we wanted more funs here. but what can we do then?

we started our last day with a visit to SANGEH. it was a little village with many monkeys. a legend said those monkeys were kingdom’s soldiers. and if one of the monkeys got up to you without you forcing it, it means you’ll get a luckiness.

but unfortunately, i didn’t go into the forest because i was on my period. (on-period girls are not allowed to get into the forest). so i stayed in the car park and walked around the park. but you can still see the monkeys.

after our visit to sangeh, we went to Bedugul Lake for lunch. we had a pretty amazing lunch view.

and after that, we continued our trip to Tanah Lot. and this place is SO DAMN AMAZING.

and Tanah Lot was the last place we visit in Bali and after that we headed to Java island and forced ourselves to say good bye to Bali. and just like the first day, yes. we slept on our way to Java island. and we crossed the strait at midnight and we were sooooo TIRED x_x

SIXTH DAY

WELCOME BACK TO JAVA!! we were in Blitar and we’ll visit the most insiprational person’s graveyard, Mr. SOEKARNO! Indonesia’s first president!

beautiful right?

at night, we finally arrived at Ros-in hotel, a four star hotel in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. it was really calm and relax and we enjoyed our time there spent the night with resting from such a long tired trip.

SEVENTH DAY

it’s not over yet!! LOL we went to Prambanan Temples in the morning and yeah, as you know it was really adorable in the morning. and continued to the Yogya’s Keraton (such a palace, a javanese palace). and after that we went shopping to Malioboro street and after shopping we headed back to the hotel for Table Manner program.

the hotel.

after finished the program, well it was midnight already and someone’s head just got hit so he had to go to hospital accompanied by some teachers which means we have a freedom here in the hotel. so played all night long and slept for 2-3 hours only.

EIGHTH DAY a.k.a THE LAST DAY

IT WAS OUR LAST DAY AND WE WOULDN’T GO BACK QUICKLY. we had breakfast in the hotel and after having breakfast, we went to Borobudur Temple and took some pictures.

and after lunch we continued our way back home and we finally arrived at school at midnight and then go back to each house with a tired face and sleepy head and yeah, as you know. a sad heart.
