Raja Ampat

Hi my beloved reader(s)! 
Do you have a favorite place? What is your favourite place? Have you ever been to your favorite place?  



My favorite place is Raja Ampat. Unfortunately I've never gone to Raja Ampat. Raja Ampat is located in West Papua Province. For me, Raja Ampat is a mini version of Indonesia archipelago. It consists of  four main islands: Batanta, Misool, Salawati, and Waigeo. If you want to go to Raja Ampat, you have to take a boat from Papua of an airplane from Central Maluku

Raja Ampat means four kings. Local people believe that the name of Raja Ampat archipelago comes from local mythology. They say, there was a woman who found seven magical eggs. Four of the seven magical eggs hatched and became four kings. Their names become the name of four main islands. The other three eggs became  a ghost, a stone, and a woman.    

Raja Ampat is one of the most attractive places in the world. Many tourist, especially divers, have gone to Raja Ampat because of the Raja Ampat underwater beauty. Raja Ampat is a part of Coral Triangle which contains the richest marine biodiversity on earth. There are 1,508 fish species, 537 coral species, and 699 mollusk species.

There are many cottages for tourists. The local government gets much profit from tourism. I have a dream to go to Raja Ampat with my family.  I learn to save some of my pocket money so I can help my parents collecting the fund and hopefully we can go there.

Hi guys! How are you? Good to see you again. I know it's been a few weeks or maybe a month since my last post. Now I'm going to tell you about my recent holiday to Yogyakarta. I went to Yogyakarta with my elder sister by train on December 25th, 2016. We went on Lodaya Malam train. It's our first time for taking a vacation without my parents. Honestly,I prefer to get away with my parents than just with my elder sister because she's so annoying. The ride took about more than 8 hours and she couldn't sit properly for the entire ride. She always complained about how small the seat is. We arrived in Yogyakarta train station at 4 in the morning. After that my uncle and his son picked us up and took us to the hotel so my sister and I could sleep first before hit the road. Our first destination in Yogyakarta was Mangunan Pine Forest. It's located in Dinglo, Yogyakarta https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVX2hv_Awrjx_q4kyftRcf...

My Retreat in Gambung

Hello guys! It's me again. How are you? How was your week? Was it good? I hope you had a great week. I want to tell you about my retreat experience in Gambung with KSK. Retreat is a period of seclusion for the purposes of prayer and meditation. My retreat was scheduled from August 19th to August 21st in Gambung. Gambung is located in Ciwidey. It's 40 km away from Bandung. Most of you probably will ask, what is KSK ? KSK stands for Keluarga Siswa - Siswi Katolik. All of KSK members come from all of public schools or non-catholic private schools in Bandung. In the beginning, I wasn't really sure and happy to join this kind of activity because I thought it's boring. Beside that I couldn't participate in Techno Fest and Makrab with my classmate. But I was wrong. The retreat was so fun. I got many new friends. I learnt how to behave as a cotholic teenager. I also learnt to become a catholic with strong intergrity.
