My First Indonesia Trip


No ulam, only krupuk. Indonesians love eating crunchy side dish. It tastes like fish cracker but less salty.

It was a great blessing to travel for the first time in Indonesia with Salyn, Bulahan and Koswardi family (my churchmates). I did not bring DSLR this time instead I only used my ever faithful Blackberry phone to take some pictures of people, places and things remarkable in this trip.

Most of the photos are taken in Bandung, a place west side of Jakarta where we visited the family of our Indonesian churchmate Kuya Deni and of course side trip to shopping outlets and enjoy their hot! hot! food offers. Bandung is known for its branded shopping outlets like Zara, Forever21, M&S and Guess. I didn't shop a lot but I took many pictures haha.

Though we only stayed for few days and saw limited places in Jakarta and in Bandung, I'd say that Indonesia is no different from Manila in terms of weather, scenery and food (except for too much chili and no pork in the menu).

If ever I'll travel again to Indonesia, my wish is to try Bali. Makasi (thank you) Lord for this Indonesia Trip!
