"Hi kakak nice to meet you"

-
Saturday 25 Aug 18. I was devastated hiking to Mahameru, no need to tell much about this. I went down alone at 2 pm after I decided in 3400 mdpl not to continue to summit. I felt alone undescrible frustated due to difficult treck less motivated and so on. Short story I arrived Kalimati around 4 pm. Seat & wait on the ground near the interjunction point to camping ground I felt cold afterward. I moved to other camp area in front of seller’s hut (semacam bedeng gitu).  Have chit chat with an old man (bapak yg mau summit malam itu bersama cucu perempuannya). Then I have an idea to rest in the seller’s hut without permission coz he was not there haha after I bought Pop Mie and asked drink water :D So I just lay down and a guy came into the hut, I asked him whether he’s an officer from TNBTS (coz I was worried of my friends who haven’t come back from summit). He said he just a hiker, his name is Michael, a student in ITS. He’s so friendly, we have chit chat, I was so gratefull that he accompanied me. The man with the granddaughter offered me meal but I didn’t accept his offer. He provided hot water and biscuits. Than another guy came in. He wanted to warm himself near the bonfire. His name is .... (cant no his nick name) until he introduced himself to Michael, so his name is Luthfi J  I felt gratefull again coz this time he’s accompanied me after Michael left to prepare the hiking at 9 pm with his friends.  When the old man offered me drink I asked tea but he didnt have, then Luthfi stood up and took a tea bag from his camp, wow I’m so impressed with his kindness & hospitality J We talked much, he said that his father was in jail due to murder case but I didnt asked about that any further. He also talked about using a leave & magic mushroom during camping, haha... we talked much & laughed like an old friends, what a funny experienced :D  After I failed summit I really think that my destiny was to meet this 2 cool guys, that our path accross and I really like them. At that time I really think I should have time for another mountain with this guy. He stayed in Malang, maybe we can have the upcoming journey to Arjuno Welirang & Gunung Kembar ?
We texting sometime and he used to greet me "Hai kakak nice to meet you" :D

Derawan island hopping 16-19 Okt 2014

Kamis, 16 Okt 2014 Rencana berangkat naik taxi jam 03.30 karena ETA jam 05.00 Lion Air JT 626 Terminal 1C. Ternyata taxinya belum datang smp jam 03.45 bener2 pumping adrenalin. Akhirnya jam 03.52 taxi susulan datang dan tiba di Airport Soetta jam 4.25, 5 menit sebelum boarding pass. Untungnya sudah web check in di seat 11 A B C sehingga tidak perlu antri dan hanya minta print boarding pass. Tiba di Juwata Int’t Airport sesuai schedule yaitu jam 8.30 WITA. Peserta tour ada 16 orang. Kami yang pertama keluar gate karena kami tidak membawa bagasi. Kami disambut oleh Ansar TL kami.  Jam 9.30 akhirnya kami berangkat dengan bus kecil langsung ke Rest Ikan Bakar Cianjur untuk makan pagi. Kami memilih menu ikan gurame goreng dabu2 dan ayam bakar, es jeruk kelapa & mix juice tomat & wortel. Setelah makan kira-kira sudah jam 12.00 kami menuju Pelabuhan Tengkayu, karena kota Tarakan kecil jadi kemana-mana juga dekat jaraknya. Tidak lama menunggu, kami langsung menaiki speed boa...

Feel lucky

I fell lucky today. I got Starbucks Venti price 54.000 pay 1 get 3. Tadinya pesen butter cookie latte dan free coffe frappucino.  Ternyata yg latte itu tidak blended spt frappucino jd aku protes pengennya yg diblended frap. Sama masnya dibuatin lg yg diblended. Sambil menduga2 dalam hati, apakah akan dikasih 3 atau yg 1 ditarik lagi. Ternyata memang bener dikasih 3, aduh surprise banget deh. Baik banget masnya, bless you, mas ;) Sometimes I feel really lucky. Wkt wedding day 4 Maret 2000, dress wedding (beli second) yang sudah dipakai saat prewedding photo shoot terlihat kotor. Sambil menangis, ternyata Johnny Danuarta mungkin kasihan lihat aku, akhirnya aku disuruh pilih baju lain. Kebetulan baju yg dipasang di display itu bagus dan sesuai dengan seleraku. Aku pilih aja baju itu yg 100% baru. Ternyata baju baru itu memang beda, warna putihnya beda banget, lebih putih bersih & terang.  Kalau dihargai pasti baju itu lebih mahal drpd baju second yg aku sewa sebelumnya....

Coast to Mountain CTC to MERBABU 3.145 Mdpl via Suwanting Jawa Tengah

Gunung Merbabu 18 Feb 19  Trip ini sangat special karena dilakukan sehari setelah Coast to Coast (CTC) Ultra Night Trail 50K 17 Feb 19. Ide ini timbul dari Fifi, katanya Merbabu sudah dekat di Jogjakarta mari kita kesana setelah CTC. Hhhmm kuat gaya haha galau juga, tapi yah lebih baik dicoba. Aku langsung Reschedule Tiket Air Asia JOG – JKT dan menambah 250rb kalau tidak salah untuk mengganti tanggal pulang.   Sekalian cerita sedikit tentang CTC, aku berangkat pesawat pagi dengan Vita, nginep di hostel dekat pengambilan racepack dan shuttle. Malamnya jam 19 kami sudah harus bersiap ke tempat free shuttle dekat Malioboro menuju Pantai Depok Parangtritis dengan jarak tempuh sekitar 2 jam. Jadi jam 22 kami sudah sampai di Race Venue dan kami harus menunggu beberapa jam lagi sebelum start, dari tahun2 sebelumnya (aku ikut 25K 2017) memang CTC seperti ini, menunggu lama sebelum start tanpa bisa tidur juga walaupun disediakan tempat istirahat sederhana dengan matras di saung2...
