Cold, cough and ranny nose... Winter really does suck!! used to back in Indo when i feel cold i just turn off the aircon, i wish i have the remote. Cold, windy and sometimes rainny.. i really dislike winter. Now i completely understand why those tourist in Bali sits under the sun. i would do exactly the same when i get home.

| long ass flight |
Speaking about home sweet home, as i wrote in previous blog, i did go gome and suprised everyone. i managed not to tell no body but just a friend. i had long direct flight Sydney to Jakarta 8 hours by Garuda. My first visit ever. it was great, felt so good to be home. Nothing to worry as no body expected me. I just showed up infront of the door made everyone suprise, great to see their faces, my family was happy to see me. My mom once said : i want you come back as exactly as when you left. No crazy tattoo, red hair, funky style etc.

| Jambi traditional Wedding |
I went back for my brother's wedding, very first wedding in family. im happy for him. everyone looks the same. those little faces of my little cousin arent little anymore as they all have grown up. this trip is probably the best of all. i found eveything is cheap. so good to make world currency and spend in Rupiah. Those expensive parfumes or make up in the airport once i found it very expensive isnt that expensive anymore. i spent and spent and gave everyone money but the end still so cheap. i went to salon and spa for 5x, i Love it. and i will work harder!
The weather was nice and warm. so good to be able to sit outside with short or just shirt and sandal. i love tropical weather and i miss indo weather. you never know until you lose it. thats so right. i have mever known what is it like without the sun till now. Till im stuck in this cold weather. i want to escape... soon enough im going back. Yes im going home next month for Ramadhan. last year i spent my ramadahn in US with-out family and friends. i dislike it.
Tickets booked, just need to work harder so i can have a good time. this trip will be single backpack without Shea. Jakarta - Jambi - Malaysia - Singapore - Bali - Perth - adelaine - Melbourne - sydney are still ON. im excited just to think about it. Back on the road is always Fun!
Diah sih masih enak tinggal di Sydney ga seberapa dingin, mana dekat pantai lagi. Dari Sydney ke Jkt cuma 8 jam, gw waktu di Ottawa -30 (dark, slushy, windy eughh!) and pulang 24 hours away! Not looking forward to go back to Ottawa! Anyway, good to see you write again. Yes, just text Stu di FB kl mau kesini. See you!
