Summer Holiday Bali - Back to nature edition (June 2024)

As Bali is getting overcrowded and traffic jam everywhere and we didn't want to waste our time on the road and visit the places that we had visited before, we decided to visit new place within one route which is

1. Bali Farm House (Singaraja)

It's a newly opened farm house near Bedugul, the temperature is cooling and not many people. We saw many new animals that we never saw it before like Alpaca, Donkey, Big fatty chicken (I don't know the name).

The kids were having fun there feeding Alpaca.








2. Jatiluwih rice terrace

It's a new experience for the kids to see rice terrace where the rice produced. We had a small trekking for 2.5km along the way. It's a beautiful view that we took for granted.






3. Jatiwangi coffee plantation

Nearby, we visited luwak coffee plantation where they explained how luwak coffee made and gave us tasting of infused coffee and tea





4. Desa Coklat Bali

We visited cocoa plantation and factory where they explained how chocolate bar made from the bean until become bar, then we had chocolate dessert where we can taste the cocoa pod and nibs. It's kinda like mangosteen, sweet and sour.





5. Kuta beach

Bali without beach is not completed, thus we spent an hour in the morning to enjoy the breeze and the waves at Kuta beach while watching people learning surfing.

We went there, enjoying the burger and companion of each other and talking about anything, something that we are used to have but no longer anymore after I took a new role in the company. Then, I accompanied him to shop at H&M before heading back home. It's one of the best burgers I ever had since I am in fasting the whole day for a week. The perk of fasting is I could appreciate the food and enjoy it.

Jubilee Year - Year of Hope (2025)

Year of Hope: A Personal Reflection on 2025 The year 2025 has been declared a Jubilee Year, a  Year of Hope  by the Pope—a time for peace, joy, and prosperity. For many, entering a new year brings feelings of happiness and optimism. However, I find myself on a different path, starting the year with anxiety and uncertainty rather than joy and hope. For me, 2025 is a year of the unknown. It marks the first time in four years that I will not hold the title of a working mom. Transitioning from this identity feels daunting and unfamiliar. It is also the year I plan to embark on a new venture: starting a winter rental business. This endeavor excites me but is fraught with challenges. There are countless pieces of the puzzle yet to be solved, and I pray for wisdom and the support of "ordinary angels" to guide me through. This is also a pivotal year for our family. Two of our children will face major exams. While I know the journey matters more than the results, I hope they develop s...

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...
