Summer Holiday - Labuan Bajo day 2 (June 2024)

Today we did island hopping by speedboat.

We were picked up around 6am from our hotel and went to the port to change to speedboat.

It took around 1hour to reach our first destination : Padar island.

After reaching there, we started hiking for about 30 - 45 mins to reach to the summit, which is around 140m above sea level.

It's manageable however the crowds and the sun made challenges and we were rushed by time so some of us couldn't make it to the top.

The view was incredible in every post, it's really picturesque post card.

After that, we continued our journey to Pink beach and it's one of the prettiest beach I ever seen.

The gradient of the colour and clear turquoise water are so perfect and complement each other.

Then, we continued our journey to Komodo National Park island where we observed Komodo dragon and took pictures 4 - 5 metres away from it.

After lunch break in the boat, we continued to little island called Taka Makassar. It's like a beach in the middle of nowhere in the sea. It's so beautiful and we could do snorkling and swimming as the water is crystal clear.

And our last destination is Kanawa island where the kids did snorkling while we took some nice shots and swam along the shore.

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...

A Burger Date

It feels like it's been ages to have a date night with hubby, thus before my parents going back to Indo we decided to have a couple date over burger as I have been craving with Hans I'm Gluck burger. 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.
