Work & Travel :)

Selamat Sore (Good afternoon),

Since there were couple of you who already started missing some new posts, here are the news. J

During the couple of weeks I am here for, I’ve seen an inactive volcano, adjoining lake and a waterfall. And moreover I keep experiencing how it is to be a “Bule” star. J I have already been asked maybe ten times. Last time today – a group of around 15 youngsters asked me to be on a picture with them, than started screaming and finally thanked so gratefully like if I saved so their lives. :-D

But beck to the trips… CIWIDEY (the place with inactive volcano and a lake on the boarders of Bandung) I went to the place already twice – first time with my colleagues to see only the volcano itself. Past volcano, but current sulfur lake…

Whenever you go somewhere with Indonesians, make sure that your camera batteries are full – these guys will never leave the place until 1000 pictures is taken. J

And second time with other trainees from Europe and some other friends. On this trip we also went to the lake in the same area, went to strawberry plantations and tea fields. We also stopped by for a lunch on a really nice place, got coconut milk served in coconut itself, but also roasted chicken also with its head and full legs. :-/

One more beautiful place you can visit on the suburb of the Bandung is waterfall in CIMAHI. Get to a place by motorbike or the “Angkot” (random public transportation), walk down for about 15 minutes and you are staying under the some 100 meters high waterfall. J

And if you want to try even more from Indonesian lifestyle – get there these “Rice bricks” with peanut dip. J

Last for today am going to share how my work is. Quite crazy: original position of international marketing has expanded to a marketing teacher as well. J So me, with my 4 years of university education am teaching 3^rd year university students marketing on one of the most expensive schools in Bandung. J The regular job description is good, but needs a big self control, because most of the tasks and deadlines are not given and I am supposed to create and organize them myself.

That’s it and I’ll post something again in some two weeks…

Enjoy!
