Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls, and Friends

How's the week treating you, people? 

About to land in NYC

Mine has been super duper hectic! 
In the course two weeks, I have been traveling to Moscow, Semarang, Solo, and New York City. It was a crazy itinerary, as I was staying in Moscow for 2.5 days, as well as Semarang. As for New York City, I flew through Istanbul (again) and stay in the Big Apple for 2.5 days as well. Meaning, I have spent more time on the air and during transits for the last couple of weeks. As you know, if I take Turkish Airlines, we fly to NYC for about 24 hours, excluding the transit time, which varies from 2 - 12 hours. So you can imagine that we literally spend around 2 days to travel. Well, I survived. But I have to say I won't do that again any time soon LOL.

A brief transit in Istanbul, Turkey

But now, I am happy to be back to Jakarta and be with my family again. 
Nothing beats the morning kisses and hugs from my munchkins and the crazy, mad house as we prepare everything together in the morning or our fight in the evening to decide which restaurant to go to :). 

A short stop at German Fountain, Hippodrome
Well, family is numero uno and they keep me sane regardless of how horrible works can be. 
So, this week I plan to rest and relax with the Frakarsas. What's your plan? 

Meanwhile, join us on Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls, and Friends.

WW: Sam Poo Kong Temple, Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia

The dragon..

Come and join me on my visit to Sam Poo Kong Temple, Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia.


it is indeed a great temple!

Such a historical place and culturally interesting as Semarang is the true melting pot in Indonesia with many Chinese descendants residing since centuries ago.










And I got the chance to wear traditional Chinese costume as well.
It was sooo much fun!








Join us on (almost) Wordless Wednesday and have fun with the link party!

Cheers from Semarang..

Here comes another busy week.
I have been traveling here and there for works and while it's exciting, it's also tiring at some point.

After coming back from Moscow, I have to attend meetings at Semarang and Solo, two beautiful cities in Central Java. I have visited these cities before but it's always nice to be back here again.

Semarang, the capital city of  Central Java Province, has been chosen as the place for the final DiploFest, Diplomacy Festival,held by my ministry. This wonderful city has also been well-known for being a wonderful melting pot, where Chinese descendants and Indonesians have lived together side by side harmoniously.

I visited Sam Poo Kong Temple in Semarang and got the photo session wearing traditional Chinese costume! It was so much fun!

I love this costume, although it's heavy and hot!
