Homey Casa Battló, Barcelona, Spain

"What is that, maman?" asked Bo, pointing to the façade outside of the famous apartment redesigned by Gaudi. Those windows are indeed extraordinary. "It looks like bones! Like fish bones!" exclaimed Bo.  "You're right! Those windows remind me of fish bones," my hubby said. That morning, we were stepping into out-of-this-world architecture situated in one elegant corner of Barcelona, Spain. And our trip to Gaudi's world has just started. ***   So, it's time for #throwbacktuesday. I kind of miss a few posts for these series due to...

Throwback Tuesday: Sunrise on Punthuk Setumbu

Throwback Tuesday: Sunrise on Punthuk Setumbu "What time is it, ma? My husband sleepily asked me behind his blanket "Time to wake up", I replied with big smile on my face.  And it was only 3 AM in the morning. There was no sound other then the humming air conditioner in our room. "Alright..give me 5 minutes. You get the kids ready" replied my hubby. And there we were..waking up at 3 AM in the cold morning at Magelang, eager to catch sunrise at Punthuk Setumbu. The idea of climbing up the hills at pitch black dawn to see the magnificent...

Throwback Tuesday: Catching Clouds at Nendaz, CH

"Qu'est-ce que c'est, maman?" What's that, Ma? Bo, my almost 4-year-old-son (at that time) asked me. He just heard Alphorn, the famous traditional long trumpet played by a grop of men on top of Nendaz Terrace, overlooking the Bernese, Valais, and Vaud Alps afar. "Do you like it, Bo? That's Alphorn, Bo and we will hear more soon." I smiled to him and walked around the terrace while enjoying the breathtaking view. Mashallah... my Rabb is a maestro indeed. Welcome to Nendaz, Sion, Switzerland. My Throwback Tuesday will take us to Nendaz,...

Throwback Tuesday: Magnificent Batur Lake, Bali, Indonesia

“Who could be so lucky?  Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.” ― Jalaluddin Rumi Throwback Tuesday this week will be taking us back to my beautiful homeland, Indonesia And Batur Lake, Kintamani, Bali, is what I have in mind! Back in 2014, we took a short break to Bali before heading to NYC for our 4-year assignment. Knowing that we would be away from Indonesia for quite sometimes, we really tried to make the best of it. Besides, it's our first time vacationing in Bali as a complete petite family...

Throwback Tuesday: The Wonderful Land of Papua

The Wonderful Land of Papua I have only visited Papua, our Eastern-most island of Indonesia and I instantly fell in love. I went to the wonderful land of Papua back in 2012. It was for work, but we managed to see more of the city. Our dearest friends in Papua took us to one of the highest spot in town and here's the view I enjoyed from the top. Youtefa Bay looks beautiful indeed. The brilliant blue sky is indeed amazing. Including Sentani Lake, near the airport.  Papua has a lot more to offer for sure. As I mentioned...
