Temu Kangen Seru di Perayaan HUT ke-12 Kumpulan Emak Blogger

Disclaimer: this is A SUPER LATE POST, so please forgive me for that..

Happy happy birthday, KEB!

Mohon maaf karena setelah lewat beberapa bulan, akhirnya saya bisa share keseruan temu kangen dengan emak - emak blogger keren di perayaan HUT ke-12 Kumpulan Emak Blogger or KEB tercinta. Super duper late post tapi boleh yaaa. It's just too good to pass and I was very happy and excited when this even was conducted.

So...setelah sekian purnama tidak bertemu dengan para emak - emak keren anggota KEB due to a lot of excuses and reasons,-  in the name of kesibukan, pekerjaan dan life with all its ups and down as well as being away from Indonesia, akhirnya saya bisa memastikan untuk hadir di peringatan HUT ke-12 KEB yang diselenggarakan di Perpustakaan Kementerian Pendidikan dan Ristek. Tentunya saya super duper happy


Temu Kangen Seru di Perayaan HUT ke-12 Kumpulan Emak Blogger 


Buat saya, KEB selalu memiliki tempat istimewa di hati, karena inilah rumah perdanaku sebagai blogger. Kalau dipikir -pikir, saya ngga pernah menyangka akan menjadi bagian dari keluarga besar Emak - emak Blogger yang keren dan penuh inspirasi. Berawal dari hobi bercerita yang dituangkan dalam berbagai notes, laman digital di masa itu, seperti Friendster dan Multiply, ternyata terus berlanjut hingga sekarang. Itu dimulai tahun 2008 saat saya berada di Geneva, Swiss, lalu berlanjut pindah ke platform blogger di tahun 2011 dan sampai sekarang lho. Buat saya, konsistensi ini sangat berharga dan juga menunjukkan keseriusan dan kebahagiaan yang saya dapatkan dari blogging. Seru!

So, long story short, saya berangkat dari rumah dengan semangat tinggi menuju venue di Perpustakaan Dikbud di daerah Senayan. Little did I know bahwa pada saat bersamaan sedang ada perayaan ulang tahun NU yang membuat seantero Senayan penuh padat macet merayap LOL. Saya akhirnya berhasil menembus kehebohan jajaran bus yang memadati ruas Sudirman dan datang ke tempat acara walaupun terlambat sekali. 

Untungnya, saya masih sempat mendengar paparan dari 3 pembicara terakhir, sambil diselingi temu kangen dengan banyak teman - teman blogger yang sudah lebih dulu tiba. 

Saat mba Zata Ligouw sharing mengenai personal branding..

Banyak isu menarik yang dibahas dalam sesi kali ini, seperti peran perempuan dalam menciptakan inovasi di ruang digital; akses di ruang digital; langkah menjadi Live Steamer; dan personal branding. Yang jadi pembicara pun keren - keren, ada mak Mira Sahid, Thata Apriatin; Zaitun Hamid dan Zata Ligouw.

Yang pasti, aku super happy karena bisa ketemu para blogger dari aneka kalangan, termasuk teman- teman yang lama malang melintang di dunia blogger, teman - teman yang baru bergabung dan berjumpa belum lama, maupun mereka yang selalu aktif di media sosial. Ada jajaran pengurus KEB saat ini (hugs hugs Makpon Mira, Makpuh Injul, Makketu Rach Alida, Mak Chichie, Mak Chie Myra Anastasia dan lainnya), pengurus KEB dari periode sebelumnya seperti mak Icus Sumarti Saelan, Mak Sari, Mak Vema, plus blogger - blogger yang selalu aktif seperti Mak Rien, Mak Icha, Mak Icus, Mak Irul, Mak Gusti Yeni, Mak April, Mak Alaika, Mak Hani, dan masiiiih banyak lagi. 


Selesai acara talkshow, kita pun lanjut dengan makan siang dan menikmati konsumsi yang telah disiapkan oleh panitia. Sambil makan siang tentu lanjut dengan foto - foto yang, buat saya, tiada henti. Really use my time to reconnect with many of our fellow bloggers. Dan juga ada Bunda Yati. salah satu blogger senior yang menjadi idola dan inspirasi kita semua. Alhamdulillah Bunda Yati masih sehat yaaa dan bisa bergabung dengan kita saat itu.

Ada Mak Irul juga yang sudah datang jauh - jauh dari Jogjakarta. Selama ini, kami banyak ngobrol di Whatsapp group atau berinteraksi di blog saja.
 
bareng Mar Irul sayang..


Once we're done, acara ditutup dengan pengumuman berbagai pemenang, mulai dari pertanyaan terbaik, kostum terbaik, penghargaan dan juga keseruan - keseruan lain, seperti penyerahan token of appreciation for all the sponsors as well resource persons. Alhamdulillah aku mendapat hadiah the best costume yaaay.. lumayan hadiahnya dapat voucher dari Indomaret dan juga point di GetPlus yang bisa dipakai untuk berbelanja juga. 

Cheers.. sukses terus yaa KEB..

All in all, it was a happy and exciting day for me. Being back to Jakarta and reconnecting with all my friends gives me such a warm feeling. I sincerely hope that soon I can come and join more events and activities from KEB. 

All the very best dan sukses selalu ya untuk KEB tercinta. 

bareng Mak Injul dan Makpon Mira..






WW: Pink Ribbon Walk Wellington 2022

 

Hi everyone.

Hope everyone is happy and healthy, wherever you are.

I would like to share the Pink Ribbon Walk 2022  here in Wellington, that happened to take place on November 13th, 2022. You might be wondering why it is not conducted in October as I do have the same question. But looking at the schedule of the walk, it has been conducted in multiple cities and Wellington is scheduled to have it in November.




The walk started and finished in Frank Kitts Park, waterfront area. My son and I joined the 5 KM walk, together with ladies and friends from the Embassy. There is also a 10-KM choice for those who like to go that far. 



For this walk, we bought the ticket which is part of the donation to Breast Cancer Foundation NZ. For early birds, we can get the ticket for NZD 35 per person, while the normal one is NZD 45. I bought the family ticket, which cost NZD 115 for 2 adults and 2 kids. Unfortunately, my hubby was focusing on our moving while my daughter had a study group with her friends for their school project. That's why my son accompanied me and I have 2 other friends joining as well. 

Here are some photos I took during the walk.

Welcome to Pink Ribbon Walk 2022

stay healthy, everyone et cheers!


It was really fun indeed and the fact that we are doing it for the noble cause. This is my first time joining the breast cancer walk, after joining Making Strides against Breast Cancer in NYC for 6 times. I was so overwhelmed by the support of those joining the walk. Around 800 people joining the walk, wrapped in many cute pink items. I sincerely hope it will bring benefits to those affected by breast cancers, be it the patients, family and anyone whose life has been touched by cancer. And to all my Pink Squad, kudos to you all, ladies!



Cheers from Wellington!

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


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

welcoming March in beautiful Wellington

Welcome back and how March is coming! Time really flies indeed and the third month of the year is already here.

I have been focusing on my works as we have many priorities with the new Ambassador for Indonesia in New Zealand. After the credential presentation to the Governor-General of New Zealand, lists of activities have been prepared. We have many on the pipelines in terms of Courtesy Calls, working breakfasts and lunches, festivals and more. Super excited, yet it requires a lot of preparation and collaboration. Well, happy to do them all.

happy me hiking in Putangirua area

Last week has been filled with  outdoor activities here and there. I managed to go to another movie set of Lord of the Rings trilogy, particularly the Return of the King. We visited the Putangirua Pinnacles at the Scenic Reserve. This very spot is the place where the "Path of the Death" where the Army of the Death were marching. I was super excited as this place is indeed very unique, although we have to hike for about 45 minutes. I will share more stories and photos about it. Not far from there, there's Cape Paliser Lighthouse which is beautiful as well.

Il Bar at Bvlgari Resort Bali, Indonesia

almost missing the sunset at Bvlgari Resort, Pecatu, Bali


Hi there...

I am still exploring Bali and super duper excited to have the time to enjoy Bvlgari Resort Bali. 

It was awesome indeed. 

I have been spending so much time in meetings and for sure we all need a break for a while. We got some time to enjoy sunset in Pecatu, the famous cliff area in Bali and that amazing view is one of the reasons why Bvlgari, a world-wide famous jewellery brand, opened their resort here right after the one in Milan and some other lovely cities in the world. 

cheers from Bvlgari Resort, Uluwatu, Bali


I haven't got the chance to stay overnight here but this time, we really enjoy catching the sunset at Il Bar, Bvlgari famous bar.

Wanna see more about Bvlgari Resort, particularly the Il Bar

Check out the photos here and tell me what you think.

enjoying the sunset

Here we ordered some drinks and finger food while enjoying the sunset.

I had Bali Mary, a perfect and healthy combination of raspberries, chilies, and rosemary. Love it! we also had some margarita pizzas, mini combos, and fries.




I took the liberty to take some photos of the surrounding areas as well.

This place is amazingly built over the cliff area in Pecatu, Bali, so you can imagine the hilly parts and textures which make the resort unique and breathtakingly beautiful.

We took the bougie car to go down to the bar from the lobby.




Girls just wanna have fun..

The pool is surely inviting!




And here's the bar.


Welcome to Il Bar






Well, that's a little story about the Il Bar at Bvlgari Resort in Pecatu, Bali.
Will you visit this place if you are around?
