WW: The Royal Pita Maha Resort, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

 Welcome to The Royal Pita Maha Resort, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

The Royal Pita Maha Resort, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Truly a piece of heaven on earth! And I was super lucky I got a chance to actually come, visit and stay in this fantastic place.  Wonderfully situated in green, plush Ubud, this Tjampoehan resort is a must-visit place indeed when you are around.

Ubud has long been famous for its amazing greeneries, fresh air, and natural landscapes. The Monkey Forest is located here and the UNESCO World Heritage are, Tegalalang rice field is also here. Not to mention numbers of fascinating tropical forests and waterfalls, cool hiking tracks and paddy fields you can freely explore. And I have to admit I fall in love with all those art shops and galleries. I guess that's why Ubud, with its own unique vibe, has fascinated many.

And the arrays of five-star hotels, resorts and villas in Ubud are to die for. One of them is The Royal Pita Maha, the Tjampoehan relaxation resort.

And let me show you this magnificent place through photos before I share more details about it along the way, okay.

I was privilege to stay in one of the deluxe room (more like a villa I believe) with private pool. The room is spacious indeed and the private pool is uber cool! You know how I love swimming and everything to do with the pool and body of water.  The room has its own living room and luxurious bathroom with love-shaped bathtub.

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

October is still here and I continue with breast cancer awareness campaign. 

I am so happy I can join some programs such as webinars and Instagram live to talk and discuss about cancer. I shared stories and experience as well as the importance of self-breast exam and prevention of breast cancer. I also conducted a sharing and caring session with Google Local Guides about the breast cancer and I was so happy many can join us on that virtual meet - up. We discussed a lot about the fight against breast cancer, what we do to survive and prevent, as well as some highlight for supporting breast cancer survivors and warriors.

celebrating Pinktober with Google Local Guides

This week we actually have super long weekend starting from Wednesday till Sunday as we celebrate the birth of  Prophet Muhammad SAW. I was planning to go to Lampung again but we have even more stringent requirements to move between cities during the pandemic now. You have to provide COVID-19 free letter before entering one city or another. If you travel alone, it might not be too problematic. But if you travel as family, the test fee can be enormous so we have to consider that as well.

Besides, my low back pain is kicking after my trip to Bali (which is packed with so many 'stair master' sessions in Ubud) and this time is really messy. I really have to take Advil just to ease the pain. I have been doing a lot of Yoga to work it out and visiting my doctor as well. It gets better each day but it's there. I might need to continue my therapy then. Well, on a bright side, it's good that I am 'forced' to do the exercise and yoga on daily basis. Wish me luck!

And now, let's party on this Wonderful Wednesday with My Purple World, Oh My Heartsie Girls and Friends

WW: Tegenungan Waterfall, Ubud, Indonesia

Welcome to Tegenungan Waterfall, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Welcome back to Ubud, Bali. 

Although I didn't really have much time while visiting Bali recently, I visited one of the waterfalls near our hotel. Tegenungan Waterfall in Ubud, Gianyar Regency is one of the many waterfalls doted in this beautiful area. We took our rented car to Sukawati Village, not far from the famous Sukawati market, the famous arts and crafts center around the area.

The entrance ticket is only 20K Rupiah for local here in Tegenungan waterfall. I don't see the information for the foreign tourists somehow but I guess the officer will tell you the price for that. We will have to take steps to go down to get to the waterfall (and up again to go back to the parking lot) and it's quite far, at least for me. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes and clothes.

The ticket booth

Along the path, you will see some Instagramable spots and best view of the waterfall from above. They have the bird nest, love frame,  bench, vista point and more.

Down near the waterfall you will Pura or the temple as well as holy spring and swimming pool. I love the fact that the water is so clean and cool. Perfect for Bali humid weather.

When you go near the waterfall, you can see some small stone structures. The current is quite strong, at least when we visited this place. Perhaps because it's in the rainy season.

Check out some more photos I took during my visit here.

lovely bird nest we have here

the local Pura or temple

I love it.. and it's not that crowded at all

So, what do you think about Tegenungan Waterfall ? It's a lovely place indeed.

Will you visit this lovely waterfall? Which one do you think will be your favorite spot here?

Celebrating PINKTOBER - Sharing and Caring Session about Breast Cancer with Google Local Guides

Celebrating Pinktober - Sharing & Caring session with Google Local Guides 

 

Celebrating Pinktober - Sharing & Caring session with Google Local Guides 

Hi, everyone!

I hope all is well and we can stay safe, happy and healthy wherever you are.

October has been celebrated as Breast Cancer awareness month. 

Cancer. Cancer. Cancer.

Six-letter word that instigate fear to many of us. 

One single word that changes your life forever.

Cancer, particularly breast cancer, has touched people’s lives.  Many of us have seen or ben through life-changing moments due to cancer. Be it breast cancer or any type of cancer, those diagnosed with it, and people surrounding them, will see some major adjustments and 'pause' in life. And cancer knows no boundaries. You can be young or old, educated or not, rich or poor. It can simply be anyone. It can be you, it can be me. And Google  Local Guides are no exceptions.

Whether you or someone you love has cancer, knowing what to expect can help us cope with this challenge and life-changing moments. From sharing information and experience about breast cancer and the fight against it, including the importance of early detection, diagnosis, and treatment options, this session will serve as a ‘sharing & caring’ session for Google Local Guides whose lives have been touched by breast cancer. 

Together we can provide support to those cancer warriors, as well as learn how to take care of ourselves and take necessary actions to prevent and ensure early detection. Furthermore, we can identify health facilities & institutions as well as communities that provide care for and support breast cancer. And more importantly, we can show our support to those who are still fighting it. 

That's why we invite Google Local Guides to Join us on Google Meet on Thursday, October 29th, 2020 at 8 PM UTC + 7 and let’s talk about breast cancer 💖🎀

The Google Meet link for the meeting was also provided (https://meet.google.com/ssz-nozb-jkk )

And we invited our friends to 💖🎀🌸 WEAR PINK 💖🎀🌸. Or anything in PINK 🎀 during the meeting.

As a Google Local Guide, I  @indahnuria, a breast cancer survivor, became the host & shared my personal fight against breast cancer. While our dearest doctor LG @doc_dells shared some valuable insights from medical point of views about breast cancer and . Then our dearest friend  Google Local Guide from India @shreeya added to the voice of her own journey in accompanying her beloved mom battling cancer and gave some highlighting points to always remember.

TOGETHER WE CAN! 

Let’s fight breast cancer!

The meeting run well and we discussed a lot about breast cancer and many interesting aspects about it, starting from the symptoms, the treatments and medication, the psychological impacts and the support of the family as well as people around us.

Breast cancer has long been known as one of the silent killers

I shared stories, photos and video about my struggle  against breast cancer. The struggle from July 2014 as I was first diagnosed with breast cancer and continue fighting till now.

From one little lump that changed my life to the series of treatment I have got to do to eliminate cancer cells from my body. From the consultations to the joy of joining such supportive communities sharing the same passion about fighting breast cancer. From tons of pills I have to take to mind-blowing questions and contemplation I got to do.

Support is one of the immense helps we, cancer patients and survivors, always need. I am super lucky to have my hubby, two wonderful munchkins, family, friends, colleagues and even strangers.

❤️ Stay safe, happy and healthy, everyone ❤️
