So wikipedia said that Salatiga is a city in Central JavaIndonesia and located between the cities of Semarang and Surakarta. It sits at the foot of Mount Merbabu(3,142 m) and Mount Telomoyo, and has a relatively cool climate due to its elevated position.

Got it? Okay let's continue.

First day back to my hometown, I went to Satya Wacana University or famous as UKSW (Universities Satya Wacana). Basically, my highschool was on the same location as the uni and my mom teaches at the uni so yeah I have a tiny little small feeling for this place :p



The path way is so green! Everyday after school I used to walk here.



emm.. This is called Tahu Aci. I usually ate this after school back then. You can buy this for only 5k :)  cheap right? compare with what people sell at the Capital City. 

Then, my dad took me to the rubber plantation, sounds cool huh? Well this "kebun karet" I don't know where exactly the location is *I bet you guys know more about it* was a famous location for any kinds of photoshoot. 




So far, these are the photos from Salatiga that I've uploaded on my instagram. I'll write more as soon as I post other Salatiga's photos on my instagram.

Day 1 - Peace

My friend suggest me to post my photos daily. So I decided to make my own challenge. It's like an instagram 7 days challenge  but I'll post it on my blog. So here's DAY 1  Peace, is a condition where everyone dreams of. I found my peace in nature. Where the oceans are deep and blue, where the skies are blue and full of fluffy clouds, where the grass are green and the flowers are blooming, where the birds chrip by, and where the wind blows gently, and even where the rocks got different colour and texture! ❤️ (at some local beach, Indonesia)

26th May 2017

Ashes of you may be flowing in the ocean, but not the memories and the love we share.  Heaven and earth seems far away,  but not when I have Him who took care of you, here in my heart.  Heart broken, indeed. Not too long.  Since I shall path my own way, a long bumpy way,  till we meet again, mom ❤️ cheers, albertatheofila

It's Time

I’m walking. Green grasses, red and yellow flowers all around my feet. They all bend as I walk. Oh wait, did you see that? In front of you. Yes there. Can you see two birds flying? The color? Oh, blue. Greenish wings I suppose. Don’t they look adorable? I’m walking. Tall trees, blue sky, a little rabbit hopped. I opened my eyes. All disappeared. I’m back in the world where we are surrounded by buildings, no birds flying, no rabbits hopping. I look to the window, a huge sculpture of a tree greets my view. It was made of metal, a metal tree. The mayor said that the metal tree was our city main attraction. I stare back at the book on my lap, the book I was reading before. No title, just a plain book with a brown   cover that makes you want to touch it texture over and over. It’s my great grandmother’s.Yes it’s a book, made of paper. I start reading. The clock strikes at 6. It’s time. -ats.
