hey everyone!

My name is Airin and I am from the most beautiful country in the whole wide world, Indonesia, which consists of 17,508 islands, about 6,000 of which are inhabited.
I stay in Jakarta, its dynamic capital city. Try our Bajaj and Busway when you got the chance to come here. For people living in Jakarta, it is the weather that they are mostly complain about. It could be very hot from day to night and there are some times it keeps on raining for days. What i love most from Jakarta? The food. You can find almost anything here from anywhere. ANYTHING! Traditional ones are my favorite : gado-gado, gorengan, rendang, nasi kuning, nasi liwet, pecel, soto!, i could write pages and pages about food :p

More about myself is i love green, butterflies, coffee, ice cream, and i love traveling. My family also like traveling, not as much as i do though. We travel the world together every time we got the chance to do so. I never do it the backpackers' way, cause my parents think that it's not really recommended for me who's just turning 18 last week. So even though i DO really want to go backpacking, i could wait just for another couple of years while im collecting some money. Most of the times i took a tour from the traveling agency so everything has been arranged by them. But last holiday we planned everything by ourselves with the help of some relatives living in the cities we visited.

Later on i will post the countries and cities i have visited up until now. My next destination is New York!, or Japan!. Japan is not too far to my hometown, but i wanna go meet Alexa Chung. She's my role model in fashion!! This would be another trip with my family i supposed. My brother is dying to eat Ramen in Tokyo cause we havent find any Ramen house here that serve better Ramen than they have in Tokyo. But if any of you know where to find a good ramen house in Jakarta, i would really love to know that! :)

Now that i've watched UP (it's a good movie by the way), i have a new goal in my life. I have to try that bungee jumping from the waterfall at least once. Must be exhilarating when u jumped off the waterfall and you could hear the sound of the water just right beside your ears. Woot!

I am studying communications in one of the best place with the best lecturers, London School of Public Relations Jakarta. I am a freshman and really excited with my new campus life! Hope it gets more and more exciting :)

So, now that you know me better, just follow this blog or leave a comment, or you can just simply continue reading my blog! Wow how easy is that! A big and loving thanks to you. Cheers!
