Traveljunkieindonesia.com – Experiencing new things and having shifts in perspective. This is probably why I travel so much. Balance is also important. So as much as I love music and movies, I need my walks and rides through nature. My friends and locals are my family so quality time, communicating and spending time with them is important to me.

Once upon a time on an island of spices. I had a really wonderful, simple, but meaningful day. I’ve been in Tobelo, North Halmahera for Congress of the Indigenous Peoples of the Archipelago.

Free Download @Bekabuluh Novel

Traveljunkieindonesia.com – This novel was published in 2009 by Pink Ink, after getting rejected by a much more established Indonesian publishing company. Actually, the latter had agreed to publish it, on the condition that I’d let them edit out some vulgar parts. I said no. The book had taken me about four years to research and write, and I’m too proud of it to let anyone make any changes.

Four years later, the company that actually went on to publish this piece of fiction hasn’t paid me a penny. And since the publication law in this country is too messed up, I don’t feel like doing anything about it. I don’t care. I just want readers. As many of them as possible. And this blog seems like a perfect medium to get them.
