About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I used to do couchsurfing "manually" in 1988-1991. In 2010 I was told of this site by a friend. Modern net-work CS encourged me to do my own "classical CS". I will just try to be a satisfying host for those traveling in Indonesia.

ABOUT ME

Here is I am what "I am" is. The older I'm getting, the shorter time I feel to have day to day, and the smaller I see something. As a child I would feel to wait a year just for a day and would see a squirrel in my garden as large as a mature cat. On the other side I feel my head is getting filled up with things I never know when it gets over. So, I see a double linking equal-side triangle where I travel along the both in the opposite directions, one of which has an unknown bottom line, and the other of which has an unrecognized point of the top. If you fill up your life with good things, you will feel greater and greater enthusiasm with heavy steps of authority.

PHILOSOPHY

Your life will live only if you can make it live in someone's life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For the moment I can only host travelers who need it. From now on we may host you in two different towns: Wonosobo and Yogyakarta. I've been running another private English school/course in Yogyakarta, exactly in Parangtritis street Km.11,5, in the village of Mandingserut, Bantul, Yogyakarta. If you like to stay in a countryside, 11 km from the town of Yogyakarta or 20 km before the beach Parangtritis, I think that's the right place to stay, and I welcome you when I'm not back to Wonosobo. In the other side, when I'm in Yogyakarta, you may still stay in Wonosobo.
So far we've met such great people and we believe we will always. If you feel you may not be the one, together we will be!

Interests

Teaching English, fishing, making movies and making friends, painting, singing, telling and making jokes to laugh in tears! Being volunteer for helping people is always a satisfaction! I'd like to say "a new interest" in Gemstone. Yeah, as our people have just gone crazy for stone for accessories, I've been carried away! I love this fun handmake.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love everything as I look at it with my sense of art. Art touches anything in many different ways.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being a volunteer for 6 months in Yogyakarta earthquake in 2006 was the greatest experience of all.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know lots of social aspects to share, way of life, history, especially in Java. Making short documentary movies might be useful for your trip around my hometown, a short amusing movie clip might be a great memory.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tips of your trip. If you take an interest in making short fun movie, why not?
I just wanna try to be a nice host for everyone who travels in Indonesia and plans to see Dieng Plateau. THIS MAY BE IMPORTANT TIPS: IF YOU HAVE 3-4 WEEK TRIP THROUGH JAVA AND SET OUT FROM JAKARTA: JAKARTA(2 DAYS)-BOGOR (2 DAYS)-BANDUNG (3 DAYS)-PANGANDARAN (2 DAYS)-WONOSOBO/DIENG (2 DAYS)-BOROBUDUR (1 DAY)-YOGYAKARTA (3-4 DAYS)-MALANG/BROMO & KAWAH IJEN (4 DAYS)AND BACK TO JAKARTA (2 DAYS). MAKE IT THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND ROUTE IF YOU TRAVEL FROM BALI TOWARDS JAKARTA.
FOR THOSE, WHILE TRAVELING, WHO WANT TO ARRANGE SOCIAL VISIT OR DOING ANY PROJECT OF ANY NGO DEALING WITH ENGLISH LANGUAGE, YOU MAY DO IT IN WONOSOBO, STAY WITH US AND WORK ON IT FOR US IN OUR PRIVATE ENGLISH SCHOOL. IF YOU ARE THE ONE I CAN TRUST, I WILL BE YOUR VISA SPONSOR OF SOCIAL VISIT (POSSIBLY EXTENDED WITHIN 6 MONTHS). This link to a short movie about Dieng I produced myself may inspire you before paying a visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrYDIsBDUCM&feature=youtu.be
AND THE SUN RISE VIEW FROM SIKUNIR HILL PEAK MAY BE OF YOUR INTEREST TOO : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIpugBCaU9U
