privet and welcome to my “home”
which is mostly speaking about ukirsari et nicholas’ travels.
(c) ukirsari 2011 at ladakh range
i am a journalist and working for National Geographic Traveler Indonesia. in my days-off, i love to go backpacking as a solo backpacker since it’s the best way to understand myself, create my ideas, plans and do as best as i can and became an admiral for myself. but of course, whenever it’s possible there’s nothing more great moments to be spent with my beloved nicholas. my soul mate and my only best travel mate to whom i always cherish for all we had done in travels and in our life.
this blog contents mostly about my travel journals and destinations i had been done on my own and with my beloved one. some of them already published in magazine where i am work for and kindly notice that i love to go travel therefore not all of them are under assignments. i do the opposite with personal expenses. and another i already wrote within my travel diary in a virtual travel communities based in united states of america, where i already joined about 10 years ago.
here, i write my blog in my mother tongue, sanskrit, javanese, english, tagalog and bit of russkiyazyk, portuguese and ladakhi … since i love to learn foreign languages. i named it as ability of “speaking the tongue”, to feel the places in real is to learn and speak just like the locals do and it’s indeed a nice way to build a friendship with a local touch.
please enjoy my blog and feel free to drop a line, with ‘code of honour’: don’t put your garbages in my blog! examples: pharmacy offers, extra ordinary advertising for “what else?” and sour comments about country conditions including days-off dadeedadeeda and why [me] keep on travels, since those are irrelevant.
last but not least, all pictures in this bloggies –including the main picture and header as shown on the top of this blog– are taken by myself and or my beloved nicholas. please do not take and misused them without any prior permission and under all circumstances. read carefully about our acts against piracy, thiefs and misused purposes throughout our materials. thank you, terima kasih, matur nuwun, grazie mile, dobroe spasibo, merci beaucoup, maraming salamat!
weeee … ngenggresnya top tenan ki, ndak kalah sama mas jarwo kuwat. kekekekek …

Mbak Arie, trims ya sharing soal “ditinggalkan orang tua.” – Yah yang namanya blog kadang harus berisikan pergulatan batin seseorang, tidak selalu yang monas manis saja kan, hehehe. Dan sekali lagi terimakasih soal Raja Lombok si Mimbar itu, bikin kepingin bangga deh. Salam.

sama-sama, pak mimbar. saya selalu trenyuh dengan hal-hal yang “kecil” tetapi besaaaaar sekali saat singgah di hati.
benar, nggak boleh “disetel” monas-manis tapi apa adanya, sesuai dengan fungsi weblog bagi kita, yaitu … paperless diary, iya ‘kan?
dan soal raja lombok itu, hehehe … ingatan saya selalu nambah dengan “dukunnya bule” … peternak sukses gurame mendadak dukun
