From Nunukan To Break Fasting Together

A week passed quickly. Last Sunday, I was in flight to Tarakan and stayed for a night, there. Monday and Tuesday in Nunukan, and Tuesday afternoon I've been to Tarakan again. Wednesday afternoon, I flew again to Jakarta.

Nunukan is changing. Coastal road is being built from Mambunut (in the east of Nunukan) to Tunon Taka port (in the north). Government office buildings are being built in some places, including library building near alun-alun (open space of city center). Fast changing place needs good development control.

Thursday evening, at Nelly (and Aryo)'s house, ITB'80 broke fasting together. There were 46 guys and gals who attended the event, that 14 were gals. It was the second biggest reunion after our big reunion 2 years ago when commemorating 25 years of ITB'80. It was nice to meet old (and new) friends from different faculties after all this time. Thanks to Nelly and Aryo for the amazing venue and menu. :)

What's Your Travel Profile?

Got the link from blog Things Left Unsaid, I tried to find my own profile. Classified as "Travel Yup", it happened that I "like exotic and adventurous travel in a comfortable way". Hmmm.. it's very me (maksudnya: gue banget..).

And the recommended destinations are:
• Venice, which is always my numero uno dream;
• Amsterdam, been there but I don't remember a thing :( and
• Beirut, which--according to Kahlil Gibran-- was the most beautiful city in the world.
What faraway destinations!
