Indonesia in Motion
From temples to rainforests, from batik to gamelan,
we move as one beating heart.
Motorbikes Outnumber Cars!
Over 120 million motorcycles shape Indonesia’s unique urban flow, unlike anywhere in Europe.
Island-Hopping Daily Routine
With 17,000+ islands, boats and ferries are essential for daily commutes.
24/7 Urban Energy
Cities buzz nonstop — markets, street food, and nightlife keep the streets alive around the clock.
My Hobbies
I enjoy doing many things that keep my mind sharp, my body active, and my heart happy.
Basketball
I'm part of my high school’s core team. Basketball keeps me energized and sharp.
Volleyball
I play as a middle blocker and spiker. It's a role that requires strategy, strength, and quick reflexes.
Swimming
My favorite strokes are breaststroke and freestyle. Swimming keeps me grounded and refreshed.
Coding
For me, coding is a space where logic meets creativity — it's how I build, explore, and express ideas through technology.
Watching Movies
I love action, adventure, thriler, sci-fi, mystery, romance, and rom-coms — basically everything except horror and boring films!
Playing Piano
I practice on an upright piano. Music helps me focus, relax, and express emotions beyond words.
Photography
I enjoy experimenting with bulb mode to create stunning light trail shots, and I love using the panning technique to capture motion creatively. Macro photography is also one of my favorites — revealing the beauty in the smallest details.
Paragliding
Soaring through the air with a paraglider gives me an unmatched feeling of freedom. It's not just a hobby — it's a moment where I feel completely alive and connected to the sky.
...and many more!
From reading to exploring new skills — I'm always curious and eager to learn something new.
