A man with unexpected decision

Last week, I watched a movie that I've never seen before. I meant that the movie was unexpectable. Yes, the movie I watched was called as "INTO THE WILD". I accidentaly searched on google a traveling movie so I got this movie. This movie isn't just about traveling, but also meaning of family. Family is supposed to be the shelter to the kids. Family is supposed to be a place where kids have some advice from their parents. Parents are supposed to be children's guardian. Parents are supposed to be children's role models.


Kepribadian anak tergantung dari pola asuh orang tua. Cara orang tua mengasuh, menyayangi dan mengasihi. Mereka seharusnya melakukan hal yang benar agar menjadi panutan anaknya. Orang tua harus mengajarkan anaknya hal hal yang akan berguna untuk masa depannya. Orang tua harus mendidik dan merawat anak mereka.

What if Orang tua melakukan hal yang berbeda?
What if Orang tua memberikan dampak buruk terhadap anaknya?
What if Orang tua membiarkan anaknya mengetahui hal-hal yang buruk yang sedang terjadi?

Inilah yang terjadi di film ini. A story of an introvert guy who wants to conquer Alaska. A story of a vulnerable guy who needs a real relationship. A story of  a young man who wants to be concerned.

Abusive relation which he felt benar benar membuat dirinya hancur. Tidak mengerti apa artinya rasa kasih sayang, tidak mengerti apa artinya kekeluargaan. Lebih dari sekedar menaklukan Alaska, Cristopher (baca : nama asli) menginginkan perhatian dan kasih sayang dari orang tuanya. Perhatian yang memang ia tidak dapat semenjak kecil. Perhatian tentang kasih sayang, bukan tentang uang atau segala macamnya. Perhatian yang memberikannya motivasi untuk memiliki kehidupan yang lebih baik.

Terlepas dari gelar yang diraihnya, Cristopher menginginkan arti dari orang tua sesungguhnya. Dia tidak memerlukan uang melainkan kasih sayang.

Itulah hal yang membuatnya kabur dan memutuskan jika alam adalah keluarga sesungguhnya. Keluarga yang dapat memberikan tempat berteduh dan keluarga yang selalu berada dimanapun dia inginkan. Dia pergi meninggalkan semua kemewahan termasuk, mobil kuning tua yang dicintainya. Membakar semua uang dan menanggalkan kamarnya yang nyaman demi bertemu dengan keluarga sesungguhnya.

Menuju ke alam bebas merupakan keinginan yang sudah lama diinginkan olehnya. Bagaimana dengan keluarganya? Mereka mencari Chris yang hilang. People might change when they have lost someone.

Orang tua Chris akhirnya menyadari kesalahan. Chris membutuhkan kasih sayang namun sudah terlambat. Chris sudah pergi bersama angin, mengikuti arah matahari dan menuju ke tempat yang dia impikan. Keluarganya merenung karena kesalahan dan kecerobohan yang mereka buat sendiri.

After few months even few years, Chris was found in the bus. Iya, Chris meninggal di dalam bus dengan memegang perutnya yang sangat kurus. Chris akhirnya meninggal karena kelaparan yang ia alami. Namun, akhinya dia menyadari jika keluarga sesungguhnya harus saling berbagi, bukan saling bergantung. Penderitaan yang ia alami ditulis dalam sebuah buku.


Sesaat sebelum meninggal, Chris, yang pada waktu itu menahan lapar, mengambil sebuah kayu usang. Jari jemarinya mengambil sebuah silet dan menuliskan sebuah kalimat yang seharusnya ia sadari. Kalimat yang bermakna berbeda jika ia mempercayai kehidupan sesungguhnya. Kalimat yang harusnya menghilangkan semua rasa ego dalam dirinya.

" LIFE IS REAL WHEN SHARED"

Chris menyadari kesalahannya namun, keluarga mereka juga harus disalahkan akibat kematiannya.

For parent's advice, you have to protect your children not to let them go. You have to tell them the right way, not the wrong way. You have to make them be happy not be sad. And the most important thing is Kalian, para orang tua, harusnya menyimpan masalah kalian dalam-dalam. Jangan biarkan anak kalian mengetahui masalah yang kalian perdebatkan.

Anak akan merasa terguncang apabila mereka tidak dapat menanggung beban yang tidak bisa mereka pikul. Bermain adalah dunia mereka, Taking parent's burden must be avoided.

8 hidden beaches in Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta.

Do you know that Yogyakarta has secret beach? I guess you don't. All people know about Yogyakarta's beach  is Parang Tritis. In fact, there are 60 hidden beaches located in Yogyakarta, a best place for beach-hopper, right? it's like beach-hopper's paradise. It is located in Distict of Gunung kidul bordered with District of Klaten.

Most of this terittory are hills and limestones mountains which are part of mountainious of sewu. This district is known as a barren area which often has long drought, but it has a uniqueness history including tourism and culinary destination especially beach. Most of beaches are still so quite that people always make a campfire here at night. People who come here are still not as many as on Parang tritis beach. It's because the way to get here is still unreachable.

Here I will give you 8 recommendation beaches that you can visit:

1. Baron Beach
This is a nearest beach after getting through the main gate. It is just 1 km from the main gate. Local tourist are always having a celebration here in every year during holy day. This is a good spot for fishing lovers because there is a mouth of the beach in the edge of the sea. There are Parang Racuk hills with its mountain slopes so people could get some adventure there. Such an exciting place to go.

2. Wedi Ombo beach
Do you want to swim in the safe place? here's the place. You don't have to worry because there is a small natural pool in Wedi Ombo beach. Cluster of rocks line surrounding like a small lagoon. Here you can swim by staring at the sky waiting for sunset come.
Although it is safe, you should be aware of big wave which often wipe you out. It could drag you out of the lagoon and hit the rocks. This place is located in Jepitu village, Distict of girisubo.

3. Wohkudu Beach
It takes 2 hours from Yogyakarta to Wohkudu beach without getting lost hehehehe. It is actually just a small beach (20 -25 m). But, this place has truly awesome scenery. This beach is flanked by two big hills which are also high. A view of white sand and blue sea would be pampering yourself. In one of cliff, there is a cavity like cave. This place is still hard to reach which is good to make a camp here. The way to get this beach is also a bit tough, you have to walk around in the path which is surrounded by thatch in your side.
There is no facility here so you have to keep this beach clean. Bring back your trash, Do not ruin the coral reef and also keep this beach away from the destruction activities. The best time come here in the morning so you can make a camp at Kesirat beach or you can come in the afternoon waiting for sunset.

4. Pantai Gesing
Hidden at the west end of Gunung kidul, this beach is still untouched. 


Besides far away from the city, this beach is also quiet and deserted. There are just local people (fishermen) who want to fish in the sea. A torqouise water and super clean are the finest thing that you can see along this attractive beach.
Due to the fact that this beach is untouched, many restaurants offer seafood with fresh fish and lobster. The price is friendly for traveler. It is caused by this place is still deserted. There are row of restaurants line on the side of the beach which make easy to look for something to eat, or you could make your own food by fishing on the beach. Such a lovely beach !

5. Ngobaran beach
Blue water and sandy white beach are the beauty of natural sea. But, On Ngobaran beach you can also find 4 worship places which represent religious diversity on this beach. It also reminds us of respecting ecah other by letting them worship in the holy place.

 
(travelingyuk.com)

There is a temple with buddha and other ornament which remind us of Tanah Lot, Bali. It was build to celebrate Brawijaya's 5 presence as a descent of Majapahit. There is also a mosque facing south near the coast. 

6. Ngerenehan Beach
Located in the east side of Ngobaran beach. The first impression when you see this beach is a chain of limestone hill. 


In this beach, you don't have to worry about dragged by waves. This beach is flanked by two large coral reefs which make wave can't touch your skin. Known as fishermen's village, you'll see the way they prepare to catch the fish by using boat.  There is a unique tradition that you can see. It is a fish auction. You can attend to this place or maybe you can buy some fresh fish by local fishermen. 

7. Timang beach
Located in 35 km away from south of wonosari. This beach wasn't famous until there is a photographer who took a picture of "cable car" which hang around the beach.

(indonesianparadise.net)
This cable car used to be the only one way to get the "watu pajang island). They went there to catch lobster and shrimp, but now it's been famous destination that people love to visit. Travelers can test their nerve by using this cable car. Although it doesn't use steel rope, this cable car is strong enough to take there. Enjoy Cable car!!

8. Jogan beach
The primary attraction is the waterfall beside this beach. This beach isn't as famous as Siung beach, but the waterfall could be the best reason to walk a few hundred meters from Siung beach.

5 Highest Mountain In Indonesia

A biggest archipelago in the world, thousand of unique places in the whole country, the best place when people want to go away from their routinity. That whole things are wrapped up in one country, "INDONESIA".





Besides beach, most of islands in indonesia became home from the mountainous with an evelation more than 2000 metres above sea level. Either volcano or not, mountain in Indonesia has become favorite destination for hikers. Here's 5 highest mountain in Indonesia that you must hike :



5. Mount Semeru (3676 m)
It is the highest volcano in Java island and still active. In indonesia, Mount Semeru the third highest volcano after Mount Kerinci and Mount Rinjani. The peak of volcano is called as "Mahameru" or abode of god. Mahameru itself means "the great mountain". Located in Malang, this mountain has been known by hikers as a horror mountain because there are many people said they've met "ghost market".



It takes 2 days to get the peak of mount Semeru. Journey starts from Malang bus station then continued by using truck until Ranu pani (the first post). Don't forget to do-checking in Ranu Pani then you can start hiking from there.



4. Mount Rinjani (3726 m)
Located in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. It turns out that Lombok has the second highest volcano in Indonesia. Not only chain of beaches, but also mount rinjani has been known for a long time. in 1995, the biggest eruption was occured here, but tourist still not afraid of that.



3. Mount Kerinci (3805 m)
Located in Jambi, Sumatera. The highest volcano in Indonesia and still active. But the scenery was so epic. That is why this mountain never been uncrowded. Mount kerinci is surrounded by seven mountains which are very beautiful. Then there are Penuh river and Coffe plantation in around mount Kerinci. If you want to hike mount Kerinci, you can reach from Padang, Jambi and bengkulu. But for airplane, I reccomend you to land in Padang because there is an international airport which is called as "Minang Kabau International Airport"


2. Trikora Peak (4750 m)
Also called as wilhemina peak located in West Papua, Indonesia. This mountain lies in the eastern part of Sudirman (nassau) of Maoke Mountain. It is the second highest mountain in Papua and also Indonesia. If you want to hike this mountain, you can take a flight to Jayapura then you can continue by taking local flight from Jayapura to Wamena. After getting Wamena, you go to Balliem valley. From there, you can start trekking to the trikora peak. See the beautiful landscape from up there.



1. Jaya Wijaya Mountain (4884 m)
The highest mountain in Indonesia which is located in Papua. This mountain is still part of Sudirman (nassau). In 1962, Robert phillip temple and friends were the first hikkers in JayaWijaya. Actually, this mountain was closed for tourist because it was not safety in 2005. But, one year later, Hikkers can hike this mountain, but they have to take tourism agency.

Raja Ampat, heaven in the east of Indonesia

Papua is a black pearl. That nick name was given because Papua hides many beautiful places that you haven't ever heard. Located in the east of Indonesia, Papua apparently has a major beauty which is hidden in each of its island, especially "Raja ampat". 


History
Raja Ampat is surrounded by four major island. There are Waigeo, Misool, Batanta, Salawati. Each island has different characterization. According to myth which is in Papua, There was a girl who found seven eggs, but only four of eggs hatched. Each of egg occupied one island which means there are 4 king in 4 island surrounded in Raja Ampat.

History also mentioned that Raja ampat was part of "Sultanate of Tidore" , but the Dutch was invaded. Raja ampat became part of Netherland's invasion territory for temporary.



Main Attractions
Raja ampat is an amazing place. One of those stunning scenery is "Lagoon in wayag". Lagoon is a spectaculary group of big rock islands in the northwest of the region. 



In Raja Ampat. you can also see 540 type of corals, 750 type of fish and 1000 type of mollusc. Based on those facts, 75% of the world's species live there. You can see yourself how beauty this place is. The stunning underwater scenery will hypnotize you because of those things.


How to get there?
You can go there by plane from Jakarta to Sorong, Papua. It may take 6-7 hours then you go to Sorong Harbour. Sorong harbour is the gate to Raja Ampat. Taking Ferry or Speed boat from Sorong Harbour to Raja Ampat.

Actually, there are cheaper way to Raja Ampat, but it takes much time so I reccomend you to take a flight and book it a month before your vacation. The important thing is to avoid "PEAK SEASON" because the ticket will be expensive.

Started from northwest Sumatera, This paradise is located in small active volcanic island. It takes 2 hours by using Ferry from the mainland, Banda Aceh. This place was appeared because the last eruption of the volcano. Although this place is still not too well-known, but this place has more than 20 spots amazing spots for diver.

But,now, Bono wave is the one which is always visited by tourists. This phenomenon are attracted the surfers around the world. Steve king was able to be a conqueror. He broke the record, according to the Guinness world of records, after covering 20 km for 1 hour and 4 minutes. What an amazing wave !!

If you don't like going to beach, you should go to Jambi. Mount kerinci is the highest volcano in Indonesia which is located in Jambi. This place is surrounded by  Kerinci seblat national park and this is home to endangered species such as Sumatra tiger and Sumatra rhinocheros. After reaching the top of mountain, you'll see the beautiful landscape from above.

4. Harau Valley

One of the most beautiful natural scenery in West sumatra. It is located in the road between Pekanbaru and Bukit tinggi. Your journey is surrounded by green rice field which is covered by brown cliffs, canyons and rocks. This is good place to take a selfie. A place where people can live in peace. No sound and still quite. it is also far from the city.

5. Belitung island

This place sounds familiar after laskar pelangi's movie. It turns out that there are many beaches which is surrounded this small island. Beside the fact of falling behind in the education, This place hides many paradise places that you've never seen before. This place is artistic even for you not a profesional photographer.
