First of, thank you to everyone who greeted me last Friday. I am really grateful to be surrounded by so much love and positive vibes from such amazing people not just on January 17, but for all 25 years of my life thus far. ♥︎

For my birthday this year, I was lucky enough to go on a short Indonesian holiday. When people hear Indonesia, people usually think of Bali or Jakarta – I didn’t go to either. I went to Yogyakarta, a city in Java known for its temples. We were there from Friday afternoon to Sunday early evening, leaving roughly only 2 days to spend. Saturday was for the temple run which I’ll be blogging about next, but for now, let me share with you the other half of the vacay- rest and relaxation.

We stayed in Grand Aston, a 5-star hotel we got at a really reasonable price through Agoda. The moment you step in, you’ll be greeted by the yummy spa scent that fills the lobby reminding you that you are definitely on a holiday. It was raining now and then when we were there, but honestly, there was no better place to be cooped up than in our room. Room service, comfy bed, active volcano Mt. Merapi as the view, spa downstairs – what more could I ask for? 🙂

  1. Belated Happy Birthday!

    I was Jogja a while back. Mainly stayed around UGM. If you have a chance, you should totally pass by Sangiran. They should have their museum running by now. Enjoy!
