Graffiti. #yogyakarta #streetart
Today, we visited an Islamic boarding house where students live and study. She is the wife of the founder of this particular school. #yogyakarta (at Pesantren Al-Munawir, Krapyak, DIY)
I was interviewed by a local newspaper in Yogyakarta about my Indonesian Arts and Culture Scholarship. Good bahasa practice! Can you spot me in the photo? ☺ #yogyakarta (at FISIP UPN ‘veteran’ Yogyakarta)
Breakfast in the tropics! Pineapple and banana fresh from the markets, lychee yoghurt, and homemade toasted muesli sent over from Jakarta by mum. If only I could find a good coffee to complete the meal! (at Puri Cartenz)
Palace guide. #yogyakarta #kraton (at Komplek Keraton Djogjakarta)

Beautiful old tiles at the Sultan’s Palace. #yogyakarta (at Komplek Keraton Djogjakarta)
Kraton, the Sultan’s Palace. Learning about the importance of numbers 1, 7 and 9; meanings of colours; and how all the decoration has something to do with sexuality. #yogyakarta
Fresh tempeh, tofu, salad (urap), sambal (chili), and watermelon. Traditional Javanese fare can be surprisingly #vegan-friendly! The spicier the better. ;) (at Karangasri Outbond)
Today I trekked up a river through the forest, and explored rice paddies, salak (snake fruit) plantations and traditional fish farms. #yogyakarta (at Karangasri Outbond)
