Well, a week has already passed since I started writing this post so before more time slips away, let me get back to it because…. Woooooooah…. this was just the perfect way to spend a Sunday… the way I have dreamed about for years… the way I never thought was possible in Jakarta! The things […] Read more »
A trip to Karawang, Bekasi
One of the greatest things about our line of work is that we get to travel around and see some pretty amazing places and meet so many beautiful and very humble people. Late last year, Putra was shooting for Samsung Note 5, so Samudra and I went on an adventure to visit him on location […] Read more »
Easter Fun at Veranda
So I’m a little late with this post as Easter Sunday was already a week ago today, but we had such an amazing time last Monday at the Yummy Mummies play date. This is the first time I have celebrated Easter in Jakarta in the six years I have been here, and this year I […] Read more »
Kids love Kuntum Nurseries
I wrote about our visit to Kuntum Nurseries last year but as we just visited it again last weekend on our way to stay at Novotel Bogor, I thought I would write about it again as we love it so much. If you have young kids and you’re heading to Bogor for a day trip […] Read more »
Bogor Botanical Gardens
As much fun as it can be to explore Jakarta, it’s also fun (& obligatory I find) to get away from the traffic and air conditioned malls and get away for some fresh air and nature to recharge your batteries. The closest and easiest option for us is to head to Bogor and we spent […] Read more »
Yellow = Happiness
The last two years seem to have flown by here in Jakarta since having Samudra – it’s been a crazy journey with lots of ups and downs, plenty of tears, and even more happiness, laughter and love than I could have ever dreamed of. A big part of me staying sane at times has been […] Read more »
Giggles at The Fun Factory!
Hey there! remember me? I seem to have disappeared for far too long, so much has been happening, play dates, dinner dates, work, work, work, Ramadan and Idul Fitri came and went and my little boy turned TWO (more on this later)… and in all this time I haven’t managed to pick up my camera!

Last Yummy Mummy Play Date for 2014
I want to say a HUGE thank you to the lovely mum’s and babes in this group who helped to make 2014 so special for us… especially to Sarah for hosting at her house every week (so many toys! every kids dream…). Although we had to miss many of the Monday morning catch-up’s, those we […] Read more »
100 Days of Happiness – Day 93
Although I was awake with Samudra so early today, I tried to stall getting out of bed for as long as possible as I had it in my head that I wanted to take him to Ragunan Zoo for a change of scenery, but remembered that it wouldn’t open until 9.00am. I figured by the time […] Read more »
100 Days of Happiness – Day 79
As much as I tried, I couldn’t get Samudra back to sleep once he had woken super early this morning, so we played until 6.00am when it was at least a reasonable hour for me to get out of bed and go for a walk. I must say I scared myself to look down as […] Read more »
