Melbourne Winter Holiday

 











Melbourne - Winter Holiday is one of my best holiday in Australia, because it is during this Winter Holiday I got to see the real snow for the first time in my entire life. Not only its because the snow which make one of my best holiday but its also because we stayed at a Waterfront apartment in Grand Mercure Apartment Melbourne, making my holiday more perfect. What an amazing view when you walk at the balcony. The bridge, birds, yachts, docks, tall buildings, the Telstra Dome Melbourne and cold freezing wind, that is all you can see and feel in the apartment balcony. We also went to Underwater World in Melbourne, what an amazing place to go, you felt like you can really touch the fish, the shark and the stingray. 

Melbourne is an amazing city to go for your next winter holiday, truly a recommended place to visit !

Tennis Dong Club Brisbane


  












Brisbane - "Tennis Dong Club" is a tennis club established by the Indonesian in Brisbane. Located by the river side in UQ (University of Queensland) this club is getting more popular each year. I learned how to play tennis for the first time from this club and until now I still playing tennis. Each year there was also a competition being held on by the member of this club. We have lots of fun playing tennis and I wish that Tennis Dong Club still existed until today.

Watching Sunrise TV Show Live !













Brisbane - It was a cool morning in Brisbane; I heard that Sunrise was celebrating their annual birthday and that they put on a live show in South Bank Brisbane. Heard the news my family and I come over to South Bank to watch the show. Sunrise is one of the popular morning programs in Australian Television Network. I personally watch Sunrise every morning. Not to miss it to get picture taken with the presenter, it was an unthinkable experience.

Senior High School Brisbane














Brisbane - Indooroopilly State High School is my senior High School in Brisbane after I was graduated from Ironside State School. I have lots of memories in this school, met lots of friends coming from around the world and having really kind teachers. In here we all felt like we were family. I miss the old days and hoping someday I'll meet you guys again.

New Year Eve in Australia


 












Brisbane - It’s the time where everyone has been waiting for. It’s time to get you out to party and celebrate the night until the new year come. During our stay in Brisbane Australia, every year my family and I always celebrate the New Year Eve. In Brisbane, the amazing view to watch the firework crackling and sparkling in the night sky is in South Bank. Every year this New Year Eve Event was carrying out in South Bank and every year it gets even more crowded. My family and I had to ride the City Cat to get to the South Bank and it’s not that easy to get into the City Cat itself, because it is crowded you have to wait of about 1-2 hours to get in. I was pumped so for that hours to wait was not a problem at all. We have to bring our own equipment such as carpet and food so that we can watch the firework nicely on the spot. After the time show 10 minutes to the New Year everyone was ready, countdown of time begin, music was turn out loud, small firework started and then follow with the big one. It was cold but fun night out. 

New Year Eve in Brisbane Australia was one of the event that never forgotten !

Holiday in Byron Bay















New South Wales - It was summer holiday, my family and I decided to visit the famous light house in Australia. Located out the border of Queensland and in the region of New South Wales, Byron Bay was sure is one of the popular tourist’s destination in Australia. An amazing sea view and environment surrounding makes you felt that this place was your own front yard. I saw dolphins and turtles on that day. 

Byron Bay is one of the destination that you should visit during your summer holiday in Australia !

Celebrating Indonesian Day in Brisbane !















UQ Brisbane - Celebrating the Indonesian Day in the neighboring country was also an exciting moment, doesn’t matter in which country did you celebrated on, whether it’s in Indonesia or Australia there’s no differences. Celebrating the 17th of august in Brisbane Australia, all the Indonesian citizen in Brisbane was invited. We gather in an open space at UQ as if it felt like we were in Indonesia. Barbeque on the spot were not missed. Tons of sausages and beef blended with mouthwatering sauce are ready to roast, hmmmm… what a food that was.
