Taman Mexico (Mexican Garden) at Bogor Botanical Garden


Peek-a-boo :) 
Can you find me behind the cactus? 
Yeaay you right I am wearing my favorite pink shirt ^_^

In the beginning of March 2019, my friends and I were visiting Bogor Botanical Garden (Kebun Raya Bogor / KRB). KRB is located in Bogor City, it only 10 minute walking from Bogor Train Station. We were going there to realeasing stress, wacthed scenery, had picnic, took a lot of selfie, and many other activity. But that story was for next post. In this post I will pick only one part of KRB that become my favorite spot :) 

Taman Mexico (Mexican Garden)


This spot is entirely different with any other spot in KRB. Mexican Garden had been created to look like garden in Mexico. The environment is more dry, not so much big tree, and there are a lot of cactus and sharp leaf plants. When you visiting KRB and found this place you definitely will see the contrast between Mexican Garden and its surrounding. I do feel like I am in different country because this kind of garden is seldom found in Indonesia. 


This place is perfect spot to take a picture and take a rest before continue the journey to explore KRB. But It actually not comfortable to stay in this garden too long because it don't have many big tree so if the weather is sunny better quickly take picture and move on >_<


Another beautiful picture of me taken by my friends Ines. We going to KRB only for relaxing and enjoying the park but we discover this beautiful place and can't help ourself to take a lot of picture. Mexican Garden is a little bit secluded in KRB but its worth the trip to discover this place and taking a lot of picture and making memory with your friends.

Here is my tips for you if you want to explore KRB:

1. Wear comfortable shoes and clothes, KRB is so wide. You will walk a lot and will extremely uncomfortable if you wear high heels. 
2. Don't use too much make up. Yes, it is true that there are a lot of spot that will look very good in the picture but you will sweat a lot and if you use thick make up you will busy keep your make up intact. Just believe that beauty come from a happy and peaceful heart.
3. Wear thin shirt and make your bags as light as possible. You will sweating a lot and will regret not using comfortable shirt.
4. Use sun screen because the sun light will so bright in sunny day.
5. Bring umbrella or train coat, in Bogor almost everyday is raining so make sure you have it guys.
6. Bring enough water with you. Actually there are cafe and some spot that sells drink but as I said before KRB is so wide. Keep yourself hydrated because you will walk a lot.    

That my story about Mexican Garden in KRB. All the picture is taken March 2018. Even when my friends and I was visiting KRB this month we didn't go to Mexican Garden but we went to zoology Musuem and presidential palace instead that located in the opposite direction.

See you on next post.. XOXO..

A story about Corona..

In Indonesia, we still suffering from Coronavirus. We struggling right now and everyone hoping this pandemic will be over soon. During this pandemic, the Indonesian government ask us to stay at home. We all facing a new normal now. My sister works at the health department. She told me that even her workmate become a victim and die. My brother is 33 years old, he told me last night that his best friends die because of Corona. I know this virus is dangerous. I kept myself at home and only get out if there is something very important. This time I'm facing this pandemic far from home. I'm still struggling to finish my master degree at IPB University. It really hard but I know I can survive. Every day my family always called me and it the reason to keep me going. My family always become my number one motivator. As you have noticed, I made a lot of story about travelling. I did that because I do like travelling. I like to go to new places where I can meet new people, heard sto...

Gudeg Wong Solo (Food you can eat in Probolinggo)

I want to show you around my beautiful hometown Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia. I gather my courage to post this because I saw a lot of tourist visiting Mount Bromo but only using my hometown to take train to another city instead of wandering and exploring Probolinggo. SO here I will show you around guys.. I will start with my experience buying “Gudeg” an traditional food from Jogjakarta, Indonesia. Here in my town there are a few people selling Gudeg I want to share my experience for having breakfast in a “warung” (Indonesian restaurant) “PECEL GUDEG SOLO (Mas Supar)” it located in Jalan Brigjen Katamso No 37 (Utara Plaza) Probolinggo.  Pecel Gudeg Wong Solo I choose “Sate Komo” as addition on my gudeg. Sate Komo is baked meat skewed with spicy flavor. I also ordered orange juice for the drink. The price for my menu is IDR 21.000. This is it :) The flavor is rich with the spicy sambal is just right to complete the whole package.I really wish you ...

BACT Opening Ceremony

August last year I joined Summer School Programme in National Taiwan University, Taiwan. The programme name  was BACT (Biodiversity, Agriculture and Culture in Taiwan). I wanted to share my experience in Taiwan here with you all. The first day started with introduction and welcoming from BACT Lecturer. Every participant was seated in the bench with name tag on it. So I quickly scanned the room and searching for Rizky Trisna Putri name tag on the desk. This name tag on the table help us a lot to recognize all the participant name. I was so happy that I got a nice souvenir because I can guess who is the first inisiator of BACT. They gave us a very nice and soft cake. They also provided us with dairy product of NTU. I love milk so much. I prefer cow milk than soybean milk (They give us both). Nevertheless I like it all the snack that given to us. They give us a black bag and in the inside there are a lot of usefull thing like raincoat, cap, bug sprayer, note, guid...
