Trip to Stasiun Pasarturi - Surabaya

As I wrote this, it is 6.30 P.M. and I'm still riding on a train departing to the last station on this trip. Although the delayed trip, yet this train cruise still keep goes on in about 80-120 kilos per hour. From the Semarang station, it will be at least another 2-3 hours until arrival.

Not trying to advertise, but for those of you who needed online entertainment on board might want to consider using Smartfren Andromax. Now I have also Bolt from Firstmedia - but once we leave Bekasi the network coverage just gone. This one from Smartfren at least really titled its name with most network coverage in the country. At least 80-90% of this whole train trip, I can browse and stream movies quite well and without any downtime. Netflix runs fine during most of the trip.

I've taken some pictures and videos but it's on the gopro and to connect to this notebook is quite a hassle to do on train - not to mention unpacking the bag and everything. So as soon as I reached hotel - which is maybe another 2-3 hour trip using bus to another city - I will upload to the internet. :)

Long pause... and play

HI!

So the Chinese New Year is just ahead of us - and tomorrow I already starting my holiday early :) There are not much going on from the last time I wrote until now, but hopefully tomorrow it can start a new age for us - me and you as reader :)

I will be departing to Malang, East Java tomorrow and will stay there for about 4 days before I go to Surabaya to go back again to Jakarta. And I already committed not to taste any fast food, junk food, or any other culinary that is not specialised or at least a local cuisine there for all the day during the visit there. 

So - hopefully I will experience some great encounter of whatever it is I will face there - hope that the trip runs well and safe. And most of all, hope it will be a journey with lots of story to tell. Hope to reach you soon, see you - and happy holiday :)
