Life in Quarantine: Personal Feelings and Relationships

It is currently day 131 of quarantine. Tbh when I googled “Days Calculator” I expected 400 something days. Then I realized that 1 year equals 365 days. Heh. The past 131 days do feel like 4 times longer. Odd times, don’t you think?   A couple of days ago, an idea sprung to mind. I asked some of my friends a series of questions about the quarantine, focusing on personal feelings and relationships. I might -caps lock on the word MIGHT- make this into a series of quarantine posts, maybe the next one we’ll talk about the future or economy or something else. We’ll see. We’ll see. Anyhow, I curated their answers and I present this to you all. I sincerely hope reading these frank answers will shed light on some of your own feelings and struggles, as they did with me.    "How are you feeling during the first few weeks of quarantine on a scale of 1-10?”   8, soalnya aku introvert dan ga gitu suka pergi-pergi jadi it's okay malah seneng bisa pulang kampung :D   10, seneng...

Where Did The Clouds Go? | Salzburg Winter Itinerary

We started our journey in Salzburg by dragging our-surprisingly not that heavy-suitcases across the train station to drop them in the hotel. You read that right, we dragged them. The  H+ Salzburg Hotel  is very conveniently located only several steps away from the station's door. The rooms were clean, receptionists were friendly and helpful, and everything else went very smoothly. We had zero complaints. H+ Salzburg Hotel Address:  Südtiroler Pl. 13, 5020 Salzburg, Austria Check-in: 15.00 Check-out: 12.00 Tip: I find hotels dot com offers better prices than other websites most of the time, but I could be biased since I am very comfortable with the interface and had saved up some nights as well. Just a suggestion :) Per usual, we marched right off after storing our luggage, straight to our first destination. Salzburg is most famous for 2 things: Mozart and The Sound of Music. We're not the biggest fans of them but we still had to stop by Mirabell Palace whic...

Innsbruck: Underrated | A 2-Day Winter Itinerary

Innsbruck, also known as The City of Alps, is a small town located near the mountains. Its main charm is the pastel-colored old town with a beautiful backdrop of the alps. In fact, it is enlisted as a UNESCO Heritage Site. I was not intrigued by this town at first, as Salzburg was the reason why I came to Austria. I just googled what city should I stop by other than the infamous Hallstatt and Innsbruck popped out on my research. We arrived in Innsbruck quite late on the afternoon and immediately checked in into our apartment. It's located very strategically in the heart of old town, with The Golden Roof only a few metres away. The apartment itself is not equipped by a front desk but we assumed that the guy (I think he is the manager) in the downstairs cafe was in charge as he handled our check in and out. He was very friendly and helpful. We requested an extra key and he immediately processed our inquiry and it was finished a couple of hours later. My tip on staying here w...
