TL: It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.

With the new bullet train, I took this wonderful day trip to Bandung.

WHOOSH (Indonesian Shinkansen)

I never thought my home country would have not just a bullet train, but also the first bullet train in Southeast Asia. It’s amazing how a trip to the neighbouring city of Bandung went from a 3-hour car ride to just 1! Apart from the slight louder noise from other passengers and the super cringey way they end their onboard announcements, the experience is very similar to the Japanese Shinkansen.

Super proud of this achievement and I do encourage you to try it if you ever go to Jakarta and make a day trip to Bandung (a pretty cool city in itself). Tickets start at just $16 each way.

Though an active US naval base is nearby, it is still a strange sight to see in Japan…

Good take on the traditional street snack, as is with their modern interpretations of other Indonesian classics.

It was a hot and sweaty 2 hours at the polling station, but I’m glad to have given my say.

Haven’t had a good cut of steak in a while. Pricey by Indonesian standards but well worth the quality (and the generous sides)
