Just few days ago we arrived in Sochi. I never thought I would be able to step my feet in Russia. The visas, the political conflicts, etc. It's just a miracle I am now here, with my beloved family.
If I recall correctly, Sochi really reminds me of Semarang, my hometown. The landscape, the weather, it's humidity... Everything!
What Semarang doesn't have is just it's caviar! Klasna!
Food is super amazing here! Let me say: fruits, veggies, cheese, and of course 'CAVIAR'!
I just love being surrounded by mountains and sea. About black sea, it's is warm, full of healthy minerals, just awesome! Dipping yourself in the sea at 5 am is the best!
I heard that before winter Olympics, Sochi was one of worst place to be (traffic jam, tons of constructions, dirty beaches, etc). But now, I don't see it all. All I see is just subtropical heaven. I hope Jokowi governance will be able to make Jakarta, Semarang and any other places in Indonesia become like Sochi. I do really hope so.
If you are curious and want to know more about Sochi, let me know! I would love to answer your questions as soon as possible.
