First Journey to Gunung Kidul

Posted on March 17, 2015
Gunung Kidul is the name of which means South Hills in Javanese. Gunung Kidul Regency is a regency in the southeast part of the province of Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia. The regency  is bordered by the city of Yogyakarta to the north west, Bantul Regency to the west, Sleman Regency to the north west and the Indian Ocean to the south.
The southern coastal of Gunung Kidul is rough and wild but exotic with several beautiful beaches: Baron, Kukup, Krakal, Drini, Sepanjang, Sundak, Siung, Wediombo and Sadeng. Some of these beaches provide fresh fish and other sea product supplied by local fisherman. The most notable is Baron beach. There is a park next to the beach surrounded by seafood restaurants and hostels. There is a fresh fish market in the east side of the beach. On the west side, a river flows out from an almost sea-level cave on the side of western ridge. The beach itself is khaki-colored and sprawled with traditional fishermens' boat. Beside the main beach there is a kilometre of almost untouched white sand beach lying beyond its eastern ridge. It can be reach by small hike; there is a rest area with a beautiful view on top of the eastern hill.

Green Is The Colour

Heavy hung the canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
Contemplation @Sendang Sumberjaya Gondanglegi Malang East Java

White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore
She lay in the shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Green grass and my fish farm (tambak) @Lamongan East Java

Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine beat her blind everytime
Green is the colour of her kind
Night before Kelud Eruption @Wates Kulon Progo Yogyakarta
 Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Many is the bond between the hopefull and the damned

Glagah Beach: Between The Airport and Mine

Posted on August 25, 2014
"Laut untuk Masa Depan" is the tagline that I found not far from the entrance gate of glagah Beach tourism - Kulon Progo Jogjakarta. This area was once the spotlight on the construction airports and iron mine, to forward this region will become a Center for investment and community can experience the dilemma between conservation of nature with the influx of money from outside. Farmers would prefer to trade off on planting watermelons. Fishermen would prefer to become a laborer instead of having to search for fish struggled. It already exists in the view of young people on there.
