Hello! Wow, seems like this is going to be my first post here. Let me introduce myself: my name is Lera, i am russian, born in (cooooldest) Subarea, but currently living in Indonesia. My passion is travelling, fashion (im working as a model), good music/books and yoga!
I would like to devote this first article to Indonesia. Im living here for 3! years and step by step learning the culture and the language.
People here are always smiling, despite all the difficulties the life brings to their lifes. This beg indonesian smile is true and its gonna fill your soul and make you smile back even if you dont really plan to do it.
Come here and follow the moto "santai", which in indonesian language means "relax", "keep it simple". No stress, only smile seems to be a right path to reach the happiest life, right?
It can appear funny on the first sight, but if you meet an indonesian, first things which he ask will be:
•Have you already have your breakfast? (usulally breakfast consist of rice and some veggies) (Sudah sarapan belom?)
•Have you already have your shower? (Sudah mandi belom?)
•Where is your family and your husband? (Keluarga kamu dimana? Sudah punya pacar belom?)
..
Yes, maybe at first it is weird, but i have never met anyone who refuse to help me here. Indonesian people will help you until you get helped, so no worries if you are lost, anyone will be happy to show you around.
Everyone is a millionaire!!! How?! Right, guys-the currency. 1 dollar is 13500 rupiah, so that means 100 dollars gonna be a million and three hundred rupiah.. well, as for me its pretty cool to have couple of millions in my pocket, though counting the money is inconvenient, because the maximum banknote is 100 thousand rupiah.
In conclusion, the last but not the least important point on my life in Indonesia is the paradise island Bali. One of the most beautiful and inspiring place of out mother Earth. Delicious food, picturesque locations, unbelievable experience of surfing or yoga retreats. Everyone falls in love with this place! Now i am going to treat your eyes with wonderfull pictures, and you will understand what i mean!
Thank you for reading me, stay tuned and i will share articles about my travelling around 40 countries, yoga informations, strange fashion and great sides of modeling. Lets have fun!!
