Hello blogosphere!
I know I haven’t blogged in a while, simply because there were lots of things going on offline that I found it hard to blog. I know, I know, cliche – right?!
But anyway now that we’re already halfway through February, I feel the itch to write so this post will be a random – life update – kind of post. So, here are the things that happened lately…
The Staycation
On late January my best friend that is now studying in Melbourne came back to Jakarta for a quick holiday. I decided to take a Friday off and we (along with 2 other friends) had a staycation in DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Central Jakarta. We got a good rate through Booking.com since I am a genius member (tip: if you use the site often you can become a genius member and can get extra perks and discounts!). Oh btw this is not sponsored it’s just I love to use the site a lot and very much enjoyed my stay there 🙂
The Bandung Trip
The next weekend I went on a day trip to Bandung to attend my friend’s wedding. It was a lovely garden wedding and I’m so happy to see her happy 🙂 After the wedding I managed to stop by Cuanki Serayu (all time favorite! :D) and had their Batagor to-go. Even though Bandung’s traffic was not too friendly that day.. it was still a lovely visit.
The Holiday Plan
Remember that I told you I will be going somewhere this March? and that I’ll pick 2 lucky people from this post to get a little something from that trip?
Since it’s almost a month before my trip and I’m just waiting for my visa (fingers crossed!), I am ready to tell you that I’ll be going to Shanghai this March! YAY!! I’ll be going solo, and so far only have 1 fixed itinerary in mind that is to visit Disneyland Shanghai :D. Apart from that, this time I want to try going plan-less and just see where my feet will take me. I’m super excited because I’ve been wanting to go to Shanghai for a long time but also nervous because I can’t speak the language.. hehehe, but I’m sure it’ll be a fun trip! Have you been to Shanghai? Any particular place that I must not miss?
Anyway, on the giveaway – there were 21 people who answered the questions thus eligible for the giveaway. Thank you so much for you comments and feedback for this blog! ❤ Now, without further ado let me announce the lucky giveaway winners … I used a list sequence generator from random.org, and chose number 1 and 2 on the list as the winners.
Dear Fe and Deny, please give your address through my email 🙂 I hope you’ll like a little something from Shanghai 🙂
Once again thank you for everyone else that has participated. I’m going to close this random post here. It’s getting late here in Jakarta and yes, Monday is approaching soon!
Here’s to a great week ahead, until next post! x
Christa Bercerita

Wuaaaah asiknya yang mau ke Shanghai. Itu cookie 🍪 enak beneran ya? Penasaran bgt soalnya temen2 gw doyan amat 😆
Enak! Soalnya pas dikasih, masih hangat gitu.. chocolatey with lots of nuts, yummm. Kalau lagi ke Jakarta cobain nginep aja 🙂
Nanti cerita di blog ya. Kepingin ke Disney Shanghai jg
Sippp nanti aku ceritain 🙂
Hati2 Ta kalau ke disney hahaha banyak yg pee sembarangan di semak2 taman…suamiku waktu itu liat sampe jijik sendiri. Trus mereka suka menyelak antrian, caranya mrk mepet2 ke kita kaya copet, otomatis krn kita takut kena copet krn ditempelin sm org. Begitu kita minggir, masuklah mereka hahaha. Atau pake cara anaknya suruh nyelak, begitu berhasil langsung semua satu kampung masuk nyelak 😅 Cuma wahananya bagus dan modern…happy holiday yah Ta!
Waaa gitu yaaa… hahaha aku udah banyak sih baca/nonton review aneh2, tapi masi nekad pergi. Still hoping bakal tetep magical like other Disneylands. Hehe tapi siipp aku pasti akan lebih hati2 deh, soalnya kan pergi sendiri 🙂 Thank you yah!!
Selamat buat para pemenang and have a good, happy, and safe journey in Shanghai, Christa 🙂
Makasih Inong 🙂
Selamat buat yang menang.. Wahh Shanghai.. Tar update2 dimari ya Chris.. Gw penasaran justru sama keluakuannya mereka.. Secara waktu itu sempat viral yg anak kecil pupi sembarang sambil nunggu ditaman kan 😀
