Gado-gado Boplo, originally uploaded by Chandra Marsono

In English, Gado-gado means hodgepodge. Yap..!! Like its name, this food, which is alike with salad, has hodgepodge ingredients. You can put anykind of boiled vegetables or side dish you like. You can put boiled eggs, tofu, water spinach, boiled potatoes, long beans, cucumber, etc. But sure do, you have to put vegetables because the mostly the ingredients are vegetable. One thing that you have to put is peanut sauce for its dressing. Otherwise, we cant call it gado-gado. In the end, you have to stir all the ingredient and then VOILA! You get very delicious thing to eat.. Hmm... Yummy Yummy!

For better Indonesia tourism

Since I was a kid, I always want to go travelling around Indonesia. That is because I know Indonesia has many provinces which have own uniqueness that is completely different from one another, starting from food, festival, traditional clothes, traditional song, traditional dance, etc.

At first, visiting all spots in Indonesia was my only desire. But when I know that one of Indonesia neighbor country has now become one of suggested tourist spots in Asia while Indonesia still stays the same, I was so sad to know that truth. How come that neighbor country become so famous but many people still think Bali is not part of Indonesia. I become more sad, remembering that in fact Indonesia has more recommended places to visit even lifetime won't be enough to see all the uniquenesses.

Then one day, I changed my dream, from travelling around Indonesia to promoting Indonesia tourism and presenting Indonesia culture to all people in this world, if it is possible to all creatures in this universe :)))

That is why I made this blog.
