Big Trip: What to Expect

Hello again! Now I’m about to rant about what I expect on the Big Trip to Central Java (we don’t know the city yet) and what I would like to encounter there.

Well, firstly I would totally love going to Semarang or Jogjakarta. I personally don’t like Solo as much as Jogja or Semarang. I would like Lasem as well if the theme is about Batik because I adore Lasem made Batik patterns that are so detailed and small, different from Jogja’s which usually have big patterns.

If the theme is on food, I would love going to Semarang, because the inner Javanese in me loves food with lots of soy sauce, which Semarang owns. I also love their mie Jawa, because who doesn’t? Just saying, my tongue is very Javanese. I also like Soto Kudus and the sate kerang (I think it was clams) but it’s such a shame that I’m highly allergic to quail eggs, so I can’t eat the quail egg satay that is so popular in Kudus.

 Okay, enough of the foods, I would want to talk about cultural experiences I would love. I would love theatrical shows, like the Sriwedari Wayang Orang in Solo if I’m not mistaken, and the Ramayana drama thing in Prambanan, also I would like to see a wayang show but because it tends to be very late at night I don’t think it would be possible.

I can’t actually expect anything because I don’t know where I’m going and what is the theme for the trip, so I can only say what I would like to encounter.

So, as I always say, thank you for reading!
