Adit is a friend that I gonna meet up in Jogja, I contact him through couchsurfing and he agreed to meet up omce I arrived after meeting up with pleasure he invited me and my friend to stay with him although he got another guest from the state too. Adit took us to have dinner and chiling outside the convenience store like a local.

Street arts all over Jogja is the first thing I notice.

Local prefer to buy drinks from convenient store and then just sit in front of the store and chills. We are one of them too

Street performance also very common here

2nd day: Adit and his gf- Maria took us to Museum seni and budaya Jawa located at kaliurang. It take about 30mins from the city center. Indeed it is a nice place to visit if you got extra time.
entrance fees (Foreigner :RP 50,000 Student: RP 25,000 Local: RP 25,000) . Bring your student card if you got one.

Mt.Merapi

Adit took us to MT. Merapi but the weather wasn't nice to us.
Gunung Merapi located in the southern area of central Java, overlooking the ancient royal city of Yogyakarta, is the most active volcano in Indonesia.

Houses was destroyed and people was killed by the eruption of Mt.Merapi
