Jayapura, my home sweet home.

Merry Christmas 2015 and Happy New Year 2016.


Hola folks, it's been so long after my last update this blog. I have been so busy with my new job in new company and kinda hard to catch up the time. I have many travel but mostly at work, so there is not so many chances for my camera to do it's talking. But I did some stories left behind before this post, still I think this is the best "photography says" that I want to share to you in the beginning of 2016.

It is about my hometown Jayapura, Papua, Indonesia. My last trip here was 2006 and just this Christmas I come back to my town, to my home, to my parent. Yes, after 9 years away for life adventure, at the end, this time I really come home.

Well, it doesn't mean I never met my parent in the time, I think we met often lately. But not in my home, it is in other islands, in other occasions. 

While I am visiting my home town, I go back to my old memory, from my childhood until the day I left the city for collage and work. So many changed, but still some remains. And going through the roads and places, old and new one, bringing back the memory and the love of my hometown that always in me.

I would like to introduce you to my home town. It is very humble and small home, and not all places were able to visit this time, but still, you can see my photography says....

This beach was direct to open ocean, so they build a wall to cover the high current and tides, then now people can swim here, this is beautiful...





Do you see big tide behind? :p





I. Pantai Base-G


I don't know why its named beach Base-G, 
perhaps it was named while World War and it was called G base for troops.
