After one and a half week in Jakarta, Sentul and Bogor we decided to take a four day trip to Yogyakarta – the city in Central Java I fell in love with about 6 years ago.
I can’t explain what exactly makes me fall in love with Yogya everytime I put my feet in this wonderful city… There’s just something about the people and maybe the architecture (?!) that’s really unique! I felt comfortable even though I had no idea where we had to go!
The first day we went to see my boyfriends relatives, there are sooo many of them in Yogya! We had a great time with them and I ate my first “Gudeg” at their house…
Gudeg is a traditional meal from Yogyakarta. It’s really sweet especially in comparison to all the other meals from Indonesia – mostly all of them are really spicy…
The second day we went to the graves of my boyfriends grandparents. It was the first time I went to a cementary in Indonesia. Both, my boyfriends grandma and grandpa, were part of the indonesian independence war. That’s why there are signs on there graves – the Indonesian Flag and the writing “Pejuang” which means “battler”. So everyone knows what they have done for their country.
