Weekend activity ideas - Horse Riding




One of the perks of my job is being able to create activities while visiting some of the coolest places in the country, and abroad. This year, during the pandemic, we tried to slow down, and if we must do activities, we do it under a strict health and safety protocols.

Last week me and a group of participants went to Anantya Riding Club, for a short horse riding course. Horse riding was not a new thing for me, but I had never done it during my grown up moments, so it was kind of fun and therapeutic, seeing the beautiful horses.

Disclaimer: I visited Anantya Riding Club for work (as the event sponsor) with a group of adults in the middle of the week, at the end of January 2021, hence the situation and experience may differ. 

Anantya Riding Club is located in Gunung Putri, Bogor. You can google search and get the official website, along with the address. 

As we enter the venue, I saw some horses on the grass field, and I got very excited. I always like animals, the furry ones and horses in particulars^^

Entrance to the venue sight


I didn't take many pics, you can see in the official website. However, the place promises a serenity, and the horses, they are beautiful! 

We visited in the middle of the week, so most of the time it was only us (10 people). I would recommend to call first before visiting, so you can calculate the crowd (although I don't think it would be crowded, the sitting space and activity space is quite big)



Overall the place was clean, and the horses were healthy and well-groomed. The trainer was polite and nice. I didn't ride, I was in between being an event committee and try to sneak some pics for later story :p

I didn't get to ride, but I did have a chance to say hi to Barito


That's it. It's not much, but I hope this can also be a good idea of a fun weekend activities with your family. Stay safe and healthy!!

My work stations at home (1) : Outdoor set

  Hey all! How is it going? I finally registered to one of Indonesia’s top unis for my doctorate degree plan, wish me luck! I still have one more options but it doesn’t start the registration session until early next year, so I will be waiting patiently about that. I have been reading and taking the test simulations with some books, and the tests will be next week, so I thought I will slow down for one day. I have done what I can and I deserve a little break >.<   It has been uneasy to switch your behaviour from working to studying hahaha. I mostly do my work inside, in a room, for concentration, but for the slowing down day, I’m just going to do a little bit of my freelance task, and a lot of Prime Video, I need some good outdoor set, also to get some sun because I have been spending most of my times in a room with an AC.   As per usual, I prepared myself in the morning with a little bit of make-up, just to keep my discipline in grooming myself, because as fun as l...

Short trip to Medan - the culinary edition

This is a super late post, but I thought this info would be useful for you guys.. Had a chance to visit Medan some time ago for only one and a half day. While work was the focus, I had been meaning to have a little leisure while I was there. Medan, for me, is a place to indulge my taste bud, so many good food there.  So I checked around  from a travel apps for hotel to stay one night. Then I found Grand Aston City Hall Medan, it had this Aston Spa room available, it looked interesting. I was hooked by a picture of some kind of sauna or an onsen in that room, is that even possible? That room must be very expensive. I checked the price, it was around IDR 900k (I booked on weekdays – I checked nowadays it’s around IDR 1,150K). For that kind of facility, I thought it was still worthy, so I went with it. My trip to Medan was only for two days, I flew in the morning, then attended an event. Medan is such a beautiful city, and I have been a big fan of the hawker...

#stayathome inspires me to do this

Many things happen since March 2020. Learning to be comfortable at your own home is one of them. Now as the #stayathome becoming one of the normal things, I have develop many likings, many of them involve fashion and make-up. Yes, dressing up while you are at home, a bit unusual. It's just now I have more time (from the reduced travelling time when I was still working from the office) to put on my make up, and dressing more...nice. haha! That's me, trying to get some afternoon sun with my long-lost ALDO sunnies! I will be continuing to write more about things I do at home, maybe share pics on fashion, make up, home decorating and everything else in between, from my lovely home, at Jakarta, Indonesia. Stay safe and healthy!
