I am an easy going person, I enjoy meeting travelers from different nationalities and background. I'm a quiet guy and not creative enough to open a topic in a conversation. To keep me talking, i have to be questioned. But some people said, I'm the opposite of what i think i was.

I like to share my travel experiences, and listened to people experiences as well. Travel stories is full of knowledges.

I can not drink together with meals, i drink 15 minutes after meals, its my habit.
I prefer to stay home after 11 PM and sleep. To give my body enough rest (sleeping) is important for me.

I lived in Bali for 12 years before Covid and finally gave up with the situation and return home in Banyuwangi since mid 2020 till now. Currently i work freelance as a Tour Leader for Pakistan mostly during Autumn. Other that that time, I’m mostly at home. So welcome ….

About my home.
1st thing you need to know THAT my home is not in Banyuwangi city center or near Ijen Crater. BUT in is 55 kilometers away in Southern part of Banyuwangi calls Dusun: Blokagung Kecamatan: Tegalsari.
My area is 30 minutes from Djawatan forest and Red Island Beach. Its a village. So If you want to experience village life, relax and rest. You are in the right host.

How will you eat?
I don't really cook at home, i am not even good at it. You can buy food in the stall which is not really far from here. Or you can buy some ingredients and cook in my kitchen's home.
