You should definitely go check it out. Beautiful place. I think it's like 1.5 - 2 hours away no? Living in Surakarta what sights have you seen so far and what are you up to in Surakarta?
@@mattkoenig i like to cafe hop. There's a lot of nice coffee places here. I'm a retro gamer so I play old games on my macbook or just browse social media and watch youtube. I go to a christian church with my wife (she's christian, i'm agnostic), sometimes we go play billiards, walk around the mall, sometimes we go to whatever events are happening such as traditional javanese dancing, sometimes we take trips out of town. I've been to Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, Kuta and Sanur. In solo I've been to Pasar Gede, Solo Palace tour, and a bunch of other places i can't remember the names of. I didn't go to prembanan temple or borobudur because they bule price 😂
Wow nice! Sounds like a great life. You're wife is Indonesian? We were in Surakarta in 2022, spent time in Yogya as well. Seems like we've been to many of the same places. We were just in Surabaya and Malang as well as Bali a month ago. We went to Prambanan and Borobudur many many years ago. I forget how much it was back then but I do remember there were different prices for foreigners. Nice to meet you!
The view of gunung marapi is so beautiful ❤️
It really is! I can't wait to go back and explore some more.
i've been living in Surakarta for over a year and haven't visited there yet. think I will check it out soon
