HONEYMOON: PANTAI TEGALWANGI BALI



If you don't already know, we are Bali freaks. We love to visit Bali few times a year, just because. It'll only do justice that we go to Bali too, for our honeymoon. So yes, after a day trip in Kuala Lumpur, 4 days in Gold Coast, 1 day being in transit OOL-KL-DPS, finally a full day to enjoy the island we hold very dear. Here's our honeymoon Day 6 and 7 story.

HONEYMOON: DREAMWORLD COOMERA


Taunya Jodoh: dionayu honeymoon to Dreamworld


Hari ke-4 di Gold Coast: another theme park! Kalau kemarin sudah ke Movie World, hari ini kami ke Dreamworld. Ada beberapa rides yang sama dengan USS atau USJ, soalnya di Dreamworld ada Dreamworks Experience. Semua rides dan karakter yang ada di Dreamworks Experience adalah hasil terjemahan dari film-film Dreamworks. Serunya lagi, di Dreamworld ngga cuma ada rides, tapi ada kebun binatang juga!

MOVING OUT AND MOVING IN (ARE TIRING)

Taunya jodoh: kosan pasutri

Setelah menikah rencana awalnya adalah tinggal di kosan dulu sebulan, lalu cari kontrakan atau beli rumah yang masuk budget. Setelah survey sana sini, kontrakan yang masuk budget dan cukup nyaman lokasinya pasti di pinggir Jakarta, and we're beginning to love our current location. Deket dari mana-mana. Sedangkan untuk rumah, masih belum nemu yang sreg. What we do is...

HOW TO KNOW IF HE'S THE ONE



Taunya Jodoh: Thought Catalogue
Written by Raden Ayu

Every now and then we'd like to share some of our thoughts. This time would be about the question most girls asked to herself. So I figured, it'll be best if I write the post and not Dion hehe.. We'll see what Dion would like to write about.

So how did I know he's the one? Gimana taunya kalau dia beneran jodoh kamu? Read on to know, but this post is only for those of you yang mau pacaran yah, saya ngga punya pengalaman taaruf soalnya hehe.

THE ENGAGEMENT: PREPARATION AND EXECUTION

Taunya Jodoh: persiapan lamaran dion dan ayu
One step closer to becoming Mr and Mrs Tengker
Unlike orang bule yang setelah cowoknya propose, ceweknya bilang iya, kemudian dianggap officially engaged, tradisi orang Indo masih perlu prosesi lamaran yang disaksikan kedua keluarga. For those of you who just got proposed and didn't know what to do next, don't worry. Kita semua melalui proses yang sama, sama-sama ngga tahu mesti ngapain buat lamaran.

HONEYMOON: MOVIE WORLD GOLD COAST

This was the highlight of our GC honeymoon trip. The weather was really nice, sunny and windy. Perfect for a day at the park. Oke, another fun fact: biar kata matahari cerah, ga ada keringet keluar setetes pun. Ketek kering, jidat kering, pokoknya masih wangi. How can we not love GC's weather on September (Padahal kemarin baru aja keujanan hahahaha)!

HONEYMOON: WET'N'WILD GOLD COAST

Maybe you will say, apaan nih? Honeymoon kok ke waterpark? Bikeeeezzzz.... selain kita anaknya suka pantai dan laut, suka nyari sunset, suka musik, kita juga pecinta theme park dan water park. Setelah sekian bulan ngga traveling, there's no chance for common honeymoon itinerary. We're going to get down and dirty, just how we like it! Wait, what?

HONEYMOON: GOLD COAST

Finally, menjejakkan kaki di Gold Coast, Australia. Kami mendarat di Coolangatta Airport pukul 8 pagi. Tadinya mau naik bus ke Surfers Paradise, tapi ternyata Nadia (sepupu Dion) berbaik hati mau menjemput kami di bandara. The weather was nice, sunny and breezy. Cucok buat yalan-yalan hanimun hehehe...

HONEYMOON: KUALA LUMPUR

Hengon, kok tiba-tiba ada Kuala Lumpur di honeymoon destination? Iya, transit di Kuala Lumpur dulu sebelum ke Gold Coast karena naik AirAsia. Kami memang selalu opt for first departure flight, selalu suka lihat sunrise dari jendela pesawat. Nah, flight ke GC-nya malam. We have 8 hours til the next flight, and we have the whole city as our waiting room!

THE HONEYMOON


Kami cinta jalan-jalan. Kami cinta laut. Mestinya sih kami semangat buat honeymoon, tapi persiapan pernikahan yang cukup bikin stress menyita semua waktu kami hahaha. It wasn't until a month before the wedding that we did a comprehensive honeymoon planning. Kenapa gitu, mesti comprehensive? Karena we'll be hopping around, like A LOT!
