Tour with Patrick and Family

"We want to see beaches, we want to swim, we want to visit town and mountains, and maybe litlle bit shopping and we want to be back by three" said Patrick. Patrick is from Perth, Como to be exact.

Jatiluwih Photo

Some people ask me where I took the photo of the banner of this blog. As you can see there, it's a photo of rice teraces. I took this photo several months ago in Jatiluwih on harvesting time.

I am at Jatiluwih now in the car waiting for my clients who are still busy taking photos. .
