Based in Jakarta, Indonesia, but traveling when mother nature allows me to do so. Also; things from Indonesia.
Doing some research for the correct terms to be put in my next video, but I guess searches like 'fragmentation ammunition grad' are probably flagged somewhere.

Anyway, video on Russian war crimes in Ukraine coming up.

I'm keeping it at this, the title will be revealed when the video is out in a few days.

The statue of Ukrainian poet, writer and national figure Taras Shevchenko in the town of Borodyansk, Kyiv Oblast was hit by shrapnel early on in the full-scale invasion by Russia that started in 2022. The head is now facing down, but just as Ukraine, Taras hasn't given up!

It’s okay, everyone does it! As we are waiting for train number three - yes it’s really busy on the main rail corridor, but at least I have the fuckin’ patience to wait a few minutes – we can see more and more motorcyclists jump in front of the queue by going under the gate.

Looking into 2026 travel destinations be like... maybe not?

This could be the intro for a cheap Netflix production about a cheap conman scamming billions from those too dumb to shit... but it's the White House homepage.

Some of what Russians left behind when they were kicked out of Borodyanka, Kyiv Oblast in March 2022 is now on display in a museum run by locals. Ask someone at the Borodyanka Palace of Culture to let you in and they'll show you around.

When I first entered Ukraine earlier this year, I was on the Kyiv Express. Next time I'm planning to take a bus across the border, probably from Moldova. That also means I can visit other parts of Ukraine then. 💙💛

Among the destruction of the early days of the full-scale Russian invasion into Ukraine, the town of Borodyanka (Kyiv Oblast) is rebuilding. It was occupied for some five weeks, leaving destroyed buildings and people murdered by the barbaric hordes.

Ukraine is strong, Ukraine needs to be strong.

Today is Ukraine's national day of remembrance of the Holodomor, a genocide that came in the form of a man-made famine in 1932-1933 used as an effort to wipe out the Ukrainian identity by the Soviets.

This is the Holodomor Statue near the entrance of the Holodomor Genocide Museum in Kyiv, Ukraine.

Banksy's "Solidarity with Ukraine" - an unofficial title - is a series of murals in deoccupied areas northwest of Kyiv. The one in the town of Borodyanka in Kyiv Oblast, features a young boy throwing a man to the ground. The man is seen as Putin, who is known to have played judo.

This flag of Ukraine can be found near the Motherland Monument in Kyiv, Ukraine. Located on a hill on the western bank of the Dnipro River, you have views over large parts of the city on both banks.

More full video's about my visit to Ukraine coming soon.

Indonesia loves shoving foreigners under the bus for whatever reason, heck their current president uses the phrase 'antek-antek asing' ('foreign scoundrel') every once in a while.

Meanwhile.. the website of the immigration service is hosted by Google. In the USA.

Only in recent days I've started to edit more video material from Ukraine last August. I'm now going to work on a few shorter video's from my trip to Borodyanka, Bucha and Irpin. Here's my guide Serhii venting about the savage hordes that we collectively call russians.

I find myself looking for hotels with an on-site shelter again. I've only recently returned from Ukraine, but I guess I'll head over again soon.

Never rode a funicular railway in my life, until 2025 came along. And I did two this year, the first one was the Montmartre Funicular in Paris, the second was the one in Kyiv, Ukraine. And oh, I also did one official 'Schwebebahn', which one do you think I did?

Northern lights you say? The weather is pretty clear here at the moment, so I might give it a try.

Düsseldorf Int'l Airport from getting off the plane to walking out of the airport in about 7 minutes. Schiphol could never. 🔥

Indonesia added something to my PR (KITAP) today. I now also have a permanent re-entry permit instead of one that's valid for just 2 years. 🔥

Zijn we al klaar voor wekenlang gezeik over 'FrAuDe MeT dE Stemmen!! 11' van de FVD en PVV? Want dat gaat gebeuren als de aantallen zetels lager zijn dan in de natte dromen van ze natuurlijk.

Economy class train? Economy class meal! The salt from the cup noodles can't be washed away by the sugar from the sachet of cappuccino though. #KABanyubiru

Fanciest iced coffee latte I've ever had I think, as I can't be bothered really how it's presented. It's from a station outlet at Halim high speed train station in Jakarta. 😅
