The new coffee shops in Bandung has been personally special when it comes to their design, I see that some of the new ones that I went were designed with good effort, and from the eyes of a customer like myself, I am liking them because they're just my kind of design for a coffee shop: simple, homey, neat with a bit of Western vibe and altogether beautiful. I previously talked about the hype 180 Coffee and Music, and here's another good one: MIMITI COFFEE AND SPACE.

Mimiti (which by the way means "start" or "beginning") is located at Karangsari area (next to Gigglebox cafe) and technically not a spacious coffee shop, but the highlight of this coffee shop/concept store is definitely the how well it is designed that when you see it as an overall, it stands out beautifully. Most of the seatings are located at the al-fresco area but they do have a small indoor seating (like 6 people capacity only) inside their concept store. 

I don't know how to make this post longer because there really is not so much to say about Mimiti and I have described everything out for you. I think that the place is so on point and simple without much umimportant and rather annoying details, service was good and friendly, I like the coffee better than 180 (based on my visit) but not the best one (better go to Jack Runner for better coffee). I think people would go here to enjoy the ambiance and take tons of shameless OOTD pictures (this would make a perfect spot and backdrop by the way).

Thank you for reading.

Jogjakarta has always been my top local travel destinations in Indonesia, when I am writing these travel guide stories, I find it hard for me to start with them, not only because each place is different, they are also charming in their own way, if you ask me what I truly love the most about Jogjakarta, then it's most likely the humbleness of the overall, and the people. As an Indonesian myself, I must say that I find Indonesians to generally be friendly (and it's normal to sometimes meet the insane-rude jerks), but Jogjakarta people are what you call "friendly times 100".

This post is going to be your guide to travelling in Jogjakarta, and if this is your first time planning a trip here, I hope this post can help you plan a good one. This is certainly not a complete list because I'm here on a limited time and I do need more to surf Jogjakarta and around, I have been to Jogjakarta five times in my life and there is just something so mysterious about Jogjakarta that I find each visit to be quite different.

It's time for me to start with my Jogjakarta travel diaries, but before I give you my Jogjakarta travel guide, I wanna kickstart the Jogja trip series with a story worth sharing. "Kind" and "humble" are two of the most perfect words to describe Jogjakarta and on the third day of Jogjakarta trip, together with the new friends I made: Surya and Herlin, we went to have a relaxing quality time over good coffee and good food at the highly talked about Warung Kopi Klotok at Pakem, Jogjakarta. It's totally a humble and good one!

Spent my last night in Jogjakarta at the gorgeous Cangkringan Villa and Spa at Jalan Merapi, Sleman, my Arum Dalu villa was super gorgeous but I am going to talk about it more in an individual post.

Do you know what I love about Hong Kong coffee shops besides their awesome coffee? The fact that most of them have bonsoy! Ever since coming back from my latest Australia trip, I prefer to consume either either soy or almond based milk with my coffee, and trust me I am this guy who brings his own soy or almond milk to the coffee shop in Jakarta and have them infused for me LOL, too bad it's hard for Jakarta coffee shops to accomodate this because the cost can be too high and Indonesians are mostly cheap (sorry not sorry but that's the fact I heard from coffee shop owners too), not all of them want to spend extra IDR 15k for soy or almond milk.
