Urut-urutan video diatas disematkan khas untuk pemirsa-pemirsa- diseantero Nusantara.
Video kedua diatas menunjukkan kisaran Kota Pontianak, tempat lahir kuliner kondang Nex Carlos. The crux of the trip is called tebengan or boncengan i.e to hitch a ride in a vehicle without paying for it called hitchhiking in English. The landscape in West Kalimantan is very much similar to that in Malaysia. The trip starts from Pontianak the largest city in West Kalimantan. It reminds me very much of a trip I took by car about 35 years ago up north to Kedah in Peninsula Malaysia. Malaysia and Indonesia share very similar tropical greenery and mountain landscapes.
Now I begin my narrative in English. Today has been a wet and cold morning. Entertaining myself with watching old videos from Youtube. Quite a boring pastime actually. Honestly Youtube doesn't have that great a collection of videos. But we just have to make do with what we have I guess. I wonder during my parents' or great grandparents' day, what did they do as a pastime. There wasn't any TV let alone computers to wiggle our fingers.
I think back about the trips I have taken along the west coast of Peninsula Malaysia when I was much younger. As long as I do not open my mouth I am safe. In short never engage in small talk only talk that is very necessary. This is commonly called self-preservation.
