The first songs that i like would be Sky!Sky!Sky! and Snow Dance from Beginning of The Road album. Then i found out Depacla, their work doing classical songs, it was stunning too. Their latest album are One, need some time before i realized the single and some other tracks [on One] are something sounds familiar on my mind.

Few times ago, i was visiting a temple located at the west end of Bali island called Segara Rupek Temple. For who was raised outside of Bali, the name of Segara Rupek are something unfamiliar. Even though since last few years I have visited many famous temples in Bali, even the one that located in Nusapenida island, Segara Rupek is a new one for me. the island of Java, a view from the road to Segara Rupek Segara Rupek temple located in Gerokgak District, Buleleng Regency.
