MY BUDGET FRIENDLY TRIPS TO 30 COUNTRIES

Travel is a less important spending priority for me before. It is only ten years after I started working when I had my first overseas travel. Enjoying my first travel experience, my dream of exploring the world did not stop there. As of January 2023, I have been to 30 countries and I can't wait for my next travel adventures.

Gudeg The main ingredient of this dish is unripe jackfruit cooked with coconut and sugar (jackfruit stew). Other ingredients include garlic, chili and other spices.

They served it with steamed rice, chicken meat and crispy beef skin, all mixed together in one plate. Wijilan area is the center of Gudeg restaurants because all its restaurants are offering different varieties of this cuisine. You can easily find this area as it is only few meters away from The Kraton of Yogyakarta, one of Yogyakarta's tourist destinations, a palace where the official s...
