A series of flights, farms, old buildings and windmills that took us to Bratislava.
Finally!
It’s traveling time! The long flight, the long wait and the not-so-long drive from Jakarta to Bratislava.
Few Indonesians know about Bratislava. Yet, my days there were actually very enjoyable and memorable.
I went to Bratislava, the state capital of Slovakia, as part of an art group. It was August and a time for the annual Summer Festival in Bratislava. First, let’s get one thing straight: I am not a musician, nor am I a dancer. I was there in a supporting role, helping in the administrative side of things, but mostly in documentation and publication.
The group is called Manikam Khatulistiwa. Founded in Bandung in 2009, among its members are talented artists from Bandung and neighboring areas. The group is dedicated to preserve and develop various art forms and traditions of Indonesia and to educate the younger generations. The group has performed in many places and events in Indonesia and abroad, presenting traditional and modern music, dances, plays, and poetries.
