Tranquility
in the Wilderness

Living in Jakarta—an overpopulated megacity where the bright lights flashed your eyes throughout the nighttime and the fumes from hundreds of thousands of vehicles clogging the streets polluted the humid air—for the majority of my life, the elements synonymous to the environment and nature were foreign to me.

When I am around nature, I feel alive.

The crunching sound of the grass with every step, the ripples of the rocky stream, the chirping of birds in the background... nature never fails to relax my soul.

I've gained an appreciation for the calmness and tranquility I experience when around nature, offering a contrast to the fast-moving, boisterous city.
