One Day Seminar @ Gadjah Mada University (UGM)

Well, one of the reasons I went to Jogja was to make a presentation at a joint-seminar held by INAKOS (International Association of Korean Studies in Indonesia), Gyeongsangbukdo, Jogjakarta Province, and Gadjah Mada University. 

Gee..I was so busy that I didn't take pictures during the seminar. Ok..it's lunch time...and we're having a great time discussing and 'chatting' with other presenters.

..time to go to other places...while staying in Jogjakarta. 

It's at the main hall of UGM. 

What's the seminar about? Yup.....that's what it was all about. 

As the night fell, we gathered at the outdoor dining area at Hyatt Hotel. 

Some presenters and guests from Indonesia and Korea gathered having a light dinner by the pool to celebrate the success of that day's seminar. 

Ok....Kombe. Salut. Tos. untuk kita semua. 

Staying @ Hyatt Regency Jogjakarta

Finally, after 7-hour train ride to Jogja, I was pampered by the luxuriously lush Hyatt Regency. 

Alhamdulillah, I could take a good rest at this hotel. (which is actually...just 3 km away from my house *chuckles*)

I arrived at around 5, checked in..and checked my room out which turned out to be quite good.

Had my own veranda.... *(yup, I've been in Seoul for almost ...4 years..and....visiting Jogja for a temporary short visit...was like a bliss and a bless, and...not to mention..how I got myself pampered in the hotel)

and other facilities which quite enough to pamper my fatigue of being exposed to the hustle bustle of the city.

What a great view down below....with its green lawn under the quintessentially tropical coconut trees.

 

Gee..I almost forgot that I come from Jogja myself...ㅋㅋㅋ what an irony. 

But really....having lived in Seoul for almost 4 years always makes me 'miss' Jogja in the tropics.^^  

And..to top it off....with an ample amenities that the Hyatt Regency provides....

what more could I expect from this? 

What a bliss.  

and...just take a look at this view. 

Or..having breakfast by the pool in the bright sunny morning in Jogjakarta. yes..Jogja Jogja Jogja. 

Hyatt Regency really spoils its guests. 

My 2-night stay at Hyatt did not let me take a dip into this invitingly invigorating swimming pool.^^ 

hmmm ...maybe next time.  

In the meantime...I cherish my stay at Hyatt Regency Jogjakarta..... 

...with its dream-like qualities... 

the picture does not lie. It's what it is. and...gee....how I always miss Jogja in the tropics.^^

고맙습니다. Thanks.
