They used to live in Indonesia when still young and the memory of living in Indonesia still lasts till present time.

They hold a gathering once a month.

Renai Circulation by Kana Hanazawa

Renai Circulation ~ Rainych (cover)

Rainych specializes Japanese song cover. A lot of Indonesians like K-Pop, some of them prefer J-Pop.

Yeah, J-Pop sounds cool and fresh, doesn’t it?

This is how local Indonesians do when encountering a foreign tourist. Asking so many questions, including private ones. ^_^

It’s about getting used of something, or improvement in particular field.

About BEFORE and AFTER

For example:

BEFORE:

Generally Indonesian knew nothing about computer, coding, bitcoin, photoshop, video editing etc. including FLAT EARTH 😂😂😂

AFTER:

And then we got in touch with the west. Finally we know those stuff.

What about westerners and other foreigners in case of Smile?

BEFORE:

They rarely smiled except with their peer groups or those who are close to them.

AFTER:

They got in touch with Indonesians, and voila, they smile more than ever.

Let’s take an example: Maia

BEFORE 👇

AFTER 👇

Clara

BEFORE 👇

AFTER 👇

What about Indonesians? Most of them are at the stage of AFTER, except a few people.

Me for example.

Me so far is always at BEFORE stage i.e. not good enough at Smiling 😂😂😂

Because I’ve always had only a few friends 😂😂😂

But ironically, if it comes to hanging out with kids or teenagers, I can even be a clown. 😂😂😂

So…. every one of you basically is GOOD at SMILE. 😎

If we see food rating videos with Indonesians, we sometimes think “is this rated fairly?”.

Anyway this video contains non Indonesian, so we may have an assumption that the food is rated fairly.

Yet the other videos with Indonesians in it (usually as a host) the food rate is relatively the same as in this video: positive. Even those Indonesians urge to rate the food as it is. No problem even if the rate is 3/10 for example.

This content costs a lot of money I guess. Indonesia is called “Mather’s Land”. All those bride’s crowns are big enough, except for Javanese crown. And the different thing is there is ‘pencil tattoo’ on her forehead.

What does it mean?

In order to present a cool content, creativity and new things emerge.

“Asking a stranger to continue the singing”. Not sure who initiated it, it could be from local, or from foreign. But it’s nice to see something new.

Girl: “if it’s hard (for you) to quit thinking of me …. “

Guy: “… just do it slowly”

Girl: “Okay dude, just drive slowly for your safety okay. Bye.”

It’s just an opinion by the girl. I have no idea. I haven’t been to those 3 cities. You decide.

Interestingly the guy says that Java island has the most bakeries in the world if measured per 1 km square.

It reminds me of a Dutch website mentioning: Indonesia ~and Japan~ belong to western race. (common ancestor?). Same race eat the same food?

We don’t have wheat farm. It’s imported from, among others, Ukraine.

We’ve lost most of our own history.

Owwww…. he has got used with spicy food!

Once you get used to sambal, you might be an addict of sambal or spicy food.

This is the case of a number of foreigners whom I’ve watched their videos.

Not all, but there are a lot of Indonesians require sambal in their meals, otherwise they’ll feel something is ‘missing’.

Besides the hot taste, the point of sambal is its variety of taste aroma according to different ingredients: garlic, onion, pepper, terasi, tomato, soy bean sauce, even raw mango etc.
