To all my friends
Hope you had great Holiday time &
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2 0 1 2


Born on the island of Morotai, Indonesia, raised at Sorong, Papua Irian Jaya, my home-place for now is The Hague where the Queen resides ... and I enjoy the sunset views from my penthouse (see pic).

Because of my trip to Javanese South-coast's at Pelabuhan Ratu, West-Jawa I entered VirtualTourist to meet UKIRSARI who had a very special photograph of Room 308 at the Samudra Beach Hotel. I was in the same room for a remarkable, mystyerious and extraordinary visit and, where my life changed at that moment ...

I'm still travelling my mystery named the "Going South - Going Mystic" tour.

My trips around the world includes my working-trips for about 20 fashion-years, as hair and make-up artist. The most beautiful trip was to Antiqua, Caribean, ... the most dangerous one to Costa Rica and all its kind of crawling little creatures. The best trip ever: to Singapore & Penang some years ago. It took me back to my "mother-country Indonesia"; included the heat, smells, jungle sounds ... and my "pulang-kampung" (return-journey homewards) began.

With some unique, sacred world spots, like Parangtritis and the Komodo Island where we sailed to from Labuhanbajo Nusa-tenggara, the macabre Toraja Highlands, where humans are living for the death, and the very interesting Orang Tengger, living in the Tengger Highlands, East-Java!

My last trip was to THAILAND in February 2012 where I got a bit bored during my stay ... it is because of my brother, living at Macau, China, to agree again for a visit to Thailand.

So Sending ByeBye from Macau - Hongkong - Zhuhai - Bangkok - Pattaya

... hope you may find some useful, nice tips and,
will understand my not that educated English,
tnx for dropping by, greets RoyJava

"My" Lighthouse

It's the lighthouse of Scheveningen, harbour, and sea-resort of The Hague - Holland, to enjoy the beach every summer includes its sunset. Left head of the lighthouse is the magnificent beach of the Southern Shores, in Dutch & Bahasa Indonesia -> Zuiderstrand = Pantai Selatan ...

Whenever want to visit the royal The Hague, governmental city and capital of South-Holland, sneak into my VT The Hague contribution. Geographically along West-coast of the Netherlands, and still my home-town. It's a dynamic city along the North-sea, where the Dutch Queen resides.

My Painting

See the Female Divine where "Going South - Going Mystic" is all about! It is the Javanese South-Sea Spirit-Queen, still honoured along Javanese South-coast; matriarchy out of ancient times. Nature still was deeply involved with humans to become one with nature. In old times you just walked into the very right spot, at the very right time, with the very right feeling ...

"Suara dari Samudra Selatan", RoyJava oil-on-linen painting (40-50 cm). Translated "Feature Out Of Southern Ocean", painted/copyrighted by RoyJava in 1996 (free to VT). The idea for this painting originated from the legendary South-coast of Java ...

My Javanese Aunt

Sitting here next to my dearest, Javanese aunt at Sendang Biru beach, near Pulau Sempu, Southern East-Java. So curious after my RATU KIDUL passion, I told her there's hardly anything to find about this legendary Spirit-queen ... "because the myths & legends do keep the Javanese legend very alive" ... my aunt admitted.
