So in the midst of all the craziness in the world, I had the chance to sit with brilliant minds of the tech industry in Indonesia. I shared the stage with Crystal Widjaja (yes, to those of you wondering: THE Crystal Widjaja from Gojek). She's the co founder of Generation Girl (the Kpop band is [...]
Eid Mubarak to you all!!! It is a strange time that we’re in right now isn’t it? I had a great laugh looking at all the photos of family imams and their sticks. Wait, that sounded wrong. I meant the batons they hold while giving khutbah. Like these ones: People do get creative huh? 😂 [...]
The blessed month is finally here! Eventhough we all are celebrating it a bit different than we normally would, I hope we have more time to reflect and take full advantage of what we can do from meal planning, ibadah planning as well and reorient our routine to maximise the goodness and kindness we do [...]
Hello from the most popular "home tourism" spot where you can find me at these past few days, my dining table (that also doubles as my office)! How is everyone coping with the home quarantine? I am handling it relatively well. *literally the next second* Can you believe we have crossed the first week of [...]
I have been living away from home more number of years than I did living with my parents and that's part of adulting right? Yes, but technically I didn't go through the full extent of it. Back in boarding school and uni days I lived away from home, but I never had to scout for [...]

Guess where I was from. Go on, give me your best shot. I just came back from GM Klang. Yes, the wholesale mall. I was dragging myself there because my aunt and Tok (my grandma) wanted to go. I don't know if you all knew this but I am a creature of habit. I like [...]
I was engrossed in my current read, a biography about Elon Musk when I started having this question about my current commitments. Today in particular was not a great day. I have been so busy because we’re thinking of moving Pod to Indonesia and was flying in and out almost every 2 weeks. On top [...]
Hey guys! I am really excited for the long weekend. I am going to finish a book this weekend. I know, I know. Sounds really ambitious but you know what they say, aim for the moon and you may land on the stars. Or is it the sun? Anyway, if you're here to know how [...]
“Nadia, for this round of Jakarta trip, is it okay if I stay in another place”? said Yingteng, my co founder one fine day. “WAIT, WHAT?!?!?! WHY?!?! Why don’t you want to stay in the same place with me?! Was it because I booked that horrible cheap place with the itchy mattress the last time [...]
