Earlier this year, after having gone on a vacation (in February), I found that my habit of listening to podcasts and reading books had been broken. During my commute, I didn’t feel like listening to podcasts or reading books anymore. Most of the time, I spent on just listening to music.

When I work from home, there isn’t a set time to read book, so usually I don’t read. However, when working in office, I usually use the time for commuting to either listen to podcast or to read. Even so, this year, I felt less motivated to read books, but I discovered and read some great books.

Around end July-early August, I went for a trip with my family to visit places around North Sumatra in 5 days. We started from Medan and my dad drove us around to visit (in order): Siantar, Samosir, Sapo Juma, and Berastagi.
