Parkour and Adventure

Dec 31 st  2018 A friend of mine from TOFU Parkour Malaysia came to Surabaya on that day. His name is Bernard Lim . It's really nice to meet him again after LCG 2017  and PKMY End Year Jam 2017 . After picking him up at Juanda International Airport around 03:00 PM, we took a rest for a while in my place.

31 Des 2018 Hari ini saya kedatangan seorang teman dari  TOFU Parkour Malaysia  yang bernama Bernard Lim . Sungguh senang rasanya bisa kembali berjumpa dengan dia setelah di LCG 2017 dan PKMY End Year Jam 2017 . Setelah menjemput dia di Bandara Juanda sekitar pukul 15.00, kita beristirahat sejenak di kos saya.

Sejak ±pukul 9 pagi; saya, Andreas, dan Jibrel sudah bersiap-siap di terminal kedatangan Bandara Juanda. Hari itu, 17 Agustus 2017, adalah hari yang cukup spesial. Selain karena bertepatan dengan HUT kemerdekaan RI, hari itu juga Parkour Surabaya kedatangan 3 orang tamu dari Singapore : Koh Chen Pin (CP) , Sulaiman, dan Zack. Mereka datang untuk meramaikan acara Parkour Festival Surabaya 2017 . Dan khusus CP, dia juga bakal menjadi juri di kompetisi freestyle. Namun sebelum disibukkan dengan segala hiruk-pikuk acara pada tanggal 21-23 Agustus, tentunya kita berenam ingin refreshing dulu sejenak.

Since ±9.00 AM in the morning; Andreas, Jibrel, and I had been getting ready at the arrival terminal of Juanda International Airport. That day, August 17 th 2017, was a special day. Beside coinciding with National Day of Indonesia, on that day Parkour Surabaya had 3 special guests from Singapore : Koh Chen Pin (CP) , Sulaiman, and Zack. They came to enliven Surabaya Parkour Festival 2017 , and CP himself would be one of the four judges in freestyle competition. But before we’re busy with all the event uproar on 21 st  - 23 rd August, we obviously wanted to refresh our mind for a moment.

There were only Brex, Andreas, and I who were lounging on the beach with mat covered. It was around 9 PM, and everything around us was almost completely dark, while the light source was only from our mobile phone and the vague light from other camping tents. For the second time in my life, finally I could feel the outdoor-overnight-staying, far from the city hustle-bustle, something that I hadn’t experienced yet since 8 th grade school.

Hanya ada saya, Brex, dan Andreas yang saat itu tidur-tiduran di atas pasir pantai beralaskan matras. Waktu itu sekitar pukul 9 malam, dan keadaan di sekeliling hampir gelap gulita, sumber cahaya pun hanya dari HP serta penerangan samar-samar beberapa tenda orang lain yang juga camping. Untuk kedua kalinya dalam hidup akhirnya saya bisa merasakan bermalam di alam bebas, jauh dari hiruk-pikuk perkotaan, sesuatu yang belum saya alami lagi sejak kelas 2 SMP.
