Home sweet home

An e-mail from somebody thanking me for posting pictures of Rumbai (and vicinity).

Wow, your pictures meant a lot to me. After living in Rumbai for four years, I'm devastated that no one in my family thought to take pictures of things that we saw everyday. I haven't been to Indonesia in ten years, but this summer I took a trip with my family to China. It was the first time since Indonesia that I had been back to Asia. Now I am all of a sudden so homesick for Indonesia and no one around me understands, except for my family. Thank you again for having those pictures posted.

What to reply? Tell her I'm planning a trip home this December and promise to take more meaningful shots? Ah, home sweet home. After three years, I wish I could stay longer than two weeks.

Hai, Di, nanya ya, biasanya pake biro mana beli tiketnya? I've been pampered all these previous trips home, never actually went to buy the ticket by myself. The travel agent the company used usually came up with a very ridiculously high number.
