Lady was born  in Bogor, but at the age of six she moved to Padang in West Sumatera until she finished primary school. She moved back to Bogor to continue her study until she finished high school. Lady recently got a scholarship from YCM's donors to continue her study at a local university. She enjoys working in the field, meeting new people and exploring new places as well as learning about cultures. She decided to join Bogor Tours when she heard about the internship program in Bogor Tours from her friend.

 

Through Bogor Tours she believed that she could get more opportunities to develop a lot of skills and reach her full potential to finally pursue her biggest dream which is helping her mother to own a decent house to live in. Lady’s passion for culture is reflected through  her traveling experiences in places in North Sumatera such as Rumah Gadang, Lembah Anai and Danau Singkarak. She has also explored Yogyakarta, Semarang, Bali, Bandung, Baduy in West Java (the indigenous tribe area of Banten province), and many places in and around Bogor. Working in the field and learning about culture has opened up her mind and given her different perspectives including an appreciation for other cultures.

 

Being a tour  guide for Bogor Tours, Lady has not only improved her communication skills and working towards her savings, but she is also continuously improving her knowledge about Indonesian cultures. By learning and promoting Indonesian culture, Lady is motivated to inspire the other Indonesian youth to also proactively appreciate and preserve their cultural heritage.
