Review: Staycation at Best Western Premier The Hive, East Jakarta

Posted on by Marya The BeauTraveler

Last month, I got the bad news about one of my friends getting terribly ill in Bogor. He was one of my ex-colleagues from the first airlines where I worked professionally. For that reason, my former colleagues and I arranged a surprise visit to his place on the 12th of this month.

The universe conspired as I got the invitation from Best Western Premier The Hive in East Jakarta to have a staycation the day before I got scheduled to go to Bogor. It was actually a perfect time, since I’m personally more familiar to get to Bogor from Jakarta instead of going there directly from Bandung.

So in this post, I’m gonna share with you the review of my staycation there. If some of you are currently planning to stop by Jakarta for a visit, you might as well want to take Best Western Premier The Hive for consideration to stay.

Hello there, all beautravelers!

It’s April 11th, and you know what that means? Yup, according to What You Could Get In The City For $10 schedule, it’s time for the queen to speak about her wisdom!

When I started this project earlier in February, I was actually planning to write about Bandung, but then I had to spend my time in Jakarta the whole February and the first half of March, so I thought, why don’t I make Jakarta instead? After all, it’s the capital city of Indonesia anyway.

So, there you go! 😀

Review: Brun Brun Matte Creme Mini Lipstick Set 2 & 3

Posted on by Marya The BeauTraveler

Recently, a new store opened around my apartment. And surprisingly, they sell make-up and accessories in such affordable price and excellent quality!

For people like me who easily get distracted by lipstick even though I probably have a lipstick in similar shade back home, this store is paradise. It’s called Brun Brun Paris, and despite the brand has Paris on it, they actually claim as a platform to nurture local communities and provide french inspired design in their goods.

After some research, I’ve found out that their manufacturer is PT. Sophie Paris Indonesia. The name might ring the bell for some of you, but for those who aren’t familiar with Brun Brun Paris, then this one’s for you! 🙂

Her name is Anna Karenina.

The first time I met her, I thought she would give me a hard time with her intimidating look. It was during a job interview in the previous company that I used to work for.

I didn’t have any experience as a sales person before, but despite everything, I finally landed the job in this company and she had become my direct supervisor. Never thought that I would find a soul sister in her. There was Om Frans, one of

There was Om Frans, one of our colleagues who actually saved our phone numbers under the name of Anna-Marya just because we were THAT attached with one and another.

On 6th March 2017, she has turned 30. And to welcome her 30s, she’s got a special project that you can participate in and we hope you can!
