Idul Fitri di India

Tahun lalu gw dapet tugas kantor di Pune, India selama 2 bulan. Ini untuk pertama kalinya gw melaksanakan puasa romadhon 1 bulan penuh & idul fitri di negeri orang. Awal dan akhir Romadhon di sini 1 hari setelah Arab Saudi, jadi gak perlu sidang itsbat lagi. Jadi pada saat di Indonesia udah mulai puasa, di India belum mulai puasa & pada saat di Indonesia udah lebaran, gw masih puasa.

Rencana awalnya sih gw mau merayakan Idul Fitri di Mumbai aja. Sholat Ied di masjid Jami Mumbai & terus ke KJRI buat cari ketupat, hehe. Tapi ada temen orang India Muslim yang ngajakin gw lebaran di rumah ortunya di pinggiran Mumbai & ikut mudik ke kampungnya di daerah Furus, kira2 200 KM sebelah selatan Mumbai. Tentu aja tawarannya langsung gw setujui. Biar gw gak bengong sendirian & gw juga jadi tau gimana orang India merayakan idul fitri.

Finally I write a blog :D

Hmmm.....
When I was an elementary student, my nightmare in exam is Bahasa Indonesia, because there's a test called "mengarang". This test is writing a story, sometimes minimal 1 folio page. I had some difficulties to find some idea and to create some good sentences. I try to write the blog to prove that I also can write :)
Actually I planned to write my first blog when I traveled to India on June-Aug 2013 to tell my experiences there, but I didn't have mood to write :D After going back to Indonesia for a few weeks, finally I have time to write my first blog.
My wive told me that there are a lot of thing I can tell and then I think so. I just want to share my traveling experience here. Please enjoy :)
